Green Room - Week 11 - Weekend Edition

[clauderainsrm]

 My weekend has been fairly lousy. Which should make yours better by contrast!

How has it been going? 

There is a Second Chance topic: https://therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1028072.html   and the main competition topic: https://therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1028498.html

Last night also featured results from Week 10:  https://therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1028266.html

There is also a Home Game thread - https://therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1028659.html

One more thread is coming today, that I'll admit, was a bit of a surprise for me. But in a really good way!

Home Game - Week 11

[clauderainsrm]

 Hello there. 

If you have been eliminated, didn't sign up in the first place, or just feel like writing a little extra this week - we have a special place for you.

It's called The Home Game. 

No polls. No eliminations. 

You just write stuff and link it back here.  

Technically there is no deadline. But you should probably do them within the same time frame everyone else or risk getting missed. 

The topic for Second Chance this week is Shade
The topic for the main competition is Long Distance Dedication. 

For the Home Game, you can write for either or both!

Have fun!

100 Weeks

[clauderainsrm]

 When I looked at this mini season, I thought there was a chance we could have someone hitting 100 Weeks, but I thought it might be a long shot. 

For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, the 100 Weeks Club is the honor of having survived 100 Weeks of Idol.  Given that we've been going since 2006, you would think those numbers would be pretty high - but anyone who has been around for long enough can tell you, it's tough enough to survive any given week - much less do that 100 times!  

With this newest inclusion - we have *38 contestants* who have accomplished this goal.  

For those keeping score - Ro has a record, by a single week, over the late agirlnamedluna,  at 160. 

It's something to shoot for!  There are actually two people currently in the running who are breathing down the neck of that goal. 

The reason I was surprised is that I still think of this writer as being "New School Idol", and the fact that a new school contestant would already be entering the pantheon was strange to me.  

Every generation of Idol has their cheerleaders - the people who come in and really help define a season. She definitely did that from her very first weeks in the game, and has remained a strong presence. 

But it's true.  

Welcome to the 100 Weeks club:  (well, technically 105 as of this week) bleodswean !

Result - Write Off - Week 10

 For those who missed it,  the_eternal_overthinker  bowed out from the competition. Which means that they were eliminated and song_of_thea moves forward. 

 There was an entry written though - so make sure to check it out https://song-of-thea.dreamwidth.org/2562.html 

Never say die indeed!
