Vote - Week 2

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

A few words from clauderainsrm:

Welcome to Week 2!

This week was all about Deconstruction and from the entries over the past weeks I think it's pretty clear that this is an extremely talented group.
This is going to another difficult decision on choosing what entries to support.

Fortunately, you can vote for as many of them as you want!! Make sure that you leave comments as well to the entries that you loved, letting them know!

The contestant with the entry that the fewest votes from each tribe will be eliminated. Given that there is a new tribe this week, that means there will be one more person leaving us this time around.

The poll will be closing Tuesday Nov 16th at 9pm EST

Good luck to everyone!

Yikes! My tribe is so small!

[estelle.livejournal.com]

That was exactly my thought!

OH NOES!!

[emo-snal.livejournal.com]

!!!!! the entry linked by my name is the wrong entry!! ):

(which is my bad, I initially linked the wrong one and the mistake wasn't pointed out to me until 3:01 EST)

): ): ):

Re: OH NOES!!

I was wondering about that, I saw both of them when they went up and it seemed the more obvious choice as "the entry", but you went with the other one. Which was confusing, but it's not the first time you've picked the unlikely choice. :p
I figured you knew what you were doing!

I can't correct it in the main poll but I've added a note. Hopefully people will see it and go to the correct one.

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

Mmmm.... I've got a lot of reading to do! Eek.

[barrelofrain.livejournal.com]

I have less reading to do than I thought... lots of Byes this week.

[barrelofrain.livejournal.com]

Maybe Dr. Jeff has Dissociative Identity Disorder and therefore has been split into two tribes. ;)

[teaberryblue.livejournal.com]

I am about halfway through reading, sorry no comments from me, but there is some really good stuff so far!

[robertlyon.livejournal.com]

I've read a bunch of entries this week, but I seriously can't remember now even which ones they were....I think I am going to have to start to make a list of one's I've liked so I can vote easier.

[i-id.livejournal.com]

That is a lot of byes.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I know, right? There's like 50 or so! It's WAY to early for folks to use a bye (or just forget to submit their entry on time, and get an automatic bye) if they have any hopes of staying in for the long haul!

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Yikes. I'm in the new tribe and I have to admit to being a teensy bit scared this week.

Originally I looked at my old tribe and didn't see my name and was so confused. Then I realized I got moved to the new tribe.

This tribe business is confusing stuff this time around :P.

[belgatherial.livejournal.com]

My reaction exactly. Especially since there are several of my favourites in that tribe too.

Makes me nervous. ;)

*refrains from F5-ing constantly*

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

At least that many byes makes the reading easier.

[stormkitty.livejournal.com]

So if the count in my Idol folder on my ipod's mail client is right, I've got about 100 or so entries left to read when I get home. I think instead of trying to do it Sunday night, I'll catch up during the day on Monday.

Good luck everyone!

I'm guessing you subscribe to the topic post? I've tended to ignore the new features that LJ introduces, but that is a really clever idea.

[snarkerdoodle.livejournal.com]

Just for any who might be curious like I was, I counted the 'active' (non-bye) entries in each tribe -- these were the numbers, assuming I got them right:

Tribe 1 -- 43 entries.

Tribe 2 -- 22 entries.

Tribe 3 -- 56 entries.

Tribe 4 -- 31 entries.

Tribe 5 -- 21 entries.

[dizzy-writing.livejournal.com]

Interesting :) Now to decide if I should read from the biggest tribe first and get it out of the way, or start with the smallest so I can feel better about completely reading a whole tribe quick.

(Psst, Tribe Three rules! We're gonna eat tribes two and five, and have room left over for dessert!)

[dizzy-writing.livejournal.com]

I keep telling myself to not even look at the votes yet, just read entries and put my votes in. I look anyway though, and keep watching if I go up. Goal #1: get more vote than people that took a bye week.

[courtney-ke.livejournal.com]

hehe I know how you feel! Last week I was checking back all the time I was so nervous. This week, it's a little less (but still nervous haha)

[courtney-ke.livejournal.com]

Well... 3 of 5 done. *phew*

[vaguelyclear.livejournal.com]

Oh man, so many entries. Damn my without-warning hectic week preventing me from reading progressively :\

[viagra.livejournal.com]

You read my entry and that's what matters.

[lawchicky.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm very curious about the strategy there, especially since I was one of the people chosen to move tribes!

[kungfufighting.livejournal.com]

It seems that my entire tribe has my cold. That's a little bit hilarious. Perhaps it's more contagious than I suspected.... eek!

[millysdaughter.livejournal.com]

I am sure you have been warned about Internet viruses before now!

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Unless my eyesight's really gotten wonky AND excluding the new tribe, I don't see much difference in this week's tribes. Take Tribe 1, for instance -- most of those contestants were in that tribe last week. I'm also reading all the tribes as still mostly alphabetical, which makes sense, given the number of people. I know there are breaks here and there, but by and large, I don't see a huge difference :shrug:

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Er, never mind. I'm going to bed zzzzzz

[cacophonesque.livejournal.com]

I managed to read Tribe 5 tonight.
I feel bad that I'm not having the energy to make comments to people. Just feeling so drained. And maybe like I'm getting sick (can't happen. Stats midterm on Monday).

Will work my way through more tomorrow, methinks. Might be time for early bed tonight.

[dreamchaser.livejournal.com]

Good luck everyone!!!!

*goes off to get some reading done*

[sra33.livejournal.com]

INTERESTING!

[sra33.livejournal.com]

57 byes this week. Goodness....

And sadly I can't start reading them until tomorrow after school. I'll be sure to have my reading hat on at that time! :D

[strryeyedgrrl.livejournal.com]

Cheese and crackers, man. I've been down since Monday night with a flu that hit me like a bag of bricks upside my head. A trip to the grocery store today was the first time I left the house since Tuesday evening. Only yesterday did I start to come down from the cold medicine cocktail I took three days ago. I feel like I lost a month of my effing life.

Thank heavens it's early enough in the season that byes still exist. Check y'all next week! :)

[kittymichaels.livejournal.com]

Wait people had a chance to choose cometitors and nobody chose me?

BITES U

[gruesome]

No one wanted to compete against you.

For fear of the biting.

[viagra.livejournal.com]

Wow, I'd hate to be in the tribe where practically everyone took a bye. Oh, wait... shit.

[awriterswindow.livejournal.com]

I've read all of the first 2 tribes entries...so great! Onto the next! I didn't finish everyone's last week, but this week I'm going to make it happen!

[dance-of-flame.livejournal.com]

O.o I didn't vote and the ballot seems to think I have. Halp?

[snarkerdoodle.livejournal.com]

You can go to an individual poll (such as http://www.livejournal.com/poll/?id=1644216 for the first tribe) and there'll be a 'Fill out poll' link at the top of the poll -- click that and you'll get the poll "live" again, where you can change/make selections again.

You can do this anytime you want to edit a vote in a poll, as long as the poll is still 'open'.
