Vote - Round Two Part 2

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

A few words from clauderainsrm:

Twelve brave souls. Or is that foolhardy? At the end of the day, perhaps it's the same thing!

Those twelve have been the first to voluntarily step into the mouth of the lion, the belly of whale and the inside of the out.

They are the second class of Round Two, and the funny thing? There isn't a single name here that hasn't been heavily mentioned as a potential finalist.

You know what that means? That's right! Things are about to be shaken up!! :)

Of the 12, we are about to lose 4!!! Which means that your votes matter more than ever, and you don't have very long at all to read.
day
The poll will be closing Wednesday, May 11th at 10pm EDT! Why are you sitting around here??? Get moving! Read. Comment. Vote!

[Poll #1740123]

Oh, fuck, I was right about the number leaving. Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've read everything but I do not want to be one of the first people voting :P

[sharya.livejournal.com]

I guess we can always hope for some kind of new twist, right? Maybe the four will be lost... to some other tribe!

That's quite the group. Here's to hoping :/

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I pretty much doubt that seeing as we lost 5 in the last round 2 poll.

But yeah, this is not going to be a fun race to watch.

[sharya.livejournal.com]

We did lose quite a few, but in the last round, it was also very much a penalty situation - people got into round 2 because they didn't place high enough in the first round. So maybe this one will be different since it's volunteer?

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but everyone else who didn't volunteer is still going to have to do it next week, whereas everyone who ended up there last week got there because of their poll standings, it was still kind of random and dependent upon who they teamed up with.

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

Well isn't that all part of the "take a chance" theme we have this season?

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

LOL. I only guessed because of his ominous "We're closer to the top 25 than you think!" Eliminating 4 in this poll gives us the top 25.

I immediately thought you were accusing someone of being a little person who murders. >_> They can hide places. So many places.

[sra33.livejournal.com]

Ah crackers.... :\ And there's no way I can read all these entries. :'(

Gooood luck!!! ♥

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

OUCH!

This isn't going to be pretty.

:eeeeek:

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

What! Gary, this is not puppies and ice cream!

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

I was told there would be cake!

[hosticle-fifer.livejournal.com]

"Say there'll be punch and pie! That'll get people to volunteer!" :)

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

Damn, I wish someone had told me that before!

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

THE CAKE IS A LIE.

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

Our promised reward is merely a fictitious motivator!!!

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

A DELICIOUS metaphor.

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

A salacious edible!

So I've been keeping my therapist about LL Idol and about how wonderful the experience has been for my soul, and more recently, about all the shenanigans that have been going on with Intersections, Threesomes, Round Twos, etc., and he asked me, with a remarkable amount of seriousness, "Do you think the people in charge of this contest might really be sociologists?"

I wonder if he might be onto something.

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I have commented on the social experiment aspect of the game before! Particularly when we had the threesomes because it was interesting to see who still asked for help in the polls, and who decided not to even though they normally might have. :)

[i-17bingo.livejournal.com]

That was amazing to watch (and the discussion you got going regarding pimping was awesome)...

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I was thrilled so many people participated in that discussion!

[hosticle-fifer.livejournal.com]

At first glance, I thought he said "sociopaths".

[sharya.livejournal.com]

At first glance, I read it the same way as well :P

[i-17bingo.livejournal.com]

Kind of feels that way sometimes...

[applespicy.livejournal.com]

This one's going to be close. Wow.

[angelic-mystic.livejournal.com]

Wow! So many wonderful entries. And so many leaving. =0( Good luck everyone.

[rattsu.livejournal.com]

WTF is all I*m saying. WTF.

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

Every time he reveals another twist this season, I'm tempted to post a Replacements song that has a Gary-themed name. I resist, because its a little dirty, and I worry that people would think I was being insulting when I am just trying to communicate "Gary must be supremely excited about this new twist." :D

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

I was not happy when I saw just how many of my favourites signed up for this. Losing four means we'll lose someone I love. Guaranteed.

Now I am thinking about who is left over for the next second round and I am Most Displeased.

[alephz.livejournal.com]

Brave AND foolhardy.

Grabbing the Sword of Damocles before it can fall on my head is what I call it.

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

Unavailable for like the next five hours. Best of luck everyone. Great stuff this week!

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

OMFG this is the most intense, nail-biting poll I've ever watched!

[vaguelyclear.livejournal.com]

I'm glad I wasn't around to watch it until close! Intense!

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

team_jessie came from behind to overtake joeymichaels and basric, and then those two kept overtaking each other and tying. INTENSE, I tell you!

[vaguelyclear.livejournal.com]

It's like watching a race or something where you're screaming at the TV, LOL.

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

That's exactly what it was like!

[vaguelyclear.livejournal.com]

LJ Idol is the new Extreme Sport.

[the-vernacular.livejournal.com]

I know, right?! I still keep refreshing it because I got so used to doing it for the past hour!

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I kept doing it for a little while after the poll closed, too. >.>

[redvelvetgrrl.livejournal.com]

damn, that was seriously unexpected

[i-17bingo.livejournal.com]

Come on, Gary... I need to go to bed now... my wife is getting cross (you wouldn't like her when she's cross)
