A few words from [livejournal.com profile] clauderainsrm:


Welcome to the Redux of Week 26.

For those of you living in a cave somewhere (or perhaps living in luxury with full access to the outside world), last week the remaining 17 contestants had to write 3 entries each. Then there was a vote and the each of their entries that finished last had to be overhauled. Some of them went with massive rewrites, some with a touch here or there, and still others started from scratch. All of those approaches, as far as the competition goes, completely valid. Which ones will give the best results though? I guess that is where you, and this week's poll come in!!

The lowest this week will have to rewrite everyone's entries from this week... OK, maybe not. But that would have been pretty funny!

Instead, we will be losing the bottom 3

Which, at this point, is kind of like picking which puppy you are going to kick.

(Note: I can't believe that I am saying this, but it looks like [livejournal.com profile] nyxocity has missed this week's deadline. Which means that she is leaving us this week. It is a very sad and anti-climatic departure on such an exciting run! Hopefully everything is OK.
The bottom two will be leaving us as a result of this poll.

Everyone is good at what they do, it's a matter of determining what you like the best - and are willing to come out to support! So read, comment, vote - and tell your friends to do the same (especially the first two, the last one never hurts, but I know ultimately people prefer the first two options!)

The poll will close Wed June 1st at 8pm EDT, the start of another month together. Will we see another?

OMG I am so glad I linked yesterday otherwise I would have joined nyxocity - I didn't think the deadline was until this evening!

*sad face for nyxocity*

Good luck to everyone remaining - the rewrites I've seen so far have been outstanding, so it's going to be another hard fought race.

I checked this morning and freaked because I thought it was this evening too!

Oh, well, drat. Consider this a write-in vote for [livejournal.com profile] nyxocity should she get her rewrite posted.

For some reason, I keep getting an "Access is Denied" message when I try to read your entry... Just letting you know, in case it's friends-locked or wrongly linked in the poll.

That'll explain the lack of comments since posting...

All sorted. Thanks.

Crap. I thought the deadline was tonight. :( Well, that is a very anti-climatic end to a run, isn't it?

Best of luck to you all! I'll be reading and commenting.

Shoot. I liked your writing.(still do)

I'm okay. Disappointed as all get out though. I'll just be over here kicking myself for thinking I had time to finish my entry this afternoon. My weekend has been crazy.

Yep, that's exactly what happened, I thought the deadline was tonight. :( I feel like an utter moron right now.

Your writing has improved so much over the season. Seriously, each week, your work has gotten stronger, richer and more impossible to look away from. I'm so bummed to see you out of the contest because I was really looking forward to reading what you were going to write in the coming weeks.

I know I encourage everyone to home game, but seriously, consider home gaming it. And please continue writing!

Hey, so, if you're bored, I shared my first four versions of my rewrite here (http://joeymichaels.livejournal.com/602917.html). #1, the fictional version, was never intended for serious publication, but is hopefully worth a giggle or two.

:( I figured you thought it was later. I'll miss reading your idol entries.

Bah, what a bummer! I thought I had until Monday morning my time to finish mine, but then when I checked again, I was like, "WHAT. 1PM?!" That's still Monday morning for me, but 3AM rather than 10AM.

Anyway, it sucks that you're out :( You've been a favourite of mine this entire season, so I'm really hoping you decide to Home Game it ♥

I am very sorry you missed the deadline... I've been reading you all along, even if I'm largely silent.

Don't kick yourself... it's how I ended up these last two seasons. Life just eats you up sometimes.

Sorry to see you slip out like that :(

I totally did too. I only checked because I wasn't able to finish last night, and I knew I'd need to set aside some time today.

I was legitimately surprised that the deadline was 1PM. Sneaky.

Home game for realz y/y?

Oh, man, what a bummer! I worried the deadline might get someone. I even emailed one personI was afraid didn't realise the deadline was at 1pm. I think maybe I should just email everyone next time!

Gary, is there going to be an immunity this week or has the jury served their purpose now?

Nooo [livejournal.com profile] nyxocity! :(

Glad I posted when I did because I thought the deadline was later as well... in fact, I'm so used to it being after I've gone to bed that I didn't even think to *check* when I got home from work yesterday!

Me too. I just thought it was Sunday midnight/Monday morning as usual. Good job that I'm an early poster and I decided to link instead of waiting to see if I could get someone to beta!
