Results - Week 27

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Wow.

Now THAT was a finish!

If you knew how close things actually were to, well, things exploding, you would have been on the edge of your seat too! ;)

As is though, that didn’t happen. But it was certainly exciting on the bottom, on top and really all the way through “the middle” of the pack!!

In the end though, we are saying goodbye to two contestants.

One of them we knew who it was going to be from the start - she announced her sacrifice as an entry.

The other, if you asked me early this morning, I would have said we were losing her. If you asked me 15 minutes before the poll closed, I would have said, “I have no f-ing idea!” There was quite a bit of well deserved love thrown in that direction.

Being that this is Week 27, I think it’s fair to say that both of them deserve every bit of pride in themselves for making it this far.

Goodbye to our sacrifice - michikatinski
and to whirlgig

I don’t think that I need to tell you this, but I hope you hang around and Home Game (and that’s not just because I want more people so I can keep posting those links. :p)

Thank you for helping to make this season special.

That was absolutely incredible. Thank you.

Hearing messages like that are the reason I do this.

That was so personal and wonderful to listen to. Sorry you are leaving this week and thank you for all the terrific entries!

Thank you.

Michikatinski should already know that I'm very sad that she's gone. She's a very talented writer and someone I thought I'd see go all the way to the end. RL steps in again though *sigh*

And whirlgig... I have had a blast reading your stuff. You're fun and interesting, your creativity never ceased to amaze me. I'm shocked that you're going this week. I hope you stick around.

It's getting really hard at this point in the season. I honestly can't remember any previous season where I've seen the top 40 be this strong. Anyone who goes is a loss.

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

Agreed.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Big, huge sadface. Michikatinski is a great friend and it bums me out that she won't be continuing the journey with us :-(. And whirlgig is somebody who always brought fun and different takes to the prompts.

It's never easy to lose people. And the further we go in this nutty place, the harder it gets. :-(

I will consider this yet another opportunity to announce that michikatinski is one of the finest and most awesome people in the entire fucking universe. Just sayin'.

[lawchicky.livejournal.com]

Two more great writers- I wish both of you well. I've really enjoyed your entries!

[halfshellvenus.livejournal.com]

What she said!

[michikatinski.livejournal.com]

And, inspired by whirlgig, here's my own thank you to you lovely bunch o' Idol peeps.

Goodbye to both of you. You'll be missed.

[jacq22.livejournal.com]

Sad goodbyes.... and as the quotes above, I heartily endorse, 'anyone who goes is a loss.' An amazing pool of talent, creativity and sheer literary genius. This is a very special group of people.
