therealljidolIt’s also interesting to watch debates cycle back around. It’s even more amusing to me to see them cycle back during the course of the same season!
On the subject of “pimping vs not pimping”, I am going to come out and do some recycling of my own - mainly, Idol’s position.
Which is, I don’t really care either way - but if you aren’t going to pimp yourself, please pimp Idol!
Why? Because there is a lot of great writing going on here, and new readers (and potential contestants) is what keeps this all happening!
We don’t, we can’t, exist in a vacuum. The more people who discover what is happening here - from you, the greater the chance that they will find someone else they love - and the greater the chance that someone else will send in someone who loves your stuff!
That’s how it works.
I don’t care if it’s a rec list, or simply a “go check everyone out!” - it’s all good, and more to the point, it’s all for the greater good! ;)
After all, part of being the winner tends to involve being the Ambassador of your Season of Idol. (Well, them and the Spirit) So, why not get started? :D

So, you should probably get started on those!

Date: 2012-07-06 03:05 am (UTC)Though honestly, at this stage, there's many many people who do. But I had you pegged early on :)
Thanks for including me, I really don't think I stand much of a chance... But I appreciate that you think so!

Date: 2012-07-06 03:14 am (UTC)I mean, well, thank you.
There's no way, though. The writers in this group are incredibly qualified. When I go, I'll be waving my fan flags like whoa, though!

Date: 2012-07-06 09:42 am (UTC)Er. Not that the idea of you winning is LOL! Just the goofball tone of the comment + me reading it in the Onceler's voice because of your icon = mega lulz. :P
