Vote - Week 6 & SCI Topic 5

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

When it’s a cast of hundreds, it takes longer to get to know people - but you also have the advantage of being able to relax into the competition. With a mini-season, there is more of a chance to interact, but when the cuts come, they are brutal.

There are advantages and disadvantages in everything.

The one good thing about the main competition, is that when you leave you are sticking around in the ranks of Second Chance Idol. Lately that has meant even being in the same post as you were before, just further down! But it also puts you dangerously close to being out “for real”. Which is somewhere that you don’t want to be!

Before we get to the poll, we did have one contestant who did not make the deadline, and will be adding to the SCI talent poll: [livejournal.com profile] occasionally

Which is a shame, but hopefully she will be back next week in SCI and fight her way into the competition once more!

As for the rest of you, that just means that there will be 9 contestants leaving us this week! Yeah, I said that. Again. People might start thinking there is a pattern to this thing!

The poll closes Monday, March 4th at 9pm EST! it’s high stakes time, so make sure to get out there and support your favorites: read, comment and vote! (and tell a friend or two to do the same!)

Good luck to everyone!



[Poll #1899361]




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

Awww, Second Chance! You are just so earnestly going about your business... of course I’m going to stop and buy something... oh wait, sorry, I’ve gotten SCI and the Girl Scouts confused again! SCI doesn’t have delicious boxes of cookies. Or maybe they do... *looks around* I think they are hiding them.

Which is just one more reason to vote them out!!

Unfortunately, three of them denied us that act, and missed the deadline, eliminating themselves! Leaving us are: [livejournal.com profile] momebie, [livejournal.com profile] ohelectricshock and [livejournal.com profile] sweeny_todd - which were not names that I expected to be writing down as leaving us anytime soon. Real life, it can happen to anyone!

With them out of the way, we will be losing 7 contestants from the ranks of SCI, and the most dangerous place to be, just gets a little more exciting!

The poll closes Monday, March 4th at 9pm EST! See the poll above for the rest of the spiel!

Good luck to everyone!

Good luck, everyone!

I'm guessing "unknown LJ tag" is [livejournal.com profile] momebie?

The polls are so small!

[identity profile] xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
I was just thinking the same thing!

[identity profile] porn-this-way.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
That [UNKNOWN LJ TAG], what a damn slacker!

Edit: Oh wait, NVM, you fixed the html booboo while I was busy making fun of it :P

And they are almost even, too!

Don't worry, SCI! I've visited some actual Girl Scouts and purchased cookies to donate to your cause!

I am an lj tag of mystery. Wrapped in an enigma. Wrapped in an awesome rack.

[identity profile] kathrynrose.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Damn. Now I want Girl Scout cookies.

[identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
I'd have to see a photo to confirm the third statement, but otherwise I fully agree!

My rack, she is darn good too!

[identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yay! Let there be cookies!

[identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Me too... *sigh*

I especially like the ones made with real Girl Scouts.

[identity profile] kandigurl.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, I can fit the entire poll on my screen...

[identity profile] heeroluva.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
I've been craving them too. Somehow every one of my coworkers has boys.

[identity profile] kandigurl.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Now you just look like a FOOL.

[identity profile] porn-this-way.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
And this is different from usual because...?

34 H right ovah here, baybay!

I didn't say it was different. I just said it was TRUE. Bitches be trippin'.

(For the purpose of this comment, I'm a gangsta now. Or something.)

SOME PEOPLE >:O

Great thread! For yay boobs!

[identity profile] impoetry.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Woo hoo!

[identity profile] kandigurl.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
For yay boobs indeed.

[identity profile] ohelectricshock.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Sigh, I just couldn't make it happen this week. Things are getting crazy on my end and I endeavoured to write something fun but then one day turned into another of packing and downsizing everything I own and I just ran out of time. Well LJI, it's been a slice! *Salutes*

I'll still be lurking around the GR though, because you are all such fantastic folks and I love to see what everybody is talking about in here :)

[identity profile] sweeny-todd.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
ah crap... I got the times mixed up. oh well. it was fun!

[identity profile] xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
The local troop is selling them outside of our 7-11. So far I've resisted temptation...

[identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
You got H-bombs? Oy!

I'm happy with my C+, LOL.

[identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Boobies! ;)

[identity profile] cacophonesque.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry folks. Lost track of days. Was so busy keeping up with housework and playing with an adorable baby and busting butt on kettlebell and getting back to yoga practice that I thought today was going to be Wednesday, but instead it was Thursday. And while usually even when M isn't around to help out with baby during the day, his parents are... except not today! I was flying solo with a crankypants.

But I'll give SCI a go! M was kind of bummed when he heard I missed deadline, because he's a good SO and wants to support me in my hobbies.

It's okay though! Because I've still been awesome this week.

[identity profile] sweeny-todd.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
Also, I have never had girl scout cookies. Maybe one day

[identity profile] kandigurl.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
I once lost some weight and got down to a DDD. Which always feels like a ridiculous thing to say.

[identity profile] heeroluva.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Wow! Someone needs to send you a box!

[identity profile] sweeny-todd.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
yea :-), I read about them! they are in the peanuts comics, right?

[identity profile] heeroluva.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 04:49 am (UTC)(link)
Probably? I'm sure they've been mentioned lots of places. I'd offer, but I haven't seen anyone selling any this year.

[identity profile] sweeny-todd.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
haha, no worries, I will look out for something similar here.

[identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 05:35 am (UTC)(link)
What?? How could you not have had Girl Scout cookies? So many yummy flavors...

[identity profile] sweeny-todd.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
we don't have girl scouts in Aus! and I don't think they have them in Japan either...

[identity profile] jem0000000.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
Oooo, cookies! *noms*

[identity profile] jem0000000.livejournal.com 2013-03-01 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
If it helps, I can't. ;)

Although it would probably make a difference if I switched to the real computer....

ImageFor yay boobs indeed.

[identity profile] ecosopher.livejournal.com 2013-03-03 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
We have Girl Guides, though. And they sell cookies...

[identity profile] sweeny-todd.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
yeah, I used to be a girl guide. and while they did sell cookies, they were more dry, a.. to serve with tea type. They could have changed though.

[identity profile] ecosopher.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, even though I think they've diversified in their flavours, they're still fairly ordinary.

[identity profile] imafarmgirl.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 12:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Good luck to all.

[identity profile] shannon-elaine.livejournal.com 2013-03-04 04:30 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm seeing lots of ties so far!

[identity profile] pixiebelle.livejournal.com 2013-03-05 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
I'm going to be shunned here, but besides the fact the money goes to a good cause, I see nothing that special about Girl Scout cookies in particular. I support the cause, but the cookies themselves? Overpriced and a little ordinary lol
