Vote - Week 6

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Knock Knock.

Who’s there?

Obvious reference that I said that I was going to make today

Obvious reference that I said that I was going to make today, who?

It’s that time again. Time for the polls!

Before we get to that, we do have to say goodbye to deza who, unfotunately, did not make the deadline. She shall most definitely be missed. (and I hope everything is OK!)

And yet, nothing is attached. What is happening? *consults Pocket Guide to Idol* Ah, yes. It’s a CONTESTANT ONLY vote. If you are currently a contestant in LJ Idol: Exhibit B, read the entries, make a list of your 30 favorites, and then send me that list to clauderainsrm@gmail.com

Can you send me more? I’d rather you didn’t. Could you send me less? I’d rather you didn’t do that either. But pick out what you like the best, and let me know.

We will be losing between 4 -8 contestants this round. (depending on where the dividing line ends up being)

I’m giving you extra time - until Monday, July 1st at 9pm EDT to send me that list! So there really is no excuse not to do it! Now get to reading! http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/666309.html

First!

Thanks for the extension, Gary. It's going to make it easier for me to get through them all.

[halfshellvenus.livejournal.com]

So, I guess we're trolling through the "Entry post" and seeing who showed up? :O

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Yep. That'd be it.

[porn-this-way.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, you tricksy hobbit! Here I was expecting tribes again.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

With Gary, one needs to expect the unexpected, which of course he expects us to expect, so it can get confusing now and then!

[agirlnamedluna.livejournal.com]

Gary, thou art evil.

[deza.livejournal.com]

Sorry guys. Worked this weekend, dealt with a heatstoking kid (her boss forgot to bring water to the carnival), worked a double shift today and had to put together a presentationfor town gov't movers and shakers ttomorrow. Oh and there was lawn mowing, dishes and laundry in there too. Maybe next go round.

[alycewilson.livejournal.com]

You'll be missed.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Woo! Contestant only time! And yay for extra reading time, too! :)

[meepalicious.livejournal.com]

Oh, no. Extension bad. I wanted to hide my entry as soon as possible. What if I locked it and, like, friended every single person? Would that be allowed? I'm terrified, y'all have no idea.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

It'll be fine! *hugs*

[kathrynrose.livejournal.com]

I guess my spreadsheet was off.

Or I can't count.

It could be that second one.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

You should have 50.

[poppetawoppet.livejournal.com]

On one hand, yay I can't obsess over the polls! On the other hand ohmygosh I don't know where I stand!


On the mysterious third hand, strangely calm

[agirlnamedluna.livejournal.com]

On second thought, do I still mail you 2 topics, Gary? Might as well include those with votes >.>

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[n3m3sis43.livejournal.com]

I am amused.

[alycewilson.livejournal.com]

Just got the "knock-knock joke" reference. Way to stay on top of the news, Gary! Do you think George Zimmerman's lawyer was a fan of the old SNL sketch, "Babs' Uvula"?

"Knock-knock, who's there?

"Babs' uvula."

"Babs' uvula, who?"

"I don't know, Babs."

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

On the one hand I'm not surprised -- I figured something like this was coming down the pike sooner rather than later.

But YAY for extra reading time!!!

[redqueenofevil.livejournal.com]

Oh no. This type of voting scares me. Especially since I only know a few people in idol. My entry was really personal this time too.

This will be me in the corner worrying.

[kathrynrose.livejournal.com]

Hopefully with the extended time, people will be able to actually read everyone. :)

A gift

Re: A gift

[kajel.livejournal.com]

lol, thanks Kate.

[anyonesghost.livejournal.com]

No, my beloved peasant village!

[jem0000000.livejournal.com]

Peasant village?

[kandigurl.livejournal.com]

Current contestants...so that means those of us who've been voted off can't vote?

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

That's correct. Only the 50 of us still in the running can vote, but you can still read and comment! :)

[jem0000000.livejournal.com]

Yay for extra time!

...Hey, if enough of us finish reading early, can we have the topics before the poll closes?

[jem0000000.livejournal.com]

If anyone is using OpenOffice.org's Calc, the function COUNTIF(range; "Yes") will tell you the number of Yes (note capitalization is important) votes within a range of cells, and the function COUNTBLANK(range) will tell you how many empty (un-voted) cells you have left in the range. I believe the two functions work identically in Excel, but I don't have Microsoft Office to test them with.

[kf4vkp.livejournal.com]

I'm truly scared for this vote. It'll be my first ever contestant only vote done like this.

And I've been low in the polls most weeks. Though, I haven't asked any friends outside of idol to vote for me, maybe that means I'm not doomed.

good luck everyone!

[jem0000000.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

Thanks, you too!

[jem0000000.livejournal.com]

Gary, do you want these alphabetized or by rank?

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Alphabetized would be awesome.

[bookishgeek.livejournal.com]

I am horrified by this concept because I went a little risky this week and am worried it's gonna bite me in the butt. :(

[ashgaelsonaria.livejournal.com]

Well in this case people (non contestants) should have no problem reading home game entries like this one
http://ashgaelsonaria.livejournal.com/269802.html
its not like we have to hurry threw the entries to get out votes in on time.
This is also quite possibly a good place to add links.

[kf4vkp.livejournal.com]

Anyone feel like sharing an up to date spreadsheet? I had one made at the beginning but never updated it week to week...Just voted as I read.

If not, that's cool, I'll make a new one, but thought I would ask!

[kathrynrose.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure how you like it set up, but here's the info you can copy/paste for your A column. That's the hardest part. :)
