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

When you start with devastation like announcing that

[livejournal.com profile] bookishgeek
[livejournal.com profile] fourzoas

missed the deadline and were officially eliminated, there really isn’t anywhere to go but “up”. Because that’s horrible news, plain and simple. I like and admire all of them. Heck, at least one of them is on my mental “If I had an All Stars season, who would I recruit?” Two, of them on a good day - with the third coming in on the short list of people who have impressed me, but I want to see more from. Which, hopefully I will in the form of Home Game entries. Right?

As for the rest of you, there is no rest for the wicked, which is why you are all in constant motion!

Everyone is back in one poll, so it’s a straight-forward, the bottom three will be eliminated scenario.

Which means that it’s time to get the word out - spread the word about Idol. Let people know where they need to come to read some great entries, and some stimulating conversation. Yes, I’m advocating that you lie to them about the conversation! Then again, this is Livejournal - so by those standards, Idol conversation is a MENSA meeting!

The poll closes at Friday, July 26th at 11am EDT Keep in mind, there is still one immunity out there, left to give to someone else by the Top 25. Which is getting awfully close...

Good luck to everyone!

Oh god but which one am I? D:

I'm sorry, everyone. :( I wanted to keep going, but work has just been too hectic lately - my office moved today and I was half-asleep on the sofa at 8:50 when I realized what I'd missed. I hope to be back for Season 9!

I am!! Is there still a shot at home gamers getting back into the main poll, or was that shot out in the beginning?

Wow, three names I certainly never expected...



Is it me or is the poll awfully small suddenly?

From: [identity profile] roina-arwen.livejournal.com
It looked bigger last week because we each had two entries! But we're down to 31 folks, so yeah - it's a lot smaller. :)

Yeah I did calculate that in but it still seemed less than I thought it would be!

Holy grap, ladies!

I am very upset about this.

We've embarked on a mad dash to get our house sorted and organized before school begins in August--we've still got boxes to unpack from our move 4 years ago!

This is why I missed the deadline...feels kinda lame...

Best to all who remain!

This makes me sad! Your row on my spreadsheet is a solid row of Y's. That's really rare, especially when we don't actually know each other.

I will miss your words. Home Game - a lot!

I was unpacking boxes, too - my office at work moved for the first time in 20-something years and there was just no time. I was working late, on a mini-vacation this weekend, and too tired to do much when I got home.

Unpacking boxes was our downfall. :( Who knew?

Appropriate icon is appropriate (as usual).

*Hugs* and *pouts* for missing the deadline!

I'll miss your entries, but it's good to know everything's ok.

Bad boxes, no cookie! Sorry to see you miss the deadline, I've really enjoyed reading your entries this season! *Hugs*

Crappy weekend on top of working all day today plus not coming home until maybe an hour or so ago...yeah, I knew somewhere down the line I'd probably have to drop because of work, but I didn't intend for it to be this soon :/

But hey, I'm not going anywhere ;)

We are not pleased by this turn of events.
Except for the part where you're not going anywhere.
And the opportunity for us to speak in the Royal We, which came at too high a cost.

I'm falling in love with your icon. May Royal We gank it?

We may. We can't remember if it was attributed in our profile or not, so we will send we a message shortly.

You already know how I feel about this.

Damn work for getting in the middle of LJ Idol time! How rude! Glad everything else is okay. *Hugs*

Some stories too close to home

Wow, some of the stories this week have reminded me of my younger days. And not all of them in a good way. But really good reading nonetheless.

So dismayed to lose all three writers to RL overload, but it's understandable. I just thought that if anything would have forced dropouts, it would have been the two-entry week!

Glad all three of you are doing well, even though things have been hectic.
