How do you want Exhibit B to be remembered?

That is the power that is in your hands, right now.

It’s the power that has been in your hands the entire time. But not everyone stops to think about that on a regular basis.

Will it be looked on as welcoming? As divisive? Will the positivity win out or the negativity?

You are the best, and the worst ambassadors LJ Idol has. You go out into the world and either make it look good, or look bad by what you do and what you say.

In the end, more people should be walking away with that feeling you get when you have just walked off a rollercoaster and are just so overwhelmed with emotions… hopefully more people feel the rush of “I want to do that again!!” than are vomiting into the bushes.

One comforting thing is that, regardless of the atmosphere at the end, that I don’t have to worry about who is going to win. I’ve fortunate that the writers have all been of such quality that I knew that no one mattered who ended up in the winner’s circle, that it was going to be someone extremely talented.

As if the new topic: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/696365.html

My hope is that Exhibit B will finish out with the same sort of energy that Exhibit A did… with a rush of “I can’t wait until we can do that again!”

I'm honestly surprised that there haven't been more explosions in the kitchen considering how close to dinner time it's getting and how long this stew has been churning away.

It's because we (as a group) have either 1) kept it in check, or 2) taken it offline, TBH.

However, the season is not yet over...

Well damn, apparently I missed some shit somewhere! This season has seemed mild as hell in the drama llama department.

Hmmm... Inquiring minds.

Seriously, same here! I don't feel like any of the drama this go around has been any worse than the stuff we saw during S8.

Ditto! Season 8 had, what, three major blowouts and some smaller scuffles here and there? Exhibit B has barely even had any scuffles, at least from what I can see. Maybe a few instances of minor horn-locking and some passionate discussions, and the requisite one or two people being Very Mad At Idol because we all suck or whatnot, but that's pretty much it.

Three major blowouts from what I'm aware of, and definitely smaller scuffles in S8, definitely. But Exhibit B? I know I had to resist starting small scuffles this go around, but I'm good at keeping myself in check (most of the time). The worst I saw was people flipping out over the non-intersections. And that was really it.

I guess there was more of it behind the scenes than I'm aware of? I dunno.

I wouldn't even count a predictable freak-out over a major twist as a scuffle! That's just part of the game itself.

Exactly! I guess they were all behind the scenes -- that or I've missed some more hopping GRs.

(ETA: unless one of the skulls you wanna crack is mine. In which case, good luck, because it's a very thick skull!)

Seriously. Am I not on the right newsletters?

Maybe we need to make one. It can be the LJI Drama Dispatch, the straight-to-your-inbox Chronic Crisis Chronicle, delivering news of ongoing snits, behind the scenes wank fests, and other points of incendiary interest.

What am I missing here?!?

Though with a lot of drama, unless it's really obvious I usually have this same question. Is it that I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, especially in solely written communication? Or is it that I dislike contention and am unconsiously blocking it out? "La-la-la-la-la-la..."
