Week 1 - Gold Star

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Yep, it's that time again. Time to hand out the Gold Stars for the week.

I thought last week was hard. I had no idea. I started out with the list of some of the folk that I thought I had shorted last week by not putting on the list, and then I added as the week continued - moved people around - and ended up with a list that has me going "man, I wish I could give them to more people a week!" But I put a rule in place for myself, and so, here we are. Those I bumped are on the list for next week, right now. What will happen then? Who knows. Maybe more people will show up to impress me and I will be staring at the list once again going "man, I should have. . .".

Anyway, the Gold Star Winners for Week 1 of the competition are:


1. emaline412
2. mme_furiosa
3. a_singularity
4. djner
5. rm
6. kittenboo
7. mezzominty
8. belenen
9. monkeysugarmama
10. anchasta
11. tulip_in_yellow
12. rosepurr
13. sideshowbennie
14. superhappytime
15. kelly0182

Thank you so much all of you for your dedication, hard work and just plain in general keeping this thing fun!

Congrats guys and girls! *passes around cookies*

[adpaz.livejournal.com]

Congrats to everyone! It's so great to see everyone getting the recognition they deserve.

[mme-furiosa.livejournal.com]

Awww, thanks! Weird to get a star for having a great time and meeting interesting people. Dang, I could get used to this.

[lacombe.livejournal.com]

emaline412! See? You deserve it too! Awesome, chica!

anchasta, djner and rosepurr too! What awesome LJ friends the three of you have been! I'm so happy for you guys!

[lilerthkwake.livejournal.com]

Special congrats to belenen. I know from personal experience that she's an awesome encourager, and I'd expect no less than Permanent Gold Star Status for her in this competition!

[belenen.livejournal.com]

awwwww! *beams* thank you so much! *many hugs* :D

seriously, your comment just made me at least three times as happy ♥

[lilerthkwake.livejournal.com]

It's true.

Congratulations!

[ewok-626.livejournal.com]

Aww, good job everyone! *applauds*

[emaline412.livejournal.com]

Now I'm blushing!
I'm very flattered to have earned that star ;) I'm enjoying y'all much more than I ever imagined I would a bunch of "random strangers"!

[djner.livejournal.com]

I'm not a blushing person, and I came close to the dangerousredzone threshhold. Thanks guys.

[kittenboo.livejournal.com]

aaaah my evil plan is working already... mwahaha



*sidenote, thank you, i was suprised but excited to see my name up there*

[lordrexfear.livejournal.com]

Kick ass everyone! I know a few of you and have been entertained and appreciating your presence so far. Don't let me down!

I'm going to nominate myself for next week. I'll even burn my face really really badly while making potatoes, that'll prove I'm working hard!

Potatoes

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Want to help me with *my* potatoes?

Re: Potatoes

[lordrexfear.livejournal.com]

Why is my mind going so dirty with that statement? ;)

Re: Potatoes

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

*peers intently into your eyes*

I don't know.

Why?

*prepares to toss you a really hot one*

Re: Potatoes

[lordrexfear.livejournal.com]

Man, it's a good thing I was wearing a potholder...

So, what are we doing? Fries? Mashed? Croquetes? Or shall we forget the potatoes all together?

Re: Potatoes

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Oh..."Let's do the Mash"

(even if Halloween has past)

[rm.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! Normally I'm the bad attitude bear. Awesome!

[twystedpixie.livejournal.com]

Fantastic choices. I've gotten to know a few of them in this first week already. They deserve recognition! :)

[mezzominty.livejournal.com]

Huzzah!

[tulip-in-yellow.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! I'm not sure what I did to deserve it, but thanks oodles :)

Voting hasn't even happened for round 1 and already I've met fascinating people and made new friends. I'm so glad that I signed on for this crazy ride!

[suesniffsglue.livejournal.com]

Some of the people on this list are definitely some favorites of mine! Congrats =0)

[tralfamadore.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, this really made my day. It's so easy to feel lost and passed by in the immense amount of people competing and watching this season, and this just makes me feel so appreciated and noticed. It really means a lot to me. Thank you.

[fidget]

Can I take the gold star I've had on my shirt since last week and hand it to mme_furiosa? Please? Because she's one of my favourite LJ people.

Not that everybody else on the list isn't awesome, but I only have one gold star. Those things are small. I think it would kind of defeat the coolness factor to cut it up into fifteen little pieces.

[kindapoetry.livejournal.com]

Gold sparkles for all! lol!

[fidget]

I suppose that works, too. But then wouldn't we have to put on the strobe lights and call it a rave -- in which case, what about the poor epileptics?

[kindapoetry.livejournal.com]

Could put them in a jar and call it glitter, no?

[fidget]

It's not as fun if it's in a jar! You can't wear a jar!

...Well, I guess you could, if copious amounts of duct tape were involved.

[twystedpixie.livejournal.com]

Even more fun, I say.

Then again, this is also why I'm going to Hell, but...I figure all my friends will be there, anyway.

[rosepurr.livejournal.com]

Wow!! I got a gold star!! YAY! Thank you.

[superhappytime.livejournal.com]

I missed this post earlier for some reason...now I feel happy...it's the total opposite of elementary school when nobody ever picked me to be on their team.

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Congratulations!!

(Let me know if you would like one of the "gold star" icons.)

[sideshowbennie.livejournal.com]

I have been on the road entertaining the masses all weekend and have just now had a chance to catch up on my LJ. I was surprised to see my name listed as a Gold Star Winner. Thanks so much. I am happy that everyone has enjoyed my entry and thanks to everyone who commented for all the positive feedback...
