Green Room - Week 26 - Day 5

"Hey Gary, when is the deadline for the main competition *and* Last Chance Idol?"

That's tonight at 8pm EDT!

http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/797204.html and http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/797508.html

So if you haven't gotten yours in yet, get to it!

On the other hand, if you have, are are just sitting around waiting for something to happen... we haven't done this in a little bit (I honestly can't recall if we did it this season. Maybe really early on...)

Let's make today an AMA (Ask Me Anything).

There are things that I *can't* tell you, for the purposes of the game, but if I can answer, I will! :)

So, what do you want to know?

Gary, I have something to ask my fellow Idolers, if that's okay... (If it's not please feel free to reply to this telling people to disregard it...).

Anyhoo, this week has gone to shit. And by shit I mean, drug-fucked d-bag running a red light and wiping a pretty freaking awesome dude off the face of Earth kind of shit...

As I have no byes left, I'm putting out my hat and enquiring about a gift. If I don't get one then, hey, it's been a ride, you know? If I do... well, I'm thinking it'll all be roses from here on in 'cause I feel like I'd have got my fair share of Life Crap out of the way. That's how it works, right? There's a quota, and once you've reached it, it's all sunshine and unicorns for the rest of the year, right?

I'm pretty sure the gift byes are no longer in play. =/ Byes themselves are good 'til the top 50, but I think we could only give them out up to the Top 100? I might be wrong.

And I hear you on the Life Crap thing. It was around this time last year that the Life Crap stopped piling more and more crap on me.

Oh, okay. Thanks for that info. I should really have re-read the rules before asking. At least that makes it official, I guess?

And it's good to know that the piling up does, indeed, stop. So thanks heaps for that info as well :)

Which makes me sad if you end up going today thanks to Life Crap, because you are one of my favorites (and if I had byes to spare and could give one, I would). >(

You're welcome. :) Hopefully it'll stop for you, soon!

Yeah, it's definitely not going to happen. It's nearing in on ticking over to Wednesday here and I am DONE for. There will be no entry from me this week :(

Thank you so much for the kind words though. Much appreciated ♥

I don't know about stopping, but mine is kind of snowballing at the moment :eeeek:

Sorry about the life crap, but here is a sunshiny unicorn - it's the least I can do to help brighten your day!

Sunshiny unicorn!! Thank you :)

You are DEFINITELY turning into a soft touch in your old age.

I, too, would pay dearly for a gift bye if I could get my paws on one at this point.

You know what would be interesting, though? If another contestant could be your Champion for the week - and write a second entry that would earn (or not earn) votes on your behalf.

I'm really sorry for what's happened to you. If I had a bye, I'd offer it to you.

Thank you for the sentiment, sorry it's taken me so long to reply.

*hugs* I wish I had a/two bye/s instead..:/
