clauderainsrmGood morning from the bus!
How is your week going so far? The Governor gave us off from Monday until Christmas next week. Which some people are seeing as generous and others are wondering just what anyone is going to get accomplished on Thursday and Friday. :D

To answer some questions/comments from the last Green Room:
- Yes. It’s true that there was a mini season where there were two winners. If you recall though the THEME of that mini season centered around “intersections” where people would partner up. So that result got the theme AND they went quite a few rounds of tie breakers that went nowhere. In other words, very specific situation that, to me, does not fit into this mini season theme or foreseen circumstances. I mean never say never. But it’s not something I’d count on either as we approach the finale.
- There’s a theme to this mini season? Yes. I never said it outloud but it’s “back to basics”/old school. The few twists there have been are all things that appeared in the first 3 seasons. (Or are slight variations on them )
- Woukd I move the competition to Facebook? I allowed writers to compete FROM their Facebook before. Back when “Notes” was a thing. LJ allowed people to vote FROM their Facebook and other social media which boosted our visibility and IMO was a very good thing to get that exposure. But as others have stated, FB doesn’t have the basic capacity to function the way Idol would need it to function. Groups have polls, but as someone who runs other groups on FB, they don’t allow for links in the poll which is very important. So - would I consider FB as an alternative’s answer is “Yes” IF it was something completely different than it actually is. 😝. (In other words, no. It’s not viable even before you get to the privacy issues.)
