I know most of you have the rules memorized...but humor me & read 'em anyway.
:
  • Votes must be in
    bold
    . If you do not bold your vote, it will not be counted.
  • Please be attentive and
    unvote
    , if necessary, before casting a new vote. This is not
    required
    , but I’d appreciate it.
  • Executions will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, his pleas are useless and any attempts to unvote will be unheeded. You may
    vote: no lynch
    – majority votes of this kind are necessary to end the day without a death.
  • The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so.
  • Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. Stop typing.
  • Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts
  • Don’t quote any PMs from me.
  • If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. I will not wait for you – if you do not submit a choice to me, tough! No choice will be made.
  • If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread.
    Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
  • Remember, it’s a game. It’s supposed to played. It’s supposed to be
    fun
    . Do your part.

Huh-huh-huh oo-whoa-oo-whoa-oo!


Good morning everybody and welcome to American Idol! I am your host, MeMe, and we have a great show lined up for you!

I know, I know, you were expecting to see
Ryan Seacrest
(also known to close friends as
bloojay
) in some fancy-boy shirt, weren't you? Sorry to disappoint...but Ryan's criminal past finally caught up to him. Seems he'd been scamming free sessions at the local "Mystic Tan" Salon by promising Wild Card slots to the girls working the counter...

Enough about him, though. As per usual, all mention of Ryan will be completely erased from the official website. He's dead to us. With eleven people still here, it will take six votes to smash someone's dreams.

Don't turn that channel because the
Game is On
.

Keeping it in flavor I think everyone should follow Mr_Gnome_It_All's example and sing a verse of a song, then at least we could lynch people day one on the basis of their song selection.

Where is the love,
where is the looooooove,
Where is the love.

Okay!

Don't cryyyyy
don't raise your eye
it's oonnnly Teeenage Waastelaand....

Sally, take my hand
and travel south crossland...
put out the fire,
and don't look past my shoulder.
The exodus is here,
the happy ones are near...
Let's get together,
before we get much older.....


unvote: mneme, by the way.

Hey, if we're going to judge people by song selection, I want to rechoose cuz I hate Ricky Martin.

I've been searching for you
I heard a cry within my soul
I've never had a yearning quite like this before
Know that you are walking right through my door

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll ever see you again
And if that day comes
I know we could win
I wonder if I'll ever see you again

*sigh*. What -is- it with my not getting "watch topic" messages? Or maybe I just missed a few posts...

Two threads, quotes and songs...can't we all just get along? (guess not...)

I agree with fletcher. It's rather silly to only vote for someone who hasn't been voted.
unvote: Phoebus
vote: fletcher
('cause I have to vote for -someone, and because you voted without unvoting)

Now, for songs...I can't stand pop songs, and most songs I know most people don't know. So I'll just hand you some lyrics that most people probably don't know (at least, unless you're into filk or remember a certain fantasy YA series...)

Iron for the birthday, bronze carried long
Wood from the burning, stone out of song.
Fire from the candle-ring, water from the thaw.
These six signs the circle of the last sign seeker's call.
Fire on the mountaintop shall find the harp of gold.
Played to wake the sleepers, the oldest of the old.
Power from the Greenwitch, that was lost beneath the sea.
All these things shall find the light. The silver on the tree.

When the Dark comes rising, six shall turn it back.
Three from the circle, three from the track.
Wood, bronze, iron, water, fire, stone.
Fire shall return, and one go alone.


(re my sig...it's my sig...)
