LJ Idol 2 - Top Four Voting
It's been an...intense week of LJ Idol 2. For perhaps the first time, the contestants have realized that their spots in the competition are no longer guaranteed, and that lots of work is necessary to remain safe. We stand right now with four finalists, and two of them will be up for elimination tonight. But which two? This week, the remaining competitors had to undergo two challenges: First, they had to try to get their name written on the board of Mr. Alexander's classroom by 8:15, and they also had to go through their normal school day wearing socks on their hands. Let's see how they did and find out who is safe and who...isn't.
Dominick Ciruzzi - Dominick, you were an interesting case this week. Initially, you seemed to be flailing, especially with the board challenge. For the first three days, you came in, wrote your name on the board, and then you were defeated and scurried out of the room in a whining fervor. Finally, on the last day of competition you were able to succeed, and I commend you for this, as you were one of only two finalists who managed to complete the board challenge successfully. As for the sock challenge, it is true that you wore your socks more than some of the other competitors. However, you were caught without socks at one point, and more often than not, your socks were on your hands inside the pockets of your coat, which essentially defeated the purpose of the challenge. If I had wanted you to hide the challenge from your classmates, I would have had you wear a bra. Picking the Bottom Two was very difficult this week. Although you did decently in both challenges, unfortunately, your lack of the nothing-can-embarrass-me attitude that is desired in a LiveJournal Idol has landed you in this week's Bottom Two. I wish you the best of luck.
Mary Hanrahan - Mary, as the audience may know, you were sick for the first half of this challenge period, which understandably set you back a bit. However, I was disappointed to find that on the days that you were in school, you uncharacteristically put strikingly little effort into the challenges this week. Although you did put a valiant effort into getting your name on the board, when push came to shove, your name was not the one that was there at 8:15. Also, while you wore socks in the morning, you failed to keep them on your hands for the rest of the day. However, despite your shortcomings this week, you have done an excellent job up until now.
Rebecca Levin - Rebecca, coming into this week, many people considered you the obvious choice to be eliminated, and some even wrote you off. Although you failed to achieve much with the board challenge, you by far dominated the sock challenge, showing all of the characteristics that a LiveJournal Idol should posess. Not only did you wear your socks with pride and fashionable flair, but you were able to keep them on during seemingly difficult tasks, such as taking notes for Physics and even playing picclaball! Also, teachers and staff made comments about your socks, but you gave excellent retorts with a delightful sense of humor. You have done well this week, and proven the naysayers wrong.
Kristina Ronald - Kristina, you did a great job with the board challenge this week, winning the challenge three out of the four days. This is certainly good, as I know you were late to class on at least one instance because you wanted to ensure success. Congratulations. However, your participation in the sock challenge left something to be desired, as you basically never wore your socks at all. Nevertheless, you did enough to save yourself this week, and so did Rebecca. You are both safe and will compete this coming week for a spot in the finale.
Which means Mary will join Dominick in the Bottom Two this week.
Shocked? At one point, some viewers picked Dominick and Mary as the likely Final Two, but now this cannot be. One of these contestants will be eliminated tomorrow at midnight, and the other will go on to compete for a spot in the finale. It's in your hands now.

Pick the contestant that you feel most deserves a spot in the Final Three. Whoever gets the most votes will compete against Rebecca and Kristina in not one, not two, but THREE challenges over the next week. Who deserves this chance? Results tomorrow at midnight as well as the announcement of the next three challenges. This is the most important vote so far.
