Aw, it is sad that you feel like you have to leave :(.

As for the polls, personally, I make a point not to look at where I (or most of people) stand in them when I vote, for that very reason: to avoid getting nervous or upset over standings.

And yes, Idol does unexpected things to those who participate in it.

But maybe - see you when Second Chance Idol comes around?

Probably the smarter decision would have been to just vote in the polls, not look at see where I was standing. As it happened, I was in the bottom few over the past month or so and was so sure I was going last week that it became quite difficult to pump myself up for another week.

I'm not sure about Second Chance Idol (not sure what that even means tbh) but I think this will help me participate more in the actual community and reading and commenting without stress!

:D

Sorry to see you go, but I'm glad you at least got out of it what you wanted to!

Second Chance Idol is for those folks who either missed signing up at the start of the season, or who got voted out or dropped, and want a chance to get back in. I think they get their own topics, different from the main topic, and their own poll.

If memory serves, the top few get back in to the main competition each week, the bottom one or two get eliminated, and the rest compete the following week with a new topic, like the main poll does.

It's good that you're proud of yourself, I think it takes a lot of courage to be a part of this (I know it has for me too). Don't give up entirely on writing though! Not everyone is a creative writing genius overnight just because they want to be!

Hey, you should be hella proud for getting this far. 14 weeks of this is a whole mess of work and you put out some really good pieces along the way.

I hope fervently that your next adventure brings you some excellent times´and that you'll pop into the Green Room to tell us about them.
