Has it been since September, really? With the way this season has been going, I think you might have to start "executive ordering" people out if we hope to end any time before a calendar year has passed. Although, I wouldn't really say no to endless rounds of tiebreakers with this group. Maybe a spin-off where we all just write forever and it's not even a competition anymore but a sort of Justice League of writers, existing as protectors of the LJ world

Wow about your coworker. I’m in the opposite scenario, I’ve been at home since March and finally went back to work Monday. And no one knows how to act around each other. Like someone needed to use my computer but didn’t know if they should touch my keyboard. I didn’t know either so I typed everything for them.
I agree on the low commenting, perhaps because non current contestants can’t vote, many aren’t reading as well.
And I love the idea of a LJ justice league, I want in on that!
and the one lady that works in my building that stood less than three feet away from me without a mask and told me she had tested positive for COVID.
OMG! F*** that lady!
That's a terrible combination, having an office that refused to close and coworkers who refuse to even be considerate about not infecting others. What if you had risk factors (which could include just being diabetic, or having asthma)? What if you had an elderly relative or infant living with you, or your husband was immunosuppressed?
Why must people be so "Me, me, me!" all the time? :( :(
You know, if apologies are actually in order, maybe it wouldn't hurt to drop an email? Unless you think that might just re-open the wound for him...
Oof - dropping an e-mail? What a terrifying thought.
I'm actually friends with him on Instagram, and I spent a good chunk of time yesterday with a message open to him, staring at the blinking cursor and not knowing where to start.
I always wonder if the people that used to be in my life still ever think of me the way I seem to constantly think about them. So then I feel like, should I message them, or is that me being self-indulgent again? I mean, it was 14 years ago. Does he even really care?
But then, I don't know. Maybe he would appreciate it. Maybe it would make me feel better. Maybe it wouldn't. At some point I might be brave.
So question. In the voting thread you wrote: 1 of you is going to be saved by the Jury. 3 of you are going to saved by Contestant Only voting. 5 of you are going to be saved by THE GATEKEEPERS.
While I'm typing this, my son is participating in an online class on Varsity Tutors called "Chemistry: Fireworks, Forensics and Fun." The instructor just demonstrated Luminol, which made KFP jump up from his chair in excitement. Watching him, I've realized that if I watched videos like he does -- with his whole body -- I wouldn't need to work out.

It's entirely up to you.
I'd prefer you send your votes in alphabetical order. That helps me out. :)

1 of you is going to be saved by the Jury.
3 of you are going to saved by Contestant Only voting.
5 of you are going to be saved by THE GATEKEEPERS.
Is that the order in which the saves happen?

Maybe literally. Or at least literarily.
