Spirit of LJ IDOL

[clauderainsrm]

What do tru2myart, spydielives, tulip_in_yellow, boxsofrain, beautyofgrey and joeymichaels have in common?

Three have won the game. Three have not.
Five women. One man.

So, those aren’t it.

The answer is, of course, that each of these fine people have been selected as the representative of their respective Seasons - they are the Spirit of LJ IDOLEvery year, since Season 2, we have gotten

So are members of the Jury eligible to be selected, or just to vote?

[clauderainsrm]

Just to vote.

I apologize, in advance, to (name redacted) because no one that I ever think is going to be selected, ever is - so my unconscious mental "I think (name redacted) might win Spirit", has just doomed you.

Sorry about that!

Oh this is fun! I love voting for this. I think it's a nice touch to LJ Idol. I already have a good mental list of deserving peeps, so many people have made this season amazing and the best one I've yet to experience. Season 8 totally rocks because of everyone, including people no longer eligible to win it because of being eliminated.

I hope everyone who's contributed to Idol this season knows how awesome they've made it so far, winner of Spirit or not.

what about people who give a crap and hang out in the green room every day even though they were eliminated months ago? Where is our representation?

WE ARE THE 99%!!!!!

I opened the voting up to Jury last season, and that seemed to add an interesting dynamic to it.

No plans on making it a public vote though. You already get those during most weeks.

I DID just think of a way for you to be involved and impact things… make your own chart of where YOU would rank them and why. Post it as a comment. Get people talking about what it means to be Spirit and their personal criteria…

Not in a negative way... but in a way that encourages people to make the case for themselves and other people...

Shame Myrna went out immediately before the nominations came out. I believe she would have been an excellent Spirit of Idol candidate...there are still some excellent choices though.

I would second that. I have a thought, and a second thought, and a third about who it will most likely end up being. But, I have a vote for who I feel it SHOULD be, and I'm very happy this person is still around so I can vote my heart on this concept, though, I even have a second choice, too, so, I'll throw them both into the ring... maybe even a third. (And, apparently, everyone else, too, just, in a different order... I missed the way it works upon first read!)

Myrna really would have made a good candidate. She's brought a lot to this season in the way of her sweet, sweet personality and happy attitude.

Bye Bye from the Birdie!

Speaking of me, I left a short post regarding my departure from the competition.
