OluwabuqqyYOLO:
I thought voting isn't important yet and only those who are dropped will need votes, right, Divepen1?
Yes.

Will the thread make Frontpage for the voting at the final stage? It would seem to be a popularity contest if the contestants campaign for votes.

No. It will only move there when the winnee has been announced.

I want to suggest it should be the contestant's post because its easier that way. Plus some people are complaining that they can't find my post. Then again, I've been offline for two days, if I didn't come online now I wouldn't have known about this, meaning my previous votes would have gone to naught and that is not cool
The thread will make it open to everyone reading it.
I said we are using the voice format. That thread is the stage of the competition.

It would be fair if votes from both threads are combinedly counted

It would come to think of it, then in the next round the mod will state precisely what post would be counted

Likes from both threads combined would be tantamount to inaccuracy (duplicate votes). That's because 1 person can like both threads and it would be counted as 2 votes instead of 1.

Divepen1:
Yes.

But will another day be chosen for the unselected contestants to solicit for votes? Isn't it like the person with the highest number of votes that was not selected will make it to the next round?

Yes.
Okay. I hope I don't need the votes.

A Glimpse At Us

The last guest paid her condolence and left. Max wiped his face and dumped himself unto the sofa. He nodded at his wife and she replied with the faintest smile. Their son's death brought more relief than pain.

Their kid was an 1mbecile, and I was the only one who knew of his beautiful paintings.

@divepen1 and audreytimms
I had to write the "1mbecile" like that.... Nairaland bot is censoring the word and changing it to something else.

Oh. I was thinking the final stage would be anonymous like the blind audition and readers alone would vote without interference from the contestants.

Well, that's why I told you the formats we would be following. The voice competition is such that the winner is chosen by vote also and they would be known. That's why you have to keep performing well to make them happy. More over, the judges would keep selecting one contestant each as the competition progresses.
The essence of this competition is not only to get winners, and good writers; it is aimed at encouraging marketing.

Larrysun, you surely wanted to go through a battle when you put me against Frankenstein. But I'm glad you did 'cos it really pushed my limits. And, yeah, keep getting those creeps. That rough diamond is coming for you, you well know. Thank you for the review.

Dear mum,

“This is the girl I have chosen to spend my life with. She will make you a grandma one day. What do you think, mum? She’s smart, beautiful and is an amazing woman, just like you.”

These are words I will never tell my mother. And the reason is because she died yesterday.

This os straight to the heart. Well done.
