When will it officially start?

That was my main concern, and why I'm bowing out...I don't really have the time nor the ability to concentrate that it would take for essay type entries...Sincerely...The baby is extremely distracting, always needs attention, and I'm not ever able to be here as often as I used to be.

Thank you, stubbs! I knew you loved me - but you're hardly around anymore!! Are you still in NZ, or have you gone back to Egypt yet? How's the man's father doing?

what if your in a whole different time zone and you dont get to read competition rules n stuff till its almost over ??

any special priveliges there ??
like...


CONGRATS STUBBS..
ALTHOUGH U NEVER ENTERED..U WIN !!!!!!!!!!!! :o

I'm definitely in.


But I second Pap's question of when it officially begins.

Don't you folks know anything about how Idol contests work? You drop out AFTER the contest starts- with as much drama and whining as possible! The judges weren't fair, you had a cold that day, your nerves got to you....

Can I just have an affair with a judge and get kicked out? Who are the judges? I need to start sending them PMs now.

Maybe there will be a press leak or two....

I'll be singing some Aretha Franklin
