TC, you forgot to pick which team you want to come in first in the Amazing Race game.

Tx, lexie, I fixed it!

Beachcomber, don't feel too bad about taking a risk, you are the leader in the Cowellimination Royalty Run, so stretch them pretty yams of yours on the nice comfy couch and I'll pass you my TVCH size tub o' popcorn! We're in for a looong ride

Has anyone heard from Escapee? If I can't get
ahold of Escapee by this week and get some trivia answers, I can only assume that she no longer wants to play?

Here's the chart:



I will give the point totals in the next post.

Well, now it's a footrace... aaaaand Jimmer and Stray_cat are down the stretch! so at this stage, I am going to give you the choices left for your pick:



Trivia will be following shortly

TRIVIA:

Q1) Will Crystal's 'big surprise' for next week be singing with an instrument? [even if she just uses a harp or a kazoo, a tambourine or anything, even a pair of spoons, it counts as an instrument] Will she use an instrument? yes/no (10pts)

Q2) Will any of the judges profess their 'love' for Michael (17yr old mentors don't count!)? [they just have to say the word 'love' in regards to him or his performance] yes/no (15pts)

Q3) During the mandatory 'Ford Car Jingle of the Week', who will my dearest Siobhan get in the car with during the first pick up? [multiple answers may be right!](20pts)

A) Aaron
B) Andrew
C) Casey
D) Crystal
E) Didi
F) Katie
G) Lee
H) Michael
I) Tim

BQ4) So I've been thinking... I am going to introduce a new weekly feature to Trivia, another segment to this omnibus, if you will, now that things are getting tougher, it is harder to tell who is going home, so, this will basically be your guess as to who is going home this week.

The tricky part of this is you can only use a contestant once, and you can only pick from the contestants still alive. It'll kinda be like the cowellimination segment, but you can't get eliminated UNTIL you run out of picks!

The one (or ones) who survive until the end, and/or has the most bullseyes (correctly picking the contestant who ends up leaving that week) for the season becomes the winner of this new segment, which I will name after the feisty host of the show, that venerable chieftan of mounting anticipation, cliffhanging and results show contestant terror... the virtual ying to Cowellimination's yang, the foil who doesn't spoil... this segment of the game will be called:

The Seacrest All-Star Shattering of Dreams Competition!!! (or The SASS'D Comp. for short). Be here to revel in the strife and schadenfreude as you pick and choose for your enjoyment the downfall of many a young singer's chance at stardom! Much like Ryan toys around with the fates of these lost souls like so much ball of yarn to a kitty cat, whilst using commercial brake trickery and pregnant pauses.... you, too.... can wield fortune from the unfortunate by fortelling who will fall from America's singing grace!

So the more correct choices you make as to who will achieve their bitter end, the better and better chance you will get to win this segment! yay!

You can only start to play this segment when you are cowelliminated, so those still playing that part have to wait until they transition to Trivia to play! [gives 'em an incentive]

Of course, you will have to make your choices BEFORE the show starts, so you don't get to hear them sing. I will visually represent your pick in the slot once used for the cowellimination segment pick, but your pick will have that neat ghostbuster's circle and slash on it, as seen here, barely, its a small emoticon: (5pts)

A) Aaron
B) Andrew
C) Casey
D) Crystal
E) Didi
F) Katie
G) Lee
H) Michael
I) Siobhan
J) Tim

Congrats Stray and Jimmer!!

Party on couchers! Can we get those big Coke cups filled with the libation that Simon is guzzling during the shows? He must hit the powder room during every commercial break as much as he drinks!

Srry, Beachcomber, we at TVCH have an exclusive contract with Pepsi, so no big Coke cups here, but we got endless fountains of Pepsi containers bigger than my head!

TC, that is perfect since I prefer Pepsi over Coke, Now don't anyone get in TC's way when the commercial break comes because that is one big huffing cup of Pepsi he just drank!

Maybe we can have a belching alphabet contest when things get a little boring

I did let my beagle answer this time. I took a video of her doing the first question. The 3rd and 4th were harder to do because I had to set up 9 and 10 kibbles and explain what name each kibble represented...LOL And then I had run to her so she didn't gobble them all up after she picked the first one. (BTW, I don't agree with two of her answers, but I decided to let them stand)



Q1) Yes
Q2) Yes
Q3) D) Crystal
BQ4) Katie

That's hilarious. If Birdie's predictions don't work out, maybe you could try it with your DH next week?

Since Siobhan didn't get into a car with anyone, then I think everyone should get points on that, since I failed to put 'no one' as an answer.

Congrats, Naja, you have a

Green Light Special!


----------------



Also congrats to Beachcomber for the slim lead as well.

Since everyone but taysmomcj and me did the BQ4, I will let everyone including those still in cowellimination to play, and I don't know if taysmomcj knows about the new SASS'd game, so I will just have her potentially start with just 2 down.

But since I knew of the competition, I will be down the bottom 3. If in the future, someone doesn't submit a name, they will automatically have the bottom 3 taken away from their selections. I will post the picks left for both tracts in the next post.

Ty Beachcomber! you're like an angel with your sweet words of support! . I hope it is a calm week, too. Need to catch up on my zzz's, lol!


Please remember that everyone who does trivia also gets to pick for the sass'd competition, so please choose who you think will go home this week.

TRIVIA:

Q1) For the 3rd straight week, I will ask if Crystal will sing with an instrument? After this week... I give up all hope. Her and Casey can start up dueling banjos until finale week for all I care!(yes/no) 10pts

Q2) Will Simon raise his hand to Ryan during the singing show? It can be him stopping him from interrupting or dismissing something he said or telling him to stay away from his personal space, etc. If the hand goes up, and they are talking to each other, then it is a yes. He does it quite often, but there is no telling with these 2. yes/no (15pts)

Q3) Will Siobhan in fact ditch her signature high scream at the end of her song thingy? It must be confirmed by any of the judges comments whether she did or not. If they are ambivalent, then that counts as no. yes/no (20pts)


Here's my answers, just in case I forget again!

Sass'd: Andrew

Q1) no
Q2) yes
Q3) yes
