I fully intended to vote for myself

I really did, shameless or not.

But then the next hpbnfdm_lives came up, and I saw who I was matched with...

... and I just laughed. I've sent her reams of reviews, essays. I've fanfic'd her fanfics.

I'm still laughing.

I followed your link over to vote for you and Rene and after three tries I still didn't have her username right. *loathes*

It's fic_i_rene? Right? Something like that?

It seems like in every round there are two writers that I know and like--and they're invariably pitted against each other. Which is why I'm not voting at all.

I can't wait to see how they handle the ties, though.

They're probably just going to discount the ties. I've been trying to figure out how the game works, is this it? Do we just keep randomly matching people up, or are there points? Is this like Survivor, where you have different elimination rounds? Of course, in Survivor the only good one was the first -- that was a fascinating sociological experiment.

I figured it would be a tournament, where the winners keep getting pitted against each other until there's only one, um, survivor. But if that's the case, the management is going to regret having only 15 rounds in this first group. (I'm a math major. I know these things.)

Of course, I could be totally wrong.

My husband is addicted to Survivor, which frightens me to no end. He says one of the things that makes it interesting is that they change the rules every time. But, yeah, that first one really was fascinating, since no one knew what strategies would work.
