Very cool:)

Oh crap.....here's another competition I'll lose :rolleyes:

Who said you were gonna play? ;)

[pinkfloyd45769]

Who said you were gonna play? ;)

Can you give anymore details other than the above?

[pinkfloyd45769]

BTW,i vote for Hammer;)

[_____V_____]

Can you give anymore details other than the above?

01) It will be in the format of Pop Idol, nee American Idol - minus the singing. Umm, there MIGHT be SOME involvement of songs but in a later stage.

02) There will be 4 judges, same as the show. Initial negotiations are on in that department.

03) Contestants shortlisted will get Invitations through PM, and they will be requested to reply back - in the affirmative, or negative - about their participation.

04) There will be qualifying and eliminating rounds, of course. Until we find our HDC Idol, who will have the privilege of holding the title - "HDC Idol Superstar 2008-09".

05) The rounds will be tests based on your skills, talents, intuition, knowledge and imagination - all pertaining to horror (movies, music, books etc.) on a whole. In simpler terms, if you are a pretty decent fan of horror movies (and are even a wee bit smart), you should have no problem advancing on. And yes, the later rounds get increasingly tougher.


Thats all for now. :)

[hammerfan]

Who said you were gonna play? ;)

[hammerfan]

BTW,i vote for Hammer;)

[ferretchucker]

I'll do it if I get a bit more information. If this is to do with the Radio, will we be required to actually be on said radio at a specific time. If so, that will pose a problem for me, (unfortuantely, one that wouldn't be able to be altered due to the amount of US posters).

[Papillon Noir]

I want to be an idol. :D

[novakru]

I want to be an idol. :D

I will just take the unconditional endless worship please:D

[pinkfloyd45769]

I will just take the unconditional endless worship please:D

You got it;)

btw,i got your text..i'll give ya a call:)

Nope. It doesnt have to do anything with radio, nor singing. (or songs, for the moment anyway)

And the first step has been completed. 40 randomly chosen contestants have been sent invitations, and confirmation will be accepted through PMs only.


Update - received 4 confirmed participations already!

[hacelikewhoa]

hey pinkfloyd I tried to reply to your pm but it said your box was full... I live in akron.

[Papillon Noir]

I will just take the unconditional endless worship please:D

Hey, that doesn't hurt either. :p

[_____V_____]

I will be back with another update soon.

Till then, I ll leave you all with a hint - it is going to be exciting, entertaining as hell, and a real test of your brains.

Jumping out of chairs yet? Check your PM boxes, and get in line. :cool:

[pinkfloyd45769]

hey pinkfloyd I tried to reply to your pm but it said your box was full... I live in akron.

Yea,i cleaned it out!!:)

[_____V_____]

Update - 7 confirmed participants now.

The show will be off to a glittering start once all invitations have been replied to.

[Freak]

hey pinkfloyd I tried to reply to your pm but it said your box was full... I live in akron.

There's alot of people from Ohio and Indiana as well as some other surrounding states on here.

[_____V_____]

btw, the deadline for all/most selected contestants to confirm their participation ends at Noon EST on Sunday.

If sufficient confirmations arent in yet, the deadline may be extended for a day or two, at the max.

[Roderick Usher]

My PM box is empited... I'm ready for a show!

[_____V_____]

UPDATE


17 confirmations right now.

4 declines.


btw, your 4 judges have been finalised, and they are raring to go. Once we have the final tally, I will unveil the names of the Judges. And, HDC Idol will begin.

[_____V_____]

A piece of advice -

I address all contestants who have confirmed their participation. Use the time between now and when HDC Idol actually starts, to brush up on some of your horror knowledge, ergo watch the movies, read some books, hear some chilling music etc.

It will come in handy.

[missmacabre]

Damn, are we going to be writing a lot of essays?

[stubbornforgey]

At least somebody here loves me! :D And I vote for pink!!

awwwwwwwww ..em gonna vote for Hammer too

[bloodrayne]

Damn, are we going to be writing a lot of essays?

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.

[hammerfan]

awwwwwwwww ..em gonna vote for Hammer too


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?

[stubbornforgey]

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

[Posher778]

Update - 7 confirmed participants now.

The show will be off to a glittering start once all invitations have been replied to.

I'm definitely in.


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

[neverending]

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....

[missmacabre]

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.

[neverending]

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

[Posher778]

I'll be singing some Aretha Franklin

my father in law is improving but is still in hospital...
he keeps getting re- admitted cos for some unknown reason
his temperature keeps getting dangerously high'

as for me..
em in NZ but will be heading back to egypt
soonish.

[newb]

me too........don't have the time to put into it right now. It wouldn't be fair to all involved.

If you give me his first name - first name only - I'll say some prayers for him. You must be missing your hubby like crazy!

[bloodrayne]

HAHAHA...I never watch that stuff, so I guess I'm doing it wrong :p

That does sound funny though...Oh the drama

[neverending]

me too........don't have the time to put into it right now. It wouldn't be fair to all involved.

C'mon now- you all know it's a much btter career move to bow out of Idol AFTER it starts!

And you're all acting like it's going to be another BR- and we've had very little info released so far. You're all making a lot of assumptions.

[stubbornforgey]

If you give me his first name - first name only - I'll say some prayers for him. You must be missing your hubby like crazy!


thanks for that..'hugs'
i just call him poppy...


and yes..i miss my baby so damn much..the only consolatation is
we are on the phone or online together every day/night

[_____V_____]

Damn, are we going to be writing a lot of essays?

Nope. But you have to use your brains, imagination, wit and knowledge - just like the iconic personalities who shaped horror as a genre and made it into what it is today.

You get to be Forrest Ackerman, Dario Argento, Bruce Campbell, Lon Chaney, Roger Corman, Jamie Lee Curtis, Boris Karloff, Goblin etc., without the fame.

Not getting it yet? Trust me, I ll be more clearer when it all begins.



When will it officially start?

Deadline for contestants is Sunday Noon, EST. So Sunday night.


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.

You should just wait till it began and then decide. Like NE said, it would have a lot of American Idol stuff, but talents which would require online flair. Read my reply to MissM above.

But, I wont force you. I am sure you can adjust it into your schedule.


me too........don't have the time to put into it right now. It wouldn't be fair to all involved.

Being online once every 2 days will be fine, in the beginning rounds. I am sure you could give this 30 minutes out of every 48 hours of your time.

Not forcing you, bud...but, think it over.



Update :- 22 confirmations so far. And 6 declines. One member has their PMs and Email disabled so I couldn't send her an Invite.

[GorePhobia]

I am all for this and it seems like it will be a blast. Good luck to everyone involved and I want to say job well done to V for possibly putting on something amazing again.

[bloodrayne]

Okay then...I guess I can do it...I just don't want to drag it down and make it suck for everyone else by not doing my part as well as I should...This sounds like I can handle it :)

[neverending]

If you do, you'll just be ELIMINATED!

[bloodrayne]

If you do, you'll just be ELIMINATED!

Well, like I said...I have no idea how this works...I just hope there's no predator :D

[stubbornforgey]

I don't know whats wrong but my box is broken.

errrrrr...my pm box is broken that is ..

i know how you pervs think. :o


em dying to see how this pans out.

[Papillon Noir]

Well, like I said...I have no idea how this works...I just hope there's no predator :D

Seriously! That's how I got taken out in last time. :(

I'm very glad you clarified that! ;) But, you know, they're still going to make comments! :D

[_____V_____]

Well, like I said...I have no idea how this works...I just hope there's no predator :D

*watches NE put on a Predator mask*


Seriously though, your 4 Judges will be the Predators here. They do the hunting.

And from the looks of it, they ll have a lot of hunting to do.

[_____V_____]

[The Flayed One]

I've randomly drawn a name from a hat to be my arch nemesis for this game.

Papillon Noir, prepare for your doom!

[bwind22]

I need a backstage scandal or two to boost my popularity in the blogosphere.

*bwind22 kicks Flayed in the nuts, gives Murderdoll a titty twister then calls Alky a "fag" on live tv.*

Yeah, that oughtta get the ball rolling...

Now tell me who the judges are so I can sleep with one, then leak it to the net.

[_____V_____]

You are free to indulge in any sort of sportsmanship as you wish.

Remember, the more attention you draw towards yourself, the more chances you have of scoring well with the Judges. Constructively, of course. So show them the true fighting spirit you have, to give your best shot at winning this prestigious event.

Tomorrow, we will have grouping of the candidates.

All confirmed participants will be divided into 3 groups. From each of the groups, 3 winners will advance on to the Individual Elimination stage, alongwith ONE wildcard contestant chosen from the rest of the losing participants.

I hope you are preparing/prepared for this. All the best!

Oy yeah...waiting with excitements.:cool:

[bwind22]

V, you need to tell us the judges before we can score with them, constructively or sexually. Their anus's will bleed with delight by the time I'm through scoring with them. And then they will need reconstructive surgery to repair them.

*bwind22 elbow drops Roshiq, who was just standing there waiting with excitement.*

[_____V_____]

Have patience, my friend. All will be revealed tomorrow.

For now, plan your course ahead from the info I gave out earlier. ;)

[bwind22]

I guess I'm just gonna keep cyberassaulting my opponents until then, except for BloodRayne 'cause she could ban me. (And she'll take herself out of the running in a day or two anyway, so I may as well stay on her good side.)

[GorePhobia]

Good luck everyone.

May the best man or women win.

[bwind22]

Good luck everyone.

May the best man or women win.


*bwind22 slaps Gore in the face.*

Puss.











:D

[roshiq]

*bwind22 elbow drops Roshiq, who was just standing there waiting with excitement.*

hehehe...we'll see...we'll see!;)

[_____V_____]

Good morning folks,

The deadline is still 24 hours away. But it is time for you all to have a peek at the groups you are in, and meet your Judges.

So onward...into the Official Thread in just a few minutes!
