Well, it’s still a bit down the road, but I thought I’d go ahead and create this year’s American Idol pool.
Go to:
Pool Name: Cecil’s American Idol
Pool password: cecil
Join up, get ready, and let’s see who can predict the best!
Done.
“Picks Due in: 36d 11h 14m 11s”
Hope I get 'em in on time.
I’m in!
36 days?
I am early! 
Thanks for doing this! I sucked at the Survivor one. I played the Idol one last year, and did ok.
Maybe I’ll win this year! 
Ok - well, I wasn’t last! 
Unfortunately, the way I signed up, it lists me as “My Picks” when looking at the standings. Is there any way to change this to “infinitii” or “infinitii’s picks”?
Ok, I am signed up. And thanks for setting this up!
All signed up, and ready to lose!
Sorry for the delay. I don’t see a way as moderator to do that. Can’t you do it under your own preferences or something?
I could delete you and have you re-register, if it means that much to you.
Amazing Race starts this week. Should we start one for that too?
Nah, don’t worry about it. I thought it might be confusing, but its fine with me.
So we get to make our first picks tonight?
No, the game will begin in earnest next week.
Won’t we know the top 24 tonight?
Hmm…good point. Ok, I guess it would be accurate to say we can start making our picks after tonight’s show.
Although I guess it would be more correct to say we can make our picks once Fun Office Pools updates the site, which will be at some point after tonight’s show.
What’s the deal with so few people signed up for this? It doesn’t even look like we have half the number as last year.
I’m in!
Is anyone going to tackle the spreadsheet version that was done for season 8? I like the idea of both but lack the spreadsheet skill to host it myself.
