The curtain rises on another poll, and falls on another contestant asencrefloue drops. This one is particularly difficult because he was someone who spent quite a bit of his time pushing the boundaries and making some delightful music. I say “delightful’ because *I* was delighted by it! :)
Thank you for coming out this season and for doing things your own way. You definitely had a huge impact on this season and I’m really glad that you will be on the Jury helping to shape the remaining weeks.
As for the rest of you. There are 2 topics, so, of course, there are 2 polls.
I say “of course” knowing that every time something is expected, it gets turned on its head, so if you were expecting a twist - the lack of a twist is the twist.
2 polls and we are losing 1 from each of them.
The one with the fewest votes in each poll will be leaving us. The first poll will have it’s eliminations first, followed by the second. (just giving you the order, in case the bottom ends up being the same contestant in each - and someone almost always asks that question).
The Spirit Byes came into effect this week, and of course the Jury is going to save someone. Which should make things even more interesting. (and of course, the Legacy Advantage is still out there, keeping everyone on their toes!)
The polls will close on Friday, July 21st at 9pm EDT.
Good luck to everyone!

Gary, if I remember correctly, the Jury doesn't have to save someone. They may choose to grant an immunity, but I believe they can also pass on it, if that's where the votes lead. Unlikely, but possible?
A question for the group - and Gary I suppose if he chooses to answer - what is the Legacy Advantage? I have no memory of it whatsoever, which likely just means I wasn't paying enough attention at some point earlier this season. But I'm curious to know what it does so if anyone else remembers and wants to share that would be awesome!

It went to someone who's not in the competition anymore, so it must be something that got passed on, but otherwise, Gary is very sneaky and not telling us!
Unless I also missed something.It'll be interesting to see if it comes back into play or not.
LJ Idol Wiki.
I'm sure it would be a massive amount of work at this point, with ten seasons already in the can, but it would probably be extremely useful to anyone playing in the future.
If there was a Lostpedia (and there was), there could certainly be an LJ Idol one.

If Gary announces a season 11, or a mini-season, we may have to crowd source the work and pull this together.
