*** IDOL 8/28 REPORT *** from Ian Shires

The numbers have gotten VERY interesting…on a few levels. The patterns of voting, and effects of those votes on the average system we put in place this year, is telling me more about each project than ever before. So that’s a good thing. For me, and for the contest, cause, the race is TIGHT, and that keeps people talking about it…and all of the projects are the winners then.

So! No actual place changes, but, hello Varsity Squad…proof positive that one bulk order can be a game changer. And we know we have multiple bulk orders to come, as the deadline races towards us.

But then of course, it raises the specter of that one order that can change the game, is that fair? And doesn’t that invite “buying” the contest? It’s something we’ll have to give further thought and development to for next year…as the retailers do seem to have all the power here. Exciting stuff though.

here’s today’s numbers!!! I’ll likely try to do one over the weekend, then Monday…we start the mail-in/retailer order watch for a few days…and should be able to announce a winner by next Friday….
