The voting has now come to a close for Character #4. I’m pleased to announce that the name that got the most votes for this character is Lester!
Congratulations go to the winner, Rochelle Ramos, for getting the most votes! This is Rochelle’s second win! She’s a tough competitor! Rochelle not only named this character, but her own name will appear in the movie credits!
Now starts the Voting Period for Character #5! The Judges discussed the pros and cons of each name and then voted on them. Names were chosen by majority rule, which meant that a minimum of three votes were needed to move the names to the Voting Round. In this round both names received three votes. One of the names was submitted twice by two different people, but the rules say that the first person to submit a name gets the credit. Congratulations to the two finalists who made it to this round!
Now the naming of this character rests with all of you. It’s out of the Judges’ hands. It’s your decision. Please take a minute to vote and show your support. This is your last chance to vote for a character’s name!
Some reminders:
In this round we are also including the current name of the character, Elliot, for you to vote on. Both of the other names also start with the letter “E,” so it’s a battle of the “E” names! Do you like the character’s current name or do you prefer one of the finalists’ character names? You can only vote for one of them!
The Submission Period for Character #5 has now come to a close. I’ve closed the comments on the thread so no further names will be accepted. We again beat the number of submissions we had for our previous character with a humongous 174 submissions for this round! There was some serious competition going on here!
For the next week the judges will deliberate and choose our favorites. The finalists will be notified by email that one or more of their entries made it into the final round. If you don’t receive an email from me, your entry was not chosen. I will post the names on the Blog next Monday where everyone will get a chance to vote for their favorite!
The voting has now come to a close for Character #3. I’m pleased to announce that the name that got the most votes for this character is Sebastian Grey!
Congratulations go to the winner, Cheryl Johnson, for getting the most votes! Cheryl not only named this character, but her own name will appear in the movie credits!
Now starts the Voting Period for Character #4! The Judges discussed the pros and cons of each name and then voted on them. Names were chosen by majority rule, which meant that a minimum of three votes were needed to move the names to the Voting Round. In this round one name received four votes and the other two names received three votes. Two of the names were submitted by the same finalist. One of the names was submitted twice by two different people, but the rules say that the first person to submit a name gets the credit. Congratulations to the two finalists who made it to this round!
Now the naming of this character rests with all of you. It’s out of the Judges’ hands. It’s your decision. Please take a minute to vote and show your support.
Some reminders:
Here are the finalists’ character names. Please vote for one of them!
Last week we were left hanging as to the winning name for Shannon’s character. It was a tie between Tara and Madeleine. This meant that the judges had to break the tie and make the final decision. The judges voted and it was unanimous. The winning name is the name the character already had…Tara!
This means that we will not be naming a winning contestant for this round. But the contest isn’t over! We still have two more characters that do not yet have names!
The voting has now come to a close for Character #2 and we have a two-way tie! The two names with the most votes were Tara and Madeleine!
This means that the judges will have to break the tie. We’ll take the next week to discuss and vote on which one we like best. Then, on Monday, December 27, 2010, at 6:00 p.m. PT, I’ll post the winning name here on the blog.
There are only two more names left, so join in on the fun!
The Submission Period for Character #4 has now come to a close. I’ve closed the comments on the thread so no further names will be accepted. We again beat the number of submissions we had for our previous character with a whopping 119 submissions for this round! I am blown away!
For the next week the judges will deliberate and choose our favorites. The finalists will be notified by email that one or more of their entries made it into the final round. If you don’t receive an email from me, your entry was not chosen. But there is one more character to be named, so please keep trying! I will post the names on the Blog next Monday where everyone will get a chance to vote for their favorite!
