Chip was clearly only doing this for the ride. He initially didn't want to apply, and only later changed his mind. He also answered "hell yes" when asked if being selected as a member of the duo would "cramp" his lone wolf style.

He's very active on the forum, we have a long history, and there is some compatibility, but his recent style tends to make enemies at times and this just isn't the right competition for him. I like Chip a lot, but I think he's better off and more entertaining as a solo artist.

While WW is a gamer, there were some minor compatibility issues. However, his only real downside was that he's pretty new to the forum and I didn't really know him too well before this. I'm definitely glad he applied and I got to know him better here.

Maybe in a year after I divorce whoever I pick here, WW and I would be ready to form a super duo of our own.

this is exciting!
Dont dare rank snrub higher than my fine self.

Oh shit. Well, I tried. Thanks for the banner though.

There is no question that Joe is an entertaining fellow, but like ChipMunky, I just can't see him in a super duo as he's such a character on his own. He's better off on his own and will thank me later for this.

Also, we don't have a ton in common, and he does ruffle some feathers at times and would probably get me into more trouble than I'd like.

it is clear by my signature that i am quite desiring this position.

No problemo! You can also expect a completely free personalized letter of thanks in your PM within 24 hours.

So will we be finding out who becomes your new partner today, Tony? Or will the reveal be done over the next couple of days?

Impressive, but your score has already been set in stone, so any 12th hour attempts to improve it are not necessary.

Plan on the final announcement being tomorrow.

Meh, all the sucking up...

I'm sure Tony knows not to be too influenced by that

There is a slight possiblity that be.redy is only being cut because of his puppies' cuteness may cause slight confusion as to whether my dog is the cutest of them all.

I feel a little bad for be.redy because he had to endure his name being misspelled countless times, but he was a great sport about it. He's another one that I got to know a little better through this competition, and I'm glad he applied.

But, in the end his puppy was too cute and his name too hard for me to spell.

getluv shocked me by showing a tremendous amount of desire for this position, and he put up with a lot of crap I through his way. However, in the end I'm not ready to give up our sparring and become a team. I like getluv more than I'd ever admit, but I prefer him to stay as my pretend nemises.

I almost felt like a little of getluv died when he started to pretend to like the Xbox 360 in his interview, and it scared me. I want the old video game hating getluv back, and I think cutting him is a step in the right direction.

minneapple is one of my new favorite people at KJ. She was highly entertaining in this thread, and showed a tremendous drive to try to get the job. I particularly liked her style when she was trying to throw another contestant (that was a friend) under the bus.

She had almost all the traits I was looking for, but in the end, the fact that she's very new to KJ and a relative unknown was her downfall.

Maybe posting a pic of my super-cute dog would've given me more points...

I might be able to live with being lower then Snrub being that he is a dashing Englishman......................Michael however, no smelly Scotsman is getting one over me!!

Yesterday I saw a shirt that said "Montana P.I." on it. Thought of you.

Is it ok if we speculate on the choice publically?

:O

Wait a minute!! The results are based entirely on the interview? I was kinda...under the impression that there would be more

Is it possible to appeal the results if they are not what I desired?

It depends... if your puppy is really cute, it could threaten my dog. For example, if you're going out to the bar, take a few ugly friends as you'll look that much sexier. Don't take the good looking friends, or you'll become the "ugly" one.

I'm not last. I think I'm gonna cry...

I thought I'd be dead last...

A shirt that said Montana PI? Was the person wearing it really hairy and smoking a pipe?

And speculate away. Heck, do whatever you want... the scores are already set in stone.

Not with somebody like Joe around. Although I am surprised getluv placed as high as he did. Chipmunky should be higher I think, but I'm not Tony's partner yet so I can't really do anything about it.
