What did I just walked into? 
---
It cute when posters sign up for games KNOWING that they have to do short entries before deadline.
Why would you sign up and dropout after the second class?
Those spots should have been use for someone that was capable of finishing the entries before deadline and want to finish Charm School.

I wonder if every challenge someone is going to drop out now or not submit 
When Robbie returns let him back in, that's my two cents.

Well, this is disappointing.
I believe in being open, so I'm not going to mince my words.
To drop out of a game (especially only one or two challenges into it) is a wholly selfish action. You're thinking only about the fact that you don't have time for it - but totally ignoring the fact that myself and Ammer have put lots of time and effort into the planning and implementation of this game that your departure is now throwing a wrench into. If you've never hosted a game here, ask someone who has - it's a lot of work. Do I complain about it? No, I'm happy to do it, in fact. It's just super frustrating when others aren't willing to put even a fraction of that effort in their participation. No time? All you have to do is send a YouTube link with two sentences about why it's your anthem. It's not like we're asking for essays or photoshop work here. I'm not sure what you guys expected when signing up, but submitting is part of it. It may sound harsh, but it just reeks of entitlement. So many of you expect things handed to you, but aren't willing to put the necessary work in.
To the ones who sign up and drop out the second they're asked to do any sort of work: you appear to lack drive, commitment, and consideration of others. I have to say, it's a shame that of all games you're dropping out of it's this one, because here you could have actually learned a thing or two about not being that way.

I have to agree with boyonce. Adam, the fact that you say you have "no time" for this game yet you suddenly have enough time for I Love Money says a lot. You only had to copy and paste a Youtube link and type up a paragraph at the minimum, while in ILM you have to do a lot more than that. If you didn't want to play the game then just say that, but using these cheap excuses.  And as for the rest of you, can you please not sign up for a game if you're just going to quit one challenge later. I get that we all have personal things going on in our lives, but if your life is THAT busy then you shouldn't have signed up in the first place. We chose you because we saw potential. It's a slap in the face for us to pick you over other members that wanted to be in this game as well for you to just drop out 2 seconds later.
My two cents.

I mean, let's call a spade a spade. Adam's decision to quit likely has very little to do with "not having enough time" but more so not liking the judging he got with the first challenge. Mere minutes after it was posted, here he was, rolling his eyes at it.
If one doesn't know how to handle constructive criticism, then I guess this certainly isn't the game for them.

Not this season being Charm School Season 3. Quitters are spitters, and no one likes a spitter.

I volunteer to take Adam's place, boyonce. I'm ready to be objectified once again.

Same thing I posted but in a shorter version.

So headmaster, when are we getting the entries?

Okay, let's get one thing straight.
You think I quit a game because I didn't like my judging? You need to get a reality check. When every other person quit I don't see pages about them but all of the sudden when I quit you have to try to break down every little bit of it.
Why did I quit? Because I've signed up for too many games and I wasn't having much fun in this one. If any of you dare think that I just quit because I didn't like ONE judge's comments for the FIRST round then please leave because I've already told people that is not the reason. And I'll maintain the attitude that if you don't believe me then it's not my problem to spend time and effort trying to thoroughly convince you.
Maybe I didn't want to say I wasn't having fun BECAUSE I know you put a lot of effort into this game and I wanted to be more polite. Also, I won't be home for almost all of August and this game will probably still be going on then.
The fact you guys just went on for a page about me quitting because I didn't like a judge's comment (which isn't true) is in fact rather rude. You don't know the facts, and, although this may shock some of you, you don't know everything and can't read minds. Proceed to gasp.
In fact, boyonce extended the deadline and I've been out all day (like every day recently) and haven't been able to respond to boyonce inviting me back, so you don't even know if I'd be coming back. Although looking at this page you obviously have already established me as a quitter so there's no use in staying.
