I looked over the contest rules today..and i am amused.. and slightly annoyed.. but meh.. here goes...
c. Female applicants will be matched up with the single male and Male applicants will be matched up with the single female.
Shucks.. there goes my chance at renee... haha
d. Initial 1st round judging and elimination will be based on those applicants selected by most popular votes from the web site. Subsequent winners from round 2 to the final selected winnerswill be chosen by the single male, Travis Rycroft, and the single female, Renee Hill.
Votes from the website had NO effect on the outcome of this contest at all.. not even the 1st round..think of all the hits the peoria info site got and it didnt do anything..ha..and that is, for the record, the most..badly designed website i have ever been to..
e. Applicants must be present at each event to advance on to the next round.
Riiiight.. This is yet another rule that wasnt followed. Let me think. The first night 2 of the girls werent even there at all.. they showed up the following week and were allowed in due to the low turnout of the contest itself. Then, during the elimination round, one girl didnt even show up until 5 minutes before the actual elimination, thus missing the Q&A trivia round and other activities) and
she got chosen to proceed. Even though theres no time limit on being present, she was one of the ones that wasnt there the first week at all. And to add to the irony of the whole situation - the two contestants with the
highest votes (though they werent the judge of who proceeded and who didnt) were the two contestents that were eliminated.
Why make rules if you don't follow them.
