FF, if it's any consolation, I'm the 'founder' of a nonprofit and hell away and gone from being squeaky clean.  I trust the GO! founders are the same. 

So, take a chance and bring your bones back here.  It should be fun! 8)

		<description>Why so FF?

All are invited to post comments and forums here but founders have to vote to bring on other founders.....

That's all - otherwise all the contestants could get their buddies to jump on and vote for them - all gets a bit 'big brother'

Right?? Come on...support it fish.</description>

Aaaah, the sacred founders club. There's no point in mere blog commentors being involved or following it now. Could have been good this, but it just got extremely sterile.</description>

		<description>GREAT!

All 5 finalists have returned to the garden...

We'll contact you all via email on Monday with you username and access so GO! get preparing for your entry.

TO CLARIFY THE RULES SO YOU ALL GET THE MOST FROM THIS:

1) Your article has to be posted on either Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday next week Dubai time which is Pacific +12 hours.

i.e 8am in LA is 8pm in Dubai. So if you're in LA and you post 10pm Monday night that works for 10am Tuesday night in Dubai.

Still with it?  ;)

2) Post comments on each others articles in the spirit of GO! Smell the flowers.
3) Become part of the community in all posts and at forums - anyone can start threads there.
4) Tell your network of friends to head over and get involved. Send them posts you like via email.
5) Voting will be by Founders next weekend.
6) Final 3 flowers founders announced all over cyberspace in early April.

		<description>oh...My....Gawd....I MADE IT!

I thought for sure my flatulence ran everyone away.  But, when you think about it, what is smell without flatulence?  Or is it, what is flatulence without smell....?

At any rate, thanks a heap!

Also, congrats to ALL the finalists!

		<description>I'm honored.

I'll be looking forward to p*ssing off people WORLDWIDE if I make the final cut.

I can see the titles now:

"GO! Smell my finger!"

"GO! Smell the elderly!"

"GO! Smell the smelly smell of something smelly!" (homage to Spongebob here)

Sweet.

<p>I&#8217;ll be looking forward to p*ssing off people WORLDWIDE if I make the final cut.</p>
<p>I can see the titles now:</p>
<p>&#8220;GO! Smell my finger!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;GO! Smell the elderly!&#8221;</p>

		<description>Urban we hear ya!

The voting was always to choose the final 3 from the 5 that we, Jim &#038; Em selected based on the 'feel' for fitting into GO! Smell the flowers. You played a part as you posted comments in the original blog idol post which was the idea.

Choosing 5 from 16 on purely what was entered taken to a community vote would have been difficult to manage and for all to post. 

We chose the founders to date -  now we've filtered 16 down to 5 and need the regulars here ot post comments on the 5 finalists posts from next Tuesday.

There we have it....who said democracy was dead?</description>

		<description>can we be told why some made the cut and why some didn't?

otherwise it makes it all a bit pointless as on american idol people vote for who they want in don't they? whereas here we are being told who is making it in without voting as such.</description>
