Ok. Hopefully you all know the rules of the game by now. Yet there is a twist to this round. The person with the lowest score will be sent out of the game immediately. Unless someone doesn't send me a response in that case they will be kicked off. So here is how it will go. As soon as this is posted you have 24 hours to send a responce. One full day. This is to give you time to find all of the answers. You get one shot at the question. Also as soon as this immunity challenge is over voting will begin. Yes we are sending home two people. The challenge is changing a little bit. I am giving you the character and the show so here is how the points will be this time.

Type of role: 2 Points
Why is the character important to the show: 5 points
Who originated the role: points

Also, since I am giving you more time I am giving you one more character.

Total 39/40


Bobby Strong-
Hunter Foster 3
Leading 2
Bobby's important because he's the leader, so to speak, of the protest that's going on in the town. People have to pay to use toilets in the town, because it's being overrun by a huge business corporation, but the people were too poor, so they protest and try to overthrow the system. So basically- He is the revolutionary in the show who tries to fight the corrupt system. 5
Tracy Turnblad-
Marissa Jaret Winokur 3
Leading 2
Tracy's important because of her physicality, for one. She's chubby, and not the typical type of girl who would end up dancing on a TV show, because she's not conventionally "beautiful." But she's tenacious and determined, and she gets what she wants. Not only does she dance as is her dream, but she also leads her town to begin becoming desegregated, supporting the rights of black kids, too. 5
Berger-
Featured 2
Gerome Ragni 3
he is the narrator and lead of the tribe 2
Tobias-
featured 2
Ken Jennings 3
he discovers sweeneys murderous plot and kills him. he also does supporting work throughout the show. 3
35/40

Having heard from Marvin from Falsettos and Annie Oakley about them not being able to get this one done they have been excused. Unfortunately not having heard from Rod and Priceton or Desiree Armfeldt I have to ask them to leave. Since two people were just kicked off there will not be a vote tonight. Tomorrow there will be a challenge at 8:00 EST

Kim from Miss Saigon, you beat me by ONE POINT again, argh so close to taking you down.

[noahrp3]

Posted: 5/9/05 at 10:03pm

Sweeney Todd was a play before a musical (1924) and was on broadway and Jeannie begg did play Tobias.

[MTVMANN]

Posted: 5/9/05 at 10:10pm

I vote not to take that into total consideration, since everyone went with the musical version!!!!!!

[smartpenguin78]

Posted: 5/9/05 at 10:50pm

I saw that on IBDB, but I knew nothing about the show, like even if they were the same characters (other than Sweeny and Lovett). I say Audrie should get that point but not have it count against the rest of us.

[noahrp3]

Posted: 5/9/05 at 11:08pm

Why not? it did for Peter Pan.

[smartpenguin78]

Posted: 5/10/05 at 1:14pm

Well, I don't think it will change the overall results, so either way noahrp3. (Its not like I wound up in first anyway, argh Kim from Miss Saigon!)
I won't be here at 8 tonight, is it another day long challenge?

[MTVMANN]

Posted: 5/10/05 at 1:26pm

my appologies to you noahrp3!!!!!! I didn't realize that you wrote it down......I'm sorry, you should get points for the name, however you description of the role is that of Anthony Hope, unless that was what the original Tobias did......

At any rate, your still in the game!!!!!!

Good Luck!!!!!!
