Ack! You guys may already know this since I've been too busy all week to keep up, but I just saw that the lottery information had been updated for the Anniversary. I was hoping it'd be an email lotto to make it open to people who don't live in the area!

Anthony said last Monday that in addition to the lottery, a few other special things are in the works to get people in that couldn't otherwise afford it/get to go. He said to keep checking NYTW's site to stay updated...

I wonder if I have the energy for that sort of thing. Probably not. I'd be too afraid of being cliche, even though cliche will win.

*waves* I just got home re: The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part seven I really want to go badly to the 10th anniversary. I wish I had saved money up. I just don't think my mom would let me spend my money on that even if I had the cash.

They'll probably have rules and qualifications out the wazoo to be eligible for the contest. I hope it's just better than the Ultimate Renthead "I have a Mark scarf, therefore I deserve to go" contest.

Or have it be about someone who has volunteered with AIDS victims or something, you know? Not some upper middle class kid from Long Island writing a "Rent has changed my life because..." letter.

I could never win an essay contest. It would be amazing if they had SRO.

People kept telling me I should've entered the contest to go to the premiere, and now I sort of regret it, because if I had just talked to the damned video camera, MAYBE I could've had more of a chance than "OMG I SAW RENT A BILLION TIMES!" people. That sort of thing makes me want to enter if there is an essay contest, but then there's the whole... notion like what Mandi said -- I'm so not the biggest Renthead. I'm just an emotional freak.

My confidence in my writing ability was shattered by the sixth grade. I'd write something, but I don't feel like I'd have enough of a meaningful experience to share.

SRO would be great, but I have no idea how that could work. If it required people being the first in line, people would be camping out.

I guess it would all depend. I wrote a Rent related essay once, and was told it was one of the best essays I had written.

You always write better when you care about the topic. I think it could work, but it could also sound contrived, you know? And you KNOW the question will be super-open-ended.

Exactly.

And too, I'm pretty sure they aren't going to be looking for maybe the greatest writer of our time, in technical terms. But someone who's been affected and how that's changed them (or whatever the topic is...)

I think if any of you just write what you feel, and not whatever clichés you think they're looking for, you'd have a good shot. Why should only someone who slept out overnight twenty times be eligible in your minds? They at least got to see the OBC plenty of times already.

By the way, I'm probably going to be out of town that weekend, so I'm counting on someone from here going and telling us all about it.

I'm not really afraid of going the "give them what they want" route, but more of accidentally falling into those make-you-roll-your eyes cliches.
