Done.

**Longfordian** · 11/09/2009, 3:18 PM

Given you a vote there now. You'd know it was Friday afternoon.

**theworm2345** · 11/09/2009, 6:04 PM

I honestly don't know is voting for this "Dave the Rave," he looks like and comes off as one of the biggest douchebags I've come across.

**tetsujin1979** · 11/09/2009, 9:47 PM

just hope MTV think the same as you worm!

**tetsujin1979** · 12/09/2009, 7:48 PM

can't believe this, voting has ended for entrants from some countries (Romania, Ukraine, Netherlands, Portugal, and a few others) but the deadline for the remaining countries (Ireland, UK, Germany, Spain, Italy and Greece) has been extended until the 5th October!

Going to let this thread slip down the board, but I'll bump it again closer to the closing date

Thanks for all the votes so far lads, really appreciate it

bumping this thread again, voting closes on monday, and I'm not doing too badly.
some countries have had their entrants already interviewed and passed, the entrants from Norway were just told they were going! One girl I had down as a certainty (Ukrainian, 94% approval, loads of photos and vids) was rejected.

Any last minute votes and comments you can leave post are appreciated: http://www.fanwalk.tv/tetsujin1979
I'd like to break 1,000 comments before it closes

Interviews will next week, I'll keep you all informed

**tetsujin1979** · 05/10/2009, 11:45 AM

quick update

voting has ended, and I've made it through to the next round
all qualifying profiles (voting > 50%) will be appraised over the next few days and candidates will be interviewed for the final 100 positions. Although some have already been told they will be going

thanks for all the votes and comments guys, couldn't have done it without you!

**Bluebeard** · 05/10/2009, 1:28 PM

Good luck with the interview!

**Mr A** · 05/10/2009, 2:06 PM

And remember- be yourself.

Unless that is likely to undermine your chances.

In that case be someone else.

Tets, if you see "Dave the Rave" give his ass a good kicking

**tetsujin1979** · 06/10/2009, 1:10 AM

these are the profiles of the 34 Irish entrants who made it to the second round - http://www.fanwalk.tv/gallery.jsc?of...ter-entries=34 - I reckon there's 6 spots going for it, so I've about a 1 in 6 chance of getting through.

I had actually relaxed my previous opinion of Dave The Rave. Then I read his blog - http://www.davidokeeffe.com/ if you're interested - and I've come to the conclusion that no jury would convict me.

**tetsujin1979** · 07/10/2009, 10:02 AM

thought I'd mention this - MTV are offering a pair of wireless MBS-400 speakers - http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/prod...erview/mbs-400 - to the 2,000th person to become a friend of the fanwalk facebook page. The count is currently at 1952, so worth keeping an eye on it - http://www.facebook.com/fanwalk

bad news guys.

there was an interview yesterday for the final Irish selection. Of 12 interviewees, only 7 were going to be picked, and I'm one of the five who missed out.
Needless to say, I'm pretty gutted at this, I've been registered on the site since very early on and put a lot of work in.
Thanks for all your help and comments and votes, I really did appreciate it.

**Mr A** · 13/10/2009, 12:29 PM

Sorry to hear that. Thanks for letting us know.

**tiktok** · 13/10/2009, 12:31 PM

Unlucky, especially given my attempts to matchmake with that lovely German Girl.

**Magicme** · 13/10/2009, 1:39 PM

Aw no. Hard luck Tets.

**Bluebeard** · 13/10/2009, 3:04 PM

That is an awful swizz - hard luck.

Was that @r$h0£e Dave the Rave included? If so, could someone give Maxi a bell?

cheers lads, was pretty down about it earlier. Put a lot of work into it over the last 2 and a bit months, and all for naught.
The final list was due to be released today, but it's been held back until next monday
There are going to be 7 from Ireland, and I can tell you that 4 of them are:
Dave the Rave: http://www.fanwalk.tv/en_ie/profile.jsc?id=4288
Ger McMullan: http://www.fanwalk.tv/en_ie/profile.jsc?id=7027
Ema Kavanagh: http://www.fanwalk.tv/en_ie/profile.jsc?id=6630
Gillian Deegan: http://www.fanwalk.tv/en_ie/profile.jsc?id=2847

Whatever about Dave, he comes off as a complete tossbag playing with daddy's money, but he did at least put some work into the competition
Ger and Ema (

) only joined in the last 2 weeks of the competition, did almost no work, and somehow qualified.
I know 3 of the 5 people who were rejected were myself
Stefan Brennan (who seemed a fairly decent bloke) http://www.fanwalk.tv/en_ie/profile.jsc?id=5283
and Donna Hutchinson (likewise): http://www.fanwalk.tv/en_ie/profile.jsc?id=6441

Given the calibre of those going, looks like you dodged a bullet there, Kimosabe. It seems that the criteria of votes and comments, etc, doesn't stand up too much compared to you representing the target demographic and perhaps what you are prepared to offer in interview.
