The end, or the beginning...

No, in all honesty, I'm wicked curious about who has won already! I've been religiously voted each day, so I'm excited to see is deserving of all the time we've put into this! Plus, it'll be weird thinking about tuning into the next season, and seeing one of the top 10 in the actual house. What What!
It was really cool getting to know all of you on here, and I'm excited for you to take advantage of the next opportunity coming your way. Remember, if it didn't work out this time, who's to say it won't happen next?
Good job top ten for all your hard work gettin' those votes in. Crazy impressive. For those of you who are dissapointed, c'mon. It was fun at the end of the day, and plus, it beats standing in line for hours at a casting call...

Waiting to find out like the rest of you....

My Voting Patterns...

So, I've found myself actually voting for different people the past few days. At this point, we all have our favorite, or a couple favorites. Though, I've truly been sitting back, reading through their responses and asking myself who would be the most interesting to sit and talk with. Who would I want to sit next to on a long flight to a challenge?
Hopefully, and this is very sincere, you the voters are thinking about that too. Remember, this is a great opportunity for you, the viewer to choose who you'd like to see on the show. Therefore, vote for reasons that are honest, as in: Whow would make the annoying girl on the show cry? Who would get too drunk and pee his pants? I kid, I kid.
Who has the most interesting story? Who makes you ask questions about certain opinions you have? Basically, who is a refreshing character that you would like to investigate further!

That being said, I'm going to vote now. Its been such a pleasure to get to know some of the finalists, and also some of you that didn't necessarily make it into the top10. It was fun! And to those that didn't get the votes, and are redirecting their angst towards me and my blog. Check out the sites: bbc.com & iraqbodycount.org. You'll learn something, and do something a bit more productive with your time.

Cheers Finalists. Here's to you! Best of luck, keep truckin', its almost over, either way

So excited

Less than three days left. Can you believe it? It seems to have gone by so fast, yet so slowly. Such an adventure. Did YOU vote today?

Irishboy86 Question

So, what is this question he asked? If you (irishboy - or anyone really) could please comment back on my wall so I know what your question is, then I'll be glad to answer it. Cheers!

TOP 10

I voted today...did you?

WOW!

So, sheesh, look at that Top10! I'm not surprised with some of them, as I've been rooting for a number of our finalists.
However, there are a couple surprises. To all of you that did NOT make the Top10, remember, it is no reflection of you or your character. For one reason or another, it just worked out that you were not chosen. MTV and BMP have a certain science about how they cast a season, and unfortunately, you weren't part of that science. Despite this, let's focus on those that DID make the Top10.
Let's get to know them better, and find out what we can expect, if THEY are brought in to the real world house.
So EXCITED FOR YOU GUYS IN THE TOP 10. ONE OF YOU, I"LL BE GETTING TO KNOW VERY WELL! CONGRATS

Blogs read

Hey Guys, I know a bunch of you guys are skeptics out there, but we actually do read through your blogs and see what you guys have to say. Its fun reading them because at first, many of you throw out this hardcore image of fun, craziness and all-around madness. Yet, once you kids have the chance, you've been surprising, breaking it down for us, showing us your softer side. And you know what, I like it! Keep it coming.

I'm gonna get back to Wimbledon, though, do know, we DO read through all your answers and see your vlogs and take it into account, so don't feel as if your effort is in vain. We wouldnt do that to you kids...

Keep trucking!

Hashisback's Question

No, by all means you're right. All of you kids who are late, but worth the wait, don't worry. We're keeping a special eye out for you. That's the whole idea behind having your guys enter the comp. That being said, know that sometimes, even when you have the most votes, it just takes the right personality for someone at MTV or BMP to take notice and bring you on board as a REAL castmember. How sweet of a story would that be?

You know, its extremely interesting to hear the stories behind how everyone got cast. Just imagine if you went from late...to Great!

P.S. Loved your vid Hashisback. Very sweet and genuine as well.

CHrisMP

I have to say, I think his Fourth of July Video was really sweet. He started out trying to be all bad ass, Long Island - "I'll wait until the last moment to do this, I don't give a F*&K..." Yet, throughout the entire video there is this undercurrent of real emotion. As if to say, passively, "Hey, I really want this..."
Explaining the entire concept of The Real World, to a parent, is comical really. I think Chris did a good job illustrating that.

So, that's just a random thought about that. I found your video to be very genuine, which is refreshing when you watch a lot of casting videos.

Umbrella

Hey Kiddies
Its gettin' hot out there in the July heat. Air is on high, while I stand underneath my Umbrellla-ella-ella...

I'm that lame. Anyways, how's everyone doing?! Nervous? I can't wait to see who comes out on top! There are soooo many predictions and conspiracy theories going on. Its hilarious...and telling...

So, as BMP steps in to interview the Top50, finds out more and decide the Top 10, I'd like to hear from you guys. Who do YOU think is gonna make the Top 10?!! RickyisAwsome Vs. PrettyBoi..or whatever his name is. Also, what happened to our girl Antasha, the aspiring "Broadcast Journalist" at E! Television...

My predictions follow:

...as yet undecided...

I seriously want to hear from you guys before I start making decisions. Who do you think is gonna be left out in the pouring rain? And who do you think is gonna be safe underneath my "Umbrella-ela-ella-eh-eh-eh". Tell me what you think, and I'll start an unofficial poll of sorts!

Cheers,
Ty

Down and Dirrrrty

WOWZA! look at how competitive its all getting. As you know, some people DO know how to manipulate certain forms of online contests. However, don't think for one minute any of these people get through our sneaking, laser defenses. In fact, our forces rival those of the Decepticons.

if you don't believe us, well, you can ask Optimus Prime yourself! In the meantime, I love how into this you guys are getting. Remember, if we you don't vote, NO ONE gets on the show. Who do you think is the most interesting? The person of the most substance? Who do you think could teach others about the world, while learning about it concurrently?

All of these things are important for me when I vote. And yes, I DO VOTE! So, leave me the love on my page, and maybe I'll have to throw some votes your way!

In the meantime, I'm gonna interview some of our leaders to see how they are so successful with getting all ya'll to vote their way!

Cheers,
Ty

Requirements...

I'm curious as to how many people will actually not make it to the next round because they didn't answer all the questions, as illustrated in my incredible, witty vlogs.

But seriously, BMP is really strict, and they stressed that over and over again while we were auditioning. Best of luck Top50, plus 11th hour extras!

Hot Profile Pics

Call this social commentary or simply accurate obsevation, but have you noticed that the hotter the profile pic, the more profile views a profile gets? I mean, call me crazy, but, the strategy seems to work.
So, as shallow as it sounds, if you want to get more votes, well, you know, sex it up!

Weekend Blues...

I missed all of you! So, how was your weekend? Fun? What did you guys do? I spent most of my time at the beach playing frisbee. Yes, see, even reality stars need time to relax and sun. I mean, its not Malibu, but South Bay, Massachusetts is pretty glam...if you enjoy Red Sox hats.

Look for a new Vlog today detailing what steps are necessary for all ya'll in Round 3 right now. Plus, how you guys who aren't in the Top200 can still play a very intergal role in choosing the next cast of the real world. What What! (enter Janelle and her big hair)

Alright Ladies...

some of you look like your auditioning for "Flava O' Love 3". Especially you, yeah you, winning the "Late - but worth the wait" competition. A popsicle AND skimpy top. You're the Real World's answer to Flava's very own, Ms. Pumpkin.

Let's see some class ladies...or I"m sending you to Charm School...

My VLOG - Watch it

especially if you are in the Top200. There is important information for you to read concerning the rules of the contest. If you don't have one already, go and get a web cam. I know it sucks, but, if you were doing this the organic way, that all of us in the past have, you'd have to get a video camera, which is way more expensive and annoying.
That being said, watch the Vlog to get information on what is needed of you to pass on to Round 4. Remember, even if you have the most votes, you have to abide by OUR rules (and MTV's) so give it a look, and get to work!

Less Than Jake...

Is a band my friends in high school loved, as they were in a really "punky" stage in their life. Despite this, there is less than three hours left for all you to get those votes in. What happens in three hours?
The Top 200 will be left to be voted on! So, grab all your friends from myspace, friendster and facebook.com, have them vote for you and make your dream come true. Remember, nothing great happens without persistance!

Current Leaders

So gays (and gals) have you looked at who is winning the competition thus far? I know, right? Are these the people you want to get to know over a five month period? Really? These are the people?
I mean, no offense, top five, but I'm not convinced you have what it takes to "keep it Real" for five months. Want to prove me wrong? Update those profiles of yours. Tell all of us why you are so interesting, fabulous, crazy, fun, memorable. Remember, I'll probably have to do a challenge with whoever wins, and, you know what, I want to make sure you're fun too!

Ok, ok, I'll acquiese just a bit, Rickyisawesome, you seem like a fun guy. But you're from Studio City, and as principle, I tend to shy away from People who chose to live in the Valley. (Commence throwing rotten produce)

Last snarky comment of the day goes to....drum roll please...MarkyMark42. He's from North Hollywood people. I'm not sure if you kids are aware, but North Hollywood (again, part of the valley) is known primarily for being the internet porn capital of the world. Do you want your next Real World Cast member to be someone tied into the seedy world of internet porn? Well, I guess it could make things interesting, but you get my point.

Consider this all food for thought as you vote for your favorites. That being said, if that is food for thought, consider me FULL!

CASTING SPECIAL on MTV!

So, because I´m so fabulous, MTV will be featuring myself, and a whole slew of less important real worlders. I´m kidding. In all seriousness though, this week, a new casting special talking all about YOU will be on MTV.

Yeah, that means, a bunch of you could be on tv! So, check out the REALWORLDCASTING.COM casting special, starting this week, on MTV! It´s gonna be hilarious, I should know, I was in it!

The 11th Hour itch

Öh, man. I forgot to get enough votes in round one to try and be on the new real world cast, season 20.

If that´s you, think again, you have another CHANCE!

Okay, cheeze aside, really, you do have a good shot, you just have to go and get the votes. I know it may seem daunting, however, its really cool that MTV is letting you enter in at the 11th hour. So, get going guys, get your friends to vote and you may still have a chance.

seriously though, what are you doing right now. stop reading this, and try-out!

Round 2...

So, guess what, the clock is ticking. Basically what that means is that you all have seven more days to collect as many votes as possible to make it to the third round. It will be at that point that 200 people will be in the running to become America´s Next Top Model, I kid, I kid. You would be in the running to become the seventh castmember.

So, with that in mind, let´s think about why you should hussle. Imagine getting to live in a hot pad for five months with six other incredibly hot, interesting and out-spoken people. Plus, there are the challenges!

So, if you are sitting there thinking to yourself, well, I know I´m perfect for the show, but I just don´t think I can get enough votes.Well, let me remind you this, dreams become reality, when action becomes paramount.

Wow, look at me. I got all Dr. Phil on your asses. Sorry about that. But really, I know so many people who would be good for the show but never try out. At the end of the day, don´t be self-defeating, get those votes, and imagine the possibilities!

buffest beefcake in the barn

i tell you what... i am loving!, absolutely loving this new feature. it allows me to see who the beefiest beefcake in the barn is. and, at the end of the day, isn´t that what its all about?

in all seriousness though, after my incredible advice on all these blogs, the videos are getting better. they are funnier, they are better shot, in general they are amazing!

so, with that said, keep me entertained! there are so many people who sit at work bored everyday who need to be passively entertained. so, by using the transitive properties, you are helping all those sad, bored workers. you...are saving the world...

sort of...

KEEP EM COMING!

also, where are my comments. I need validation constantly. so, remember kids, check out my video blogs to get secrets on how you can better your chance of becoming the next real world STAR

Competition

So, I was thinking, since I'm so narcissistic, I'm throwing a competition to see how serious you guys and gals are out there. And by this I mean that I want to see you guys comment on my wall. Watch my vblogs, because they hold deep, dark secrets that will help you get cast. Plus, I'm funny in them, or so I like to think. We all have dreams, right?

That being said, I'm going to start viewing all the people's profiles who watch my vblog then comment on my wall. Yes, I have that much time on my hand. Then, I will put the seven funniest videos up iin my ideal real world house. Trust me, it's worth your while...

Like Katherine McPhee

I'm so over it! Codaman88, we're officially breaking up. I feel dooped by you. You say you're from Montana, yet in your video, it clearly shows you in Runyon Canyon, Hollywood, doing a well-choreographed hip-hop routine.
Now, I still think you've got game, however, you need to explain yourself, as I find your story incongruent. What do you guys out there think?

Mama said..

There'd be days like this!
or so said the lovely yet enigmatic Priscille Zee, during a chill Minnesotan morning...

Well, you wanna know what my Mama said?
"Tyler, you are going BALD! You look TERRIBLE on the internet. Get back on TV!"

Ah, mother, if everything were that simple... She brings up an important point, however. Think about it, what do you guys think about the way you look on video? Honestly, I ask you this as you'll be confronted with a ot of realities once you start filming.

"Yes mother, I know that my hairline may look a bit pulled back, but its the stress of living a celebrity filled lifestyle!"
or so I told myself to make myself feel better. Whatever, I was just with fellow gay real world alum, Karamo: Philadelphia. Him and I were joking about the recession auf der Kopf.

Well, you know what Mom, I want guys to like me who respect me for me, the beauty on the inside, not just the outside. Like X-Tina said,
"I am beautiful, no matter what they say, words can't take that away."

Though I'm not necessarily a cracked out Tranny looking in the mirror, I feel like my pseudo-celebrity ala MTV is equally as heartwrenching... or maybe not

My mom also thinks I come off as arrogant on tv. This entire conversation occured while walking to get my haircut in West Hollywood, where every gorgeous gay guy moves to. So, as if my self-esteem wasn't under assault already.

no fear kids, i still love me...for me. So, let my former insecurities inspire you to embrace your own flaws, as you whore yourself to millions of internet users in the pursuit of fleeting fame. I kid, I kid... well sort of.

PornoCoda

So, as you can tell, I have a new crush already, his name being Codaman88. He's from Montana, cute, gay, dances, and well, if you like to dance and are gay, you probably like Michelle kwan. See, one can always apply the transitive properties cross-institutionally to substantiate an archaic point. Codaman88:Case in Point.
However, after having crushed on him for like, two nanoseconds, I've realized his picture makes him look like a porn star. And, well, I need a career man, no seedy, wanna'be baller. So, now I'm skeptical of my new crush. Check out his profile and tell me what you think...

On a scale from 1 -10, how Porntastic is Codaman88?

Profile Crushes

So, all you fag hags out there. I need your help. I'm single, and need a man in my life. Well, technically I don't "need" a man, more of a "Tyler got his groove back and wants a man" sort of thing. You get the drift.

Regardless, since all of you are so web savy, I need you to alert me of hotties who have profiles up here around the site. After the dissapointment known as Davis Mallory on Real World: Denver, I feel its my personal duty to get another interesting, hot, intelligent, multi-layered gay male cast member on the show. Because, well, I want ass on the next Challenge, and whoever makes it on Season 20, I promise you, I'll stick around and do one last challenge with you.

So, now that you have your assigment ladies (and gents) feel free to post on my wall profiles of people I should check out. And, if you do a good job, I'll give you a shout out.

Cheers,
Ty

TWO HOURS AND COUNTING!

While driving home from Swim Practice, I got a little excited. You see, I remembered that today is the day that all you lucky cyber-nerds will be rewarded for all your tireless work coaxing your friends to vote for you.
Now, I'll admit, I had to stop at Whole Foods first, because after a long swim practice, we all know how tasty meatloaf is.
"That'll be TWO lbs. sir, TWO! (shows peace sign to illustrate how much meat he wants...)"
So, as I bit into my tasty loaf of beef, I asked myself, what would I do if I were a few votes short, because let's face it, I know half of the people on this site right now are desperately trying to get people they know to vote as we type.
So, to all you kids out there, convinced that this is your time to shine, GO GET'EM.

And P.S., I'm totally loving all the profile videos I've seen out there. One especially, but we'll blog about that one later!
