RE: Writer With the Force-- Survivor challenge [simultaneous Best & OWtF?]

Sorry, but I keep getting these nitpicking questions. 
What happens if the same person gets the most votes for Best and OWTF in the same round? Immunity for that round but not the next, I assume?

No worries! Questions are good... it gets me thinking about things that could happen before they happen, because knowing my luck they will, no matter how statistically impossible!  Statistics and I have never gotten along!
But to answer your question, yes they would use their immunity for that round, and the writer with the second most negative votes becomes OWTF!

Apparently, my entire job description can be boiled down to this... CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3 <--> HCO3 + H Then why have I been in school so long??   Hoping for baby Isabella. May you be stong and fight hard!

IMPORTANT NOTE:
I just found out that my sister and her family are going to be here longer than I thought which means we will all be staying at my grandmothers lake house until possibly Monday evening, a house that doesn't have internet.  So, since I was planning on posting the first challenge on Sunday, and I don't want to be late, I've decided I will post the challenge this Thursday. You will then have a week from Thursday to write your fic. I hope that is alright with everyone! If anyone has a problem with the new start please either PM me or let me know here!
I will still allow people to sign up until the 24th!

There is still time to sign up, so if you've been thinking about it, now is the time! 
Reminder: The prompt will be posted tomorrow (see previous post) and then I will be without internet most likely until Monday evening, so if you have any questions or things you are unsure about go ahead and ask!

Only two? Novice!
EDIT: I didn't see your response, Jaina_and Jag, until after I replied to LordNyax's. Yeah, I've got at least 10 stories I'm active on, a few that I haven't updated in a few months, and others that are in what I call the brooding stage within the bowels of my mind.
Kinda scary that my mind has bowels... well, I guess it's fertile breeding grounds!

Can I play, too? I've always wanted to write a challenge fic. Might as well start with a bang!

If anyone gets all five in his/her entry, it gets my vote for Best and One with the Force. Seriously.

Ok, I guess I'd get those votes because I got all five, and then some.
