Chad, when I was taped on camera in NYC, they also used used a flip video camera. The setup they had for the video interview I saw when I shook hands with you was pretty much the same as what they had in NYC.
I should've tweeted using their handle more lol. :roll: But I have retweeted them when they announced their audition date and used them a little so let's see if they notice also.

Congrats to Chad; that sounds like a pretty good bet to make it on the show. I hope so.


I had signed up for a June NYC audition date, then dragged a$$ and waited too late to get a train ticket. I chose not to spend the extra bucks, the time off from work, for yet another MAWG no-go experience, so I blew it off. I felt a little guilty for having "taken" a slot that someone else might've used, but see that the cattle call was opened to any and everybody, so nobody actually lost out due to me not taking my spot.

I've taken the day off for the 25 July College Park auditions with the tentative intent to show. I'm pretty sure that my advancing MAWGishness is not going to wow! 'em this time any more than it has for the last 10 or so shots I've taken, but we'll see.

I'm thinking of wearing a blue button-down shirt, maybe some khaki pants, and wearing my glasses. That's probably a look they don't see much...

No apology necessary, Chad.

Sounds like you hit this one out of the park!

Ha. I've posted more on the internet (specifically, here) about WWTBAM than Chad has tweeted.

Do you think it matters to them that most of those posts are anti-TPTB grumbles? :P

They don't read the Board, Tweet, and don't grumble.

And to do a Rodney Dangerfield, After you tweet and audition, make sure the AP you interview with is taller so it's easy for him to bend over so you can kiss his/her a$$. :lol:

That all sounds really terrific, Chad! I'm guessing you should feel pretty confident that the postcard will arrive in a good mood.

Unfortunately, I'm not very tech savvy... so do you think it might suffice if I just showed up at the audition wearing a Tweetybird Tshirt with a sign that says "I Love WWTBAM?" :wink:

Yes... but that would mean, well, knowing what that means.

When Twitter first started, I signed up online just for the french of it, but haven't gone near it since. A few friends contacted me after that saying they were "following me," and I replied "cool- but don't bother- I'm not going anywhere... just come by and we'll watch a movie or sumthin."

I don't have a smartphone, and if I did I wouldn't know what to do with it. I'm just thrilled that I've learned how to text! woo hoo

If you were going to make a twitter joke with WWTBAM, instead of saying "I love WWTBAM." You could say "I love @millionairetv." Because that is their username on twitter. That is theoretically how your tweet would look if you posted that as a tweet and wanted them to read it since you "mentioned" them

I went this morning and arrived just in time to make it into the first session. I passed the test, thank goodness-a few of them stumped me and I know I got at least 3 wrong. I didn't get a video interview, so I am assuming it will be a no :(
I had a good time though. Good luck to everyone else auditioning in the future and those that did today.
