2015 Bible Bee Game Show
Started by Matthew MinicaMatthew Minica
Somebody please post here and let us know when any more details are released about the Game Show. I'm afraid that they may not send an email to everybody and so the ones of us who aren't chosen will be left in the dark.
2 Corinthians 5:17
If I get an email, I will let you know, but since I'm not in the Game show, I don't know if I will get an email.
Steve W.
Thanks for creating this, Matthew!

I will let y'all know if I can (that is, if my parents think it's okay, and if it's not against the rules). Or, if someone else informs me that they have been chosen, I may just say something like, "Someone told me that they have been chosen to compete in the Game Show". That way, y'all know that you're not in it, without me potentially breaking any rules :).

Whoa. Why have I not heard about this??? O_o xP
Steve W.
Wow, when was this made??
Matthew Minica
Tuesday, I think. The more I look at it, though, the more it really just looks like some Primaries who don't know what they're talking about. =P
Matthew Minica
Okay, just found out for sure the GS contestants haven't been announced yet.
Isaac
If I'm not mistaken, the only people who could be selected are those who were interviewed at nationals
ZachB
Yes that's right.

I believe that those of you who auditioned will have received information by now regarding the Game Show.

2 Corinthians 5:17

2 Corinthians 5:17

2 Corinthians 5:17
Well, we do know that all things work together for the good to those that love Him. We don't understand why certain things happen now, but someday we will. =) The pieces of the puzzles in our lives will come together and form a beautiful picture, someday.
You'll have to tell me about what goes on at the "mini Nationals". sigh
2 Corinthians 5:17
Okay. :( I will try to be here for part of the afternoon, we'll see, but since our company is here, I may not be able to =/ Goodnight, Matthew!
Gloria
Congratulations to every one who made it!
M27

Congratulations!!! I dreamed the night before last that y'all didn't make it, and Dani sent me an email that said something like, "I have never been so disappointed in my life." I'm glad that that dream didn't come true! ;)

Good reminder! I was (and am) very disappointed that Joy and I weren't chosen, but I should be thankful that I still get to go :). And even though this is no fun right now, God did what was best for those of us who didn't make it, and He will be glorified through it all.
Emma
So did everyone who sent in a video audition get interviewed? How many people auditioned? Are they choosing the same number of people as last year? And what are they looking for in the people they choose? ^you might not know that. :P^
Matthew Minica

Amen! Knowing that I wasn't the only Semi-Finalist who auditioned and didn't get chosen is a bit of a comfort. x)

Not everybody, but most of them. They said more than 140 people auditioned. 72 were chosen - 24 in each age division. Who knows… but apparently they really don't like me, since this is year 2 that I've been rejected. xP

I've thought that several time since finding out :). I know of at least one other in Seniors who wasn't chosen. It doesn't appear to be score based at all this year…

Thank you for the reminder!! I can't wait for that day!
We'll definitely tell you all about it - well, as much as we can. ;)

That's exactly how I feel! It probably would have helped if I had ranked five or so places higher last year, but I'm pretty sad that they didn't choose me this year! Oh, well! I guess I'll have to do something different next year – dye my hair pink or something :). jk (It's probably actually not worth it… :D)

Hmm. Yeah, I guess so - there's some people in there who got 0 Oral scores and still got picked. That's kind of disappointing too - they're bound to have more passes and wrong answers this year… Maybe they want that…

Lol, well, I was originally called, but then was an alternate. I was 14th place myself, and the contestants they chose went down to 25th, so… I guess they chose people up to 6 places below you too… Maybe it would have helped if I was a bit higher… But then, Daniel F auditioned, and although he went on to Finals he didn't get called at all… sigh I guess we'll never know. xP Lol! sends hugs We can mourn together. :( xP

Rachel, remember the song I told you I was working on? That's exactly the theme of the song. =)
Matthew Minica
At least they showed enough sense not to invite any of the top three Finalists. =P
Hannah*
Can someone post a list of who made it? Or is that against the rules?
2 Corinthians 5:17

NOOOOO. That's totally not true. Mr Upton told my dad and I, that your family has been irreplaceable in helping their staff. =)
Matthew Minica
Well it's kind of sad then that the HQ staff didn't have much part in choosing (as far as I know)… :\ xP
Matthew Minica
Not sure if we can or not - maybe we'll ask.

Scores have not been released but I've talked to a few of them who told me how their orals went.

Anna, I'm sorry you didn't make it :( hug At least next year you have another chance =) And- I really can't imagine you with pink hair. xP Please don't do that. xP xD
Did your little brothers make it?
