Meet The Competition

Hello and welcome my fellow losers! This blog has been created for us all to contribute to. Record your trials, your triumphs, and your struggles. Give someone a pick-me-up or some advice. Upload pictures or video journals. Friendly badgering is encouraged!

This blog is public. Your friends and family can read it freely, however, only the 18 contestants are allowed to contribute to it.

Are you ready to meet your competitors? Ready or not, here they are...

Note: I've created Mii's for everyone. I didn't spend too much time on the details and did it completely from the memory I have of how you look plus if you have a Wii, you know there isn't many options to go with. We can tweek your Mii on our first visit if you really want to. Oh ya, never mind the "Quit" on the photo...We're not Quitters, we're Winners...or Losers depending on how you look at it.
