Update On Group Fic

Hey everybody, as I said, I'm going to wait until the end of the weekend (some time tomorrow night) for more people to submit ideas for the fic, and then I'm going to make a poll for you to vote in. I think it will be a yes/no sort of thing for each of the possible plots, so you can choose your few favorites (not all of them, obviously). The one with the most votes will be the main plot, while the net few in line should be incorporated into some extent. Alternately, I may have you vote on one of a few options for main plot, and a few of the others for subplots.

To let you think about it in advance, these are the plot concepts so far (Kat is using her idea with Kara for her own fic):

Main plot concepts:
- Kat #1: "some sort of serious accident during the show's run that leaves either of Benjelle's life in the balance, forcing the other to evaluate how he/she really feels"
- Kat #2: "Donyelle gets injured somehow and gets amnesia."
- Moose: (The rough draft of the first chapter to this one was posted earlier) "The abhorridly cutting and rascist words of a highly religious woman haunt Donyelle's dreams, causing her to reevaluate her relationship with Benji. Feeling there was truth behind what the stranger had said, she found herself running back to Tahir's arms. Their relationship is an abusive one. As the tour progresses, Benji notices her distant behavior, and quickly recognizes the signs after Donyelle is reunited with Tahir at the LA show. Can he convince her of his love before it's too late?"
- Phoenix: "3 years after sytycd, Donyelle runs into Benji at a night club"
- Ray: "they go their separate ways after the tour, B goes to NYC to be on broadwayyyy (maybe with Heidi) and D goes to NYC to pursue hip hop/jazz. theyve lost all contact with each other until they audition for the same company and both make it.back to rehearsing/traveling together, and old feelings are brought back to the surface..."
- Jonesy: "I thought it would be funny if like ... while on tour donyelle breaks up w/ tahir and it comes up that benji's in love w/ her ... duh. but ever since the samba, dmitry can't stop thinking of her either, despite natalie lol."

Ideas that have been specifically laid out as secondary plot concepts:
- Candice #1: "Cat is pregnant and the dancers are all atwitter planning a baby shower. It's cutesy but would work...and it could be funny when the guys get involved."
- Candice #2: "Nigel is trying to recruit some of the dances for a new Fox reality show 'So You Think You're a Celebrity Idol?'--a cross between SYTYCD, Celebrity Duets, and American Idol. This could also work as a full-fledged fic by itself."
- Candice #3: "if we are going to do an amnesia plotline, I think it would be hilarious for Dmitry to be the one with amnesia...we could switch his accent, make him think he's from Texas, etc. Sooo many funny possibilities, but it could also be serious at times." (<--- Moose LOVES this one, by the way : D)

PLEASE submit any other ideas you have to this post by tomorrow afternoon if you would like them to be considered. Small secondary plotlines can be added later on without necessarily being voted on, but the main plotline should be decided through that poll.

Please let me know if I'm leaving you off this list (I'm doing this from memory), or if you'd like to be added. List of authors: Taylor, Thallie, Seosy, Silas, Schnitzel, Ora, Candice, Ray, Moni, Phoenix, Kat (I_love_Benyelle, not the other Kat), and Moose (me).
