Donald Trump presents… WOWAY Apprentice: Game Play Thread

[TMBJon]

CHALLENGE #2: The Obligatory Parody Challenge
For this challenge, you will write the lyrics to a song parody that you think could be Weird Al’s next “big hit”. You must submit the full song lyrics as a PM to TMBDon no later than 10pm Eastern on Tuesday, September 1, 2015.

The subject of your song parody must have been released after Mandatory Fun [July 15, 2014]. Dates listed on the song’s Wikipedia page will serve as the official release date for this challenge.

The two songs will then be presented to guest judge, Grant Baciocco, who will not know which team wrote each parody. Grant will judge the lyrics based on the following criteria: how well the new song matches the original flow/structure, how funny the new lyrics/concept are, whether the song is something Weird Al would consider for his next big single, and how surprising/original your idea is.

Grant will then inform Mr. Trump of his decision, which is Mr. Baciocco’s subjective choice to make and will be binding in determining the winner and loser for this challenge. Soon after this decision is reached, the results will be announced at the Boardroom.

Remember: BullMoose cannot be fired this round, as his team won the previous challenge while he was Project Manager.

Thank you, Michael. What a great attorney. Really!


Okay, contestants, I want to know who the Project Manager will be within 24 hours of this post. It should be your first decision as a team.
You cannot be a Project Manager twice in a row, and it’s encouraged that everyone has a chance to be Project Manager before someone repeats.

I shall be the PM for Team Pobeda for the second task.

[Well, Well, Well]

I will be the PM for Team Groovy.

[TMBJon]

Wow, okay! Two very intriguing choices for Project Manager...
Well, you know the rules. You know what to do. We’ll see what you come up with.
As you know, someone will be fired.

Good luck!

A representative from each team just stopped by my office here at Trump Tower with a copy of their new parodies. As you can see from this photo, I've printed them out and am reviewing the lyrics now.
Without giving away too much, I can tell you that both teams successfully completed this challenge (unlike the pathetic Jungle Cruise Guides team in WOWAY Survivor All-Stars a few years ago).

I have officially sent both songs over to our guest judge, Grant Baciocco, who will begin his review of the songs imminently. As is tradition, white smoke will billow out of his chimney as soon as he has reached a decision.

An announcement regarding the timing of the Boardroom will come shortly; the show's producers are aiming for tomorrow evening.
Stay tuned...

It's official: The Boardroom will be held today, Wednesday, September 2, at 7:00pm Eastern Time, here in Trump Tower.
Contestants should all be present, especially Project Managers.

Thank you, and see you then.
Remember, someone will be fired.

[TMBJon]

Hi folks, the Boardroom will begin momentarily. Mr. Trump is just finishing up a round of golf now, and then he will be joining us.
