Read the Post in the main Apprentice Thread First!
Welcome to the official Team Impossible Cash thread! From here on out, the six of you will be one team. Okay, Cheesey? Team Star Dust Coin doesn't exist anymore. You're all one big, happy team of six people that are all trying to get rid of each other. Sound like fun? Good. Congratulations on making it this far, by the way. I'm finally half way to having my very own mind slave! I can't wait to make the winner legally change their name to 'Steve' for the occasion. Oh, but The N00b brought up a good point... if Josiah gets the position, I'm sunk. I can't boss him around and get away with it. My dreams of becoming like Cross Marian would be ruined! Then again, in the recent D. Gray Man chapter, Cross was... or at least he certainly looked... well, dead. Oh, there's a spoiler there, people. Watch out. I was going to go for more of a Marik thing anyway, hence the name change to Steve.
Well, anyway, I hope you guys have been enjoying the competition so far. I know I have. I live for watching you guys suffer. Okay, well not really, but it makes for a good joke. Remember, jokes are important for IPA Apprentices. When you make a mistake but don't want to admit to it, cracking a joke is a quick, easy way to solve the problem. Maybe I'll make the next challenge Stand Up Comedy, except that this is the Internet so I'd have no idea if you actually stood up or not. We'll see. Yeah... you guys all know what "malapropism" means, right? If not, look it up. On that note, I may as well give you a vocabulary lesson while I'm here. This is where AP English pays off (Silver got a four out of five on the exam, by the way, of which he is very proud). "Some may see Silver as a macabre megalomaniac. This is not unfounded. His most egregious malfeasance, however, is his tendency to be tendentious and torpid. Silver has big problems with torpidity."
Final socres:
Saber - 140
Cheesey - 30
Gar - 50
Josiah - 55
Terra - 125
The N00b - 30
Old version (Leaving it here in case you guys need a laugh... or a cry):

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*
