Top Affiliate Challenge Finds its Voice

Episodes 5-9 of the Top Affiliate Challenge are now online. Despite the bumps in the road we have all endured to get where we are at, I am really happy with the way things are shaping up for the show.

Over the past few days I have watched some extremely talented people accomplish incredible things both as teams and as individuals. I have seen moments of brilliance both on a moral and ethical level as well as a technical level.

We had to eliminate someone today and the contestant and I both got a little misty eyed in the confessional. Not because of the elimination its self but because of the impact that one contestant was able to make on the lives of those he worked with. I have seen some truly amazing stuff over the past week and a half.

As we press into the final days of the competition its is shaping up to be a real horse race. In talking with the eliminated contestants they are all walking away winners in what they have learned and the relationships they have built.

Heck, Collin De Ruyck is already planning a road trip from Canada next summer for a reunion!

What ever anyone else says about what has happened her in this hotel in Nebraska, those who were here know what an experience it has been. And those who are watching online have some major surprises in store with today’s episode.
