Last week for these picks!

Results from last week - a new leader!

stardiver - 30 points
Jaime - 29 points
Janine - 29 points
Moryssa - 27 points

Finally, who's going to get thisclose to the top 2 and not make it? Will it be super predictable, or will something really stupid happen?

I vote they hire Harry Connick Jr. to replace Simon. It's one of the few ways I'll be convinced to watch next season.

Points!

Jaime - 28 points
Moryssa - 25 points
stardiver - 25 points
Janine - 24 points

This week is movie week, with a whole shitload of really awful songs on the potential playlist. But I'm going to put my money on Lee singing "Eye of the Tiger". And maybe Mike doing "I Will Always Love You", since there's no girl left who will bring the Whitney.

Anyway! For week 12 (air dates 5/11, 5/12), comment below with:

Sorry for being late again! Would you believe I still haven't watched last week's performances? That's how excited I am about Shania Twain, I guess. Anyway, new point totals!

Jaime: 27 points
Moryssa: 23 points
stardiver: 23 points
Janine: 19 points

I may be winning right now, but I'm also the only person with only three top 5 picks left. (Why didn't I put Lee in there? Why??)

Okay, this week is Frank Sinatra week, which I am way more excited about! (Harry Connick Jr.! Eeee!) So, for week 11 (air dates 5/4, 5/5), comment with:

Quickly, before I leave town!

Point totals:

Stardiver - 23 points
Moryssa - 22 points
Janine - 19 points

Okay, everyone's favorite whipping boy is gone. Who're you gonna pick now? :) Theme is ... Shania Twain songs? Janine and I would like to vote for Lee singing "Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under", just for sheer LOLs. :D For week 10 (air dates 4/27, 4/28), comment with:

Back from my internet hiatus with points from last week! They did the eliminations weird, so with the picks everyone made, I gave points for having Andrew or Katie in any position (5 apiece for picking them to leave, 2 points for picking one of them to be in the bottom 2). So, with that, the totals look something like this:

Jaime - 24 points
stardiver - 22 points
Moryssa - 22 points
Janine - 19 points

This week, being "Idol Gives Back" week, has a theme of "inspirational songs." The potential song list on iTunes is truly random. I have no idea how this is going to go, but I actually won't be surprised if they decide not to eliminate anyone this week. They don't like ruining the feel-good vibe of their charity event! But, just in case ... for week 9 (air dates 4/20, 4/21), comment with:

If they do, in fact, decide to skip eliminations, I'll give points for picking the bottom 2 correctly.

It's an easy scoring week - nobody got any points, because apparently people who vote for AI are really, really weird.

So, two eliminations this week! I don't know how it's going to work, so I'm making it up as I go along. Point totals this week are as follows:

Pick both eliminated contestants correctly: 10 points
Pick one eliminated contestant correctly: 5 points

I suspect they'll announce the eliminations in two separate pairs, but I'm not sure. So, let's also guess two contestants that will be in a danger pair and survive - if that's the way it works, we'll award the below points, but if it isn't, we'll just ignore this second point category. Make sense? So, aside from the above:

Pick both "safe" contestants: 4 points
Pick one "safe" contestant: 2 points

Okay. New rules out of the way. For week 8 (air dates 4/13, 4/14), comment here with:

Also, just FYI, I'll be offline all next week, back on Sunday. I'll update the points and post the next picks then!

Sorry for putting this up so late! I've been easily distracted ...

Anyway, everybody still playing gets a point - we all thought Tim was going, but lo and behold, we underestimated the voting power of teenage girls/cougars/VTFW. ;) So, point totals this week are:

Moryssa - 15 points
Jaime - 14 points
stardiver - 12 points
Janine - 12 points

Now, it's pick time for this week! For week 7 (air dates 4/6, 4/7) comment here with:

This was an easy week to pick, apparently. :) Everyone who played picked Paige to go, and either picked Tim or Katie as bottom two. So, our point totals are:

Moryssa - 14 points
Jaime - 13 points
stardiver - 11 points
Janine - 11 points
Tommygirl - 6 points
Jadziadragonrider - 5 points

Next week ... well, whatever happens, I suspect Mike's gonna do okay in R&B week. :)

The theme is Teen Idols ... maybe? The internet is not entirely in agreement. But, if it is Teen Idols, then it's going to be an interesting weeks..

Don't forget! You have until tomorrow night to make this week's picks for the bottom two. Also, tomorrow is the last day you can change/enter your top 5!

We're back to just shooting in the dark with these weekly picks, aren't we?

Here we go ... keep in mind, it's Rolling Stones theme week.

Well, that was interesting, wasn't it?

Everyone gets a point for Todrick this week; only one person managed 2 points. :) So, the to-date standings are as follows:

Tommygirl - 6 points
stardiver - 5 points
Janine - 4 points
Moryssa - 2 points
Jaime - 1 point

... and now, the real competition starts! From now on, you pick who you think will be the two singers - and you must designate which one will be kicked off and which will be safe. Points are:

Accurately pick the contestant kicked off: 5 points
Accurately pick safe contestant from bottom 2: 2 points
Pick either bottom 2 contestant in the wrong spot: 1 point

I'll put up next week's post in a few minutes. But, this would also be the time to change your top 5 picks if you want! After next Monday, picks are locked for good.

... if you'll excuse me, I have to go figure out what the heck to do with my own picks.

I think everyone playing along is in the Eastern or Central time zone, but just in case there might be someone out there reading my DW account on the west coast, I'll cut this week's point totals!

who earned points this week? )

One more week of 4 eliminations before we really get down to business! Has your opinion on the top 5 changed at all?
simon respects your opinion
I'm heading out, but if anyone feels like commenting on the girls, here's where to do it!
simon respects your opinion
... okay, y'all, cross your fingers that this week is better than last week.

Discussion post for the girls. (Or maybe the guys? Rumors are flying on the internet, but take that for what it's worth.) Okay, so it is the guys tonight! Go! :)
