I wouldn't be surprised if he changed his mind. I also wouldn't be surprised if this was the last round of intended sabotage, deserved mockery, and great caricatures.

I'll miss the caricatures. And some of the mockery.

There's even going to be days when I miss the sabotage.

I have voted with them. I have voted against them. And so it goes.

That's too bad. Even when I don't watch the show I still check in there for the laughs.

Aw....VFTW was half the fun!

Zoanette Johnson and Charlie Askew. (Yes, caricatures are up.) They feel they've seen enough of them in the pre-voting rounds to have confidence in their Entertainingly Bad abilities. In particular, they are in love with Zoanette, who is on track to become one of their all-time favorites before the first vote is ignored: she was their female pick from pretty much the first second of her initial audition.

Keep in mind: with the diminished ratings/voting pool, the Worsters make up a larger percentage of the casting viewership than usual -- possibly more than ever before. Given their ability to work the system, this may be the season where they can really keep their chosen ones afloat for longer than the Agenda would believe possible. (Again, assuming anyone's counting.) Their final season might be the one where they really and truly piss people off -- if there's anyone left to irritate.

As their own management has noted, it's hard to keep on sabotaging the show when the show is doing such a fantastic job of that all by itself.

While they loved her performance, they have concerns. A number of them swore they saw the judges reading from notes/script -- especially Nikki, who switched from pimping to anger at the drop of a line. They feel she got a nasty reminder of who signs that paycheck, along with marching orders and five names for praising to the skies. And meanwhile, their own darling got the death slot followed by a fifteen-rope tie to the gates of the Panama Canal, plus there are suspicions that the back room was messing with the sound. The question of 'Is anyone counting these votes?' has been asked. It will be asked a lot more by Thursday.

Oh, and overall, they felt Angela (TCO) has some degree of talent, but is inherently boring and is working the evangelical market a little too hard. The other eight (outside of the Philippines vote lure) are cannon fodder. I have to take their word for it. I didn't watch so much as a single second.

You know. Tracking Coolio's reality show count is just so much more important.

Well, nothing can hypocrite like a Worster: after days of laughing fits following Rachel Crow's emotional breakdown, they're furious at Idol for pushing Charlie to the point of tears. Half of them seem convinced his first goal on arriving backstage was to find the nearest sharp object. He was cast to be mocked, he was mocked, and he wasn't ready for it. The further irony is that they felt he actually rendered his song well -- it's an obscure Genesis effort and the screaming is a real part of the original performance. Apparently the judges didn't know that. Or much of anything else. They have faint hope for his advancement if the sympathy votes come pouring in, but -- they're angry. It's weird to see.

(The difference: Charlie's theirs. Possessive bunch.)

Nigel tweeted that he's happy with the Top Five females, so they're figuring Zoanette's out, especially after they kept getting suspicious busy signals on her line all night. In revenge, they're investigating his connections to Scientology.

It will not be a happy final year.

It could have been Curtis for the combination of his singing, jacket, and suddenly-leaked arrest record. Or they might have chosen Paul to give them a real shot at the first pillar-to-post candidate. But -- Lazaro.

I'm pretty sure Nigel's dream is to get a male out first tonight. Stay tuned. Or, for this season, not.

So with thirty-nine million votes cast, Lazaro was in fourth place. But with twenty-six million, he's in seventh.

...let's try that again.

As the regular votership dwindles, the Worsters are becoming an ever-increasing percentage of the grand total. We know they have a couple of million votes to play with when the site really mobilizes. Right now, that would be a thirteenth of The Seacrest Hastily-Dropped Total. Unless Lazaro has tumbled to the point where they're the only people calling in for him, that ranking makes no sense.

Suspicious...

Is there something missing here? I haven't watched A I in the last 2 years, but seems like some thresds are missing.
Like the PTTE game?

OK, yes, I guess I've been living under a rock...

I don't think too many people are watching the show anymore!

I happen to be checking threads and saw you post.
