"Wild Card Game"
Let's be honest, it has been a pretty lackluster season this year, and probably there will be another singer winner in the end. But that is no reason why we shouldn't have fun, try to have some fun anyway. Let's make it interesting.

At some point we will most likely be subjected to Wild Cards, acts which have previously been eliminated but which the "judges" elect worthy of another chance. Who will they be?

For the purposes of this game we shall consider only those acts which did not advance from the Las Vegas week, either because they showed up and failed, or because for whatever reason they could not show up that week.

You may pick 4 of the following listed acts as prospective Wild Card acts. For each act which actually shows up as a judge's pick Wild Card act, you will receive one point. For each act which actually advances to the semi-finals you will receive an additional point.

Some acts were eliminated in Vegas because they showed up and failed, some acts just didn't show up for whatever reason. This is getting too long to go into further details, the acts you have to select from are as follows:

4Play, Singing Group
Armand & Angelina, Singers
Cindy Chang, Opera Singer
Fantastic Fig & Cat, Close-up magician
Hershae Chocolatae, Drag queen
Jesse the Jack Russell, Dog act

Anyone want to play? It's just for fun really. I'll lock in my picks to get things rolling.

ELEW, rockjazz pianist
Fantastic Fig & Cat (Newton), magician
Leonid the Magnificent, novelty/variety
Olivia Bellafontaine, burlesque dancer

I expect Howie will pick at least one act just because Piers hates it.

Due to an emergency in my family, I have missed a great deal of the acts, also. I had them recorded, but who wants to sit and watch 3 hours of acts and skip through 5 hours of commercials??

Not me, not after a long trip which included multiple hospital visits, loads of stress and too much work to do at home once I got back...

I'll just catch up on the rebound when they show the 3 seconds of fame before the results....

Priorities are priorities, no prob.

Some of these acts were strictly to annoy Piers.

6. "RE: Wild Card Game"
Ok, I’ll play.

First off I eliminated all singers. I don’t watch this show to see singers. Mrs. Frank smiles and patiently endures a weekly diatribe regarding my feelings on that matter.

I glanced at the dancers but feel somewhat the same as with the singers. However I’ve been known to make exceptions.

Comedians historically have a difficult time with the constrained time limit. It’s too hard to build a rapport with the audience. Besides there is a show for them. Uh, well there used to be, I think.

Therefore I choose:

Michael Turco Magician/Illusionist

Halls of Magic Magicians (Starting to see a trend here- Come on, there has to be at least one more magician seeing as the others are all gone now)

Olivia Bellafontaine Burlesque Dancer (An exception to the rule. I couldn’t remember her but a quick glance at YouTube reminded me that I’d like to see more of her. Ok, well after a little more than a quick glance there really isn’t any more of her to see, but you know what I mean. Let’s just say her talents are best appreciated in an uncensored environment).

Leonid the Magnificent Novelty Act – Pretty much by default

7. "Poll"
NBC has a poll running now for which acts should return in the Wild Card show 8/16/11. This poll only includes the 32 acts eliminated from the Top 48, none of the acts listed above, and

(The results of the poll may or may not be one of the factors considered in deciding which contestants to bring back, in Producer's sole discretion.)

http://www.nbc.com/americas-got-talent/contestants/poll/

You can only vote for one act at a time, no idea how many times you're allowed to vote.

Wild Cards will be announced on the 8/10 results show, so if anyone else wants to play this is the last day for it.

It's just for fun, we're all probably going to goose-egg anyway.

11. "Results"
LAST EDITED ON 08-11-11 AT 11:54 AM (EST)

Basically, since only one act named in the first post was picked as a wild card, everyone who picked Shevonne wins!

Since no one picked her, well crud, let's go to the tie-breaker.

The following are the wild card acts this year, your job this game is to pick which ones Piers will buzz next week. Just copy and post the list adding Yes for the ones Piers will buzz next week and No for the ones he won't. Newbies to the game are welcome.

West Springfield Dance Team (Sharon pick)
Landon Swank (Piers pick)
The Kinetic King (Sharon pick)
Summerwind Skippers (Piers pick)
Charles Peachock (Piers pick)
Yellow Designs Stunt Team (Piers pick)
Shevonne Phillidor (Howie pick)
J. Chris Newberg (Howie pick)
Those Funny Little People (Howie pick)
Seth Grabel (Sharon pick)
The Fiddleheads (Howie pick)
Avery and the Calico Hearts (Sharon pick)

12. "RE: Results"
Who picked these people? Geez!

I don’t remember half of these acts so will have to go look before I can make my predictions. But compared to this week, I’m almost tempted to say “All of them!” Piers was on a roll this week.

One question though. Does anyone know if Those Funny Little People actually sing? If they are actually singing I’d give them a modicum of respect. If they are just bouncing around and lip-syncing they get none from me. They are certainly Howie’s pick. And Piers is right. The name is a terrible misnomer. They are not funny, little, or people.

I was just editing that post to include the picks!

Those Funny Little People, I have no idea what the talent is supposed to be, perhaps costume design. I think if they could sing they would just sing. Maybe they're animatrons? It's a waste of time bringing them back.

I may be going out on a limb thinking Piers will buzz one of his own picks, but I don't think he will tolerate any mistakes by anyone.

16. "RE: Results"
I see Piers’ buzzer getting a lot of use this week (again). He will certainly buzz ALL of Howie’s picks, just on principle. I don’t think he appreciated Sharon announcing her Springfield pick on air, so they get buzzed too. And I agree with Dabo, if Yellow Stunt Team makes a mistake (and I think they will) he will buzz them.

So here goes.

Yes - West Springfield Dance Team (Sharon pick)
No - Landon Swank (Piers pick)
Yes - The Kinetic King (Sharon pick) – He’ll buzz him the second he walks on the stage
No - Summerwind Skippers (Piers pick)
No - Charles Peachock (Piers pick)
Yes - Yellow Designs Stunt Team (Piers pick)
Yes - Shevonne Phillidor (Howie pick)
Yes - J. Chris Newberg (Howie pick)
Yes - Those Funny Little People (Howie pick) - Within 15 seconds
Yes - Seth Grabel (Sharon pick)
Yes - The Fiddleheads (Howie pick)
No - Avery and the Calico Hearts (Sharon pick) (He’ll want to but won’t)

19. "Final Results"
First, I would like to apologize for listing incorrect picks above. That's what I get for trusting Wikipedia and not checking back to see if corrrections were made to their AGT6 page. As a result of this fubar I am disqualifying myself from the game, and if I have a problem with that decision I can just go over my head to the ultimate authority of this game and file a complaint with me.

Right then, how did we do. Piers was uncharacteristically forgiving of genuine mistakes tonight, three acts getting a free pass, two of them his own picks. Piers buzzed four acts, everyone (myself included) got three of four correct Yeses.

YAY! Congrats all around!

Going to the next tie-breaker, total of correct Yeses and correct Nos...

01. The Kinetic King. All picked Yes. Incorrect.
02. Those Funny Little People. All picked Yes. Correct.
Untrugby, frankz, taffnic each score 1 point.
03. Avery and the Calico Hearts. Untrugby picked Yes. Correct. frankz and taffnic picked No.
Untrugby scores 1 point.
04. Seth Grabel. Untrugby and frankz picked Yes. taffnic picked No. Correct.
taffnic scores 1 point.
05. Shevonne. All picked Yes. Incorrect.
06. West Springfield Dance Team. Untrugby and taffnic picked No. Correct. frankz picked Yes.
Untrugby and taffnic score 1 point each.
07. J. Chris Newberg. All picked Yes. Correct.
Untrugby, frankz, taffnic each score 1 point.
08. Yellow Designs Stunt Team. Untrugby picked No. Correct. frankz and taffnic picked Yes.
Untrugby scores 1 point.
09. Charles Peachock. All picked No. Correct.
Untrugby, frankz, taffnic each score 1 point.
10. The Fiddleheads. Untrugby picked No. frankz and taffnic picked Yes. Correct.
frankz and taffnic score 1 point each.
11. Summerwind Skippers. All picked No. Correct.
Untrugby, frankz, taffnic each score 1 point.
12. Landon Swank. All picked No. Correct.
Untrugby, frankz, taffnic each score 1 point.

Untrugby and taffnic each have a total of 8 points to tie for the win. frankz has a respectable 6 points (50%) for third.
