Scott Slips under the radar again!
chatterz:
I may have to get on their calling bandwagon. I like the idea of screwing with the numbers. Maybe if they get a really lame winner, they'll start limiting the number of calls from a single phone. Nah, they don't care. They just like saying, "24 million of you voted!" Which is actually a lie, but it makes them feel good.
I have voted for Constantine in other weeks because he's really the only one I'd fork out money to see in concert. Not that he's the best, but he puts on a good show. Of course, I did not spend hours and hours voting. And he really massacred Nickelback's song last night, so I refused to dial at all last night. OMG, it's probably my fault he's out. I'll carry the guilt to my grave.
PapaBear:
I'm with you on this one Puddin. I was soooooo upset last night. Constantine was not even my favorite, but it is just so unfair. Other than this week, he had shown such incredible improvement over the first few weeks that he truly deserved to be there. This movement to vote for the worst could very quickly ruin this show. It is making me not want to watch anymore. If Scott ends up going to the end and this vote for the worst movement continues, AI will lose me as a viewer. I can't imagine I would be the only one.

Thanks for the site Angel. I had no idea that a site like this existed.
I remember when this was an issue in the first seasons. People would have these mass dialers in their computer, where it just dialed, and dialed for the person they wanted to vote for. AI said that there are SOO many votes that it doesn't make any difference what these people vote for, but I think with sites like this, it is coming true that a mass can really keep the worst in.
Almost makes me want to watch now, just to see if Scott stays in!!! LOL

That site is funny! Here are some interesting tid-bits from thier site:
The producers have been pimping Carrie and the rockers to win this show since the beginning. If you're an Anthony or Vonzell fan, I hate to break it to you, but they won't win. Why? Because the producers don't want them to. They'll be gone in the next few weeks, and you'll be sad. Why not just Vote for the Worst?
This show is not about finding the next big superstar. Your favorite contestant probably won't win, and will probably get a record contract anyway if they're good enough. Besides, TV is supposed to be about the entertainment value, and what's more entertaining than a fish out of water outlasting the big fish and sharks? The producers wanted Scott in the top group so he could fail, but let's give them the monster that they've created. This pledge is to keep Scott in the competition by voting for him for the entire time alotted every week. Even if you live outside of America, tell people about the pledge and spread the word. If you choose, vote along with us and help keep Scott in the competition. If one terrible day Scott is voted out, VFTW will carry on and pick someone new. But let's not think about that just yet.
Why bother voting for someone talented when this show can be so much more fun to watch? Scott Savol outlasting Carrie Underwood or Bo Bice? Now that's good TV! Browse this website for material to help us spread the pledge to all of your friends.
Thanks to everyone and enjoy the site.

I know..I feel the same way..sad fact remains people have been digging this kind of trend in TV for quite some time now..even I watch sometimes. Case in point 'The Simple Life' that Hilton & Richie Show in its 3rd season already..(yes I admit it) I watch from time to time. I remember the first time I saw it I thought..c'mon this is beyond stupid stupid..I kept flicking over to it for some reason. This season is a tad better...but Ii have to wonder why the hell I watch sometimes. I mean I can read afterall..shouldn't a decent book take precidence? :/
If this AI thing got too too serious and someone like Scott won..I'd turn it of..if it would make a difference. And maybe that's the problem..it probably wouldn't. Like Simon said last night.."if he's getting 7 to 8 million votes he desrves to be here then."
I'd agree with that..except I know places like the ones boosting 'vote for worse singer' exist. So it's not for the reason he reasons'..
Mayeb we need to send Simon these links too... /]*
