Tundra a big congratulations on the unanimous #1, and Drago congratulations on moving up into the top 5.  Sparks, most of the time when someone is in the bottom 2 they just wind up there next week, but next week I will make sure that you are in the top 3.

tundra < 333

and very close for me :o phew, hoping next week will be less stressful!

and im sorry cancan :((

LOL getting 10th for the 3rd time in a row. I knew I would be out, I sucked especially when I got the songs I really wanted to sing stolen away.

and good luck carlisle and spark :((

Wait I just realized something. I mean it doesn't apply since he was so great, but...doesn't Mat have an advantage because all the judges rank 7 people (including Mat) while Mat's mentor ranks 9. Not like it changes anything, but that was somewhat unclear to me. LOL I just wasn't sure. But I'm out fair and square, and I definitely had the weakest performance.

LOL after I read the comments I was like oh all but 1 enjoyed it, so I'll be good. *checks scores* *is out* OHHHH XD

lmao cancan i was just talking to tolis about it.

... you just realized that's the case now? It's been like that for every x-factor season.

Well I kind of don't understand the ranking system tbh, I know it doesn't really affect us as contestants (OK, maybe it does, as it seems that TheGoodMan, Mat's mentor was the one who gave me last as it appeared he was the one who liked it the least, and one ranking was the difference between me being in and out, so I would just like to understand how this works) but it could be explained. :P

The judges rank everyone that isn't on their team. What more needs to be explained?

And I'm not spoiling the entire ranking from everyone (until the end of the season as usual), but Mat's mentor didn't rank you last.

Sorry I found out it was not Mat, but dudetb. But still, I want to have the points system explained, because as I said people are ranking mat out of 7, and mat's mentor is ranking people out of 9.

That is exactly what "the judges rank everyone that isn't on their team" means.

And next week the guest judges will be ranking everyone out of 8. Well.. that just spoiled this week's twist.

crap
