Qorey Posted July 30, 2022 Author Share Posted July 30, 2022 I guess we can start now with these four rankers: https://idolforums.com/profile/149935-rdhaley96/ https://idolforums.com/profile/93571-steven_/ https://idolforums.com/profile/92425-diana/ https://idolforums.com/profile/163511-froglenzen/ If anybody else wishes to join, they can do so at the beginning of the next round. You will be captains in the following order (as chosen by a randomizer) Diana Froglenzen rdhaley96 Steven Diana, you are the first captain, and must nominate 52 artists from the list below, for elimination: 21 Savage5 Seconds Of SummerAdeleAriana GrandeB.o.BBeyonceBig SeanBillie EilishBlake SheltonBon JoviBritney SpearsBruce SpringsteenBruno MarsCalvin HarrisCamila CabelloCardi BCarrie UnderwoodChris BrownChris StapletonColdplayDJ KhaledDavid GuettaDemi LovatoDrakeEd SheeranEllie GouldingEminemEric ChurchFetty WapFlo RidaFlorida Georgia Linefun.FutureHalseyImagine DragonsJ.

Qorey Posted July 30, 2022 Author Share Posted July 30, 2022 Once Diana has made her choices, the other three rankers must each choose 14 of those artists to save. The saves can be done all at once, or a few at a time. The first 14 artists saved are each worth 4 points to the ranker who saves them. The second 14 artists saved are each worth 3 points to the ranker who saves them. The third 14 artists saved are each worth 2 points to the ranker who saves them. The captain will not save any artists, but will receive 14 points nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qorey Posted July 31, 2022 Author Share Posted July 31, 2022 We have reached the bottom ten: 21 Savage Chris BrownDJ KhaledFetty WapMeek MillMigosTravis ScottTrey SongzWiz KhalifaXXXTENTACION Here's what happens now. You each have an allotted number of points which you can distribute as you see fit among the above choices. You can use your points positively to save an artist, or negatively to hurt them. Since announcing your votes publicly might affect how other people choose to spend their points, this will have to be done by private message. Steven has 56 points Froglenzen has 42 points rdhaley96 has 28 points Diana has 14 points You may now make your decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdhaley96 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I'm equally indifferent to all of their music, so I've looked up all of their controversies to figure out how to divvy my points, and this is a... lovely group of people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_ Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Do we have to use any points? Could we save them for a future round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdhaley96 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 7 minutes ago, *Diana said: I don't get the points thing at all I think you just take the points you have (14 in your case) and divide them up among the artists left, either choosing to add to them or take them away. @Qorey can correct me if I'm mistaken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qorey Posted July 31, 2022 Author Share Posted July 31, 2022 You have 14 points. Each point can be counted towards either saving an artist or hurting them. So, if Rihanna was in the bottom ten, and you really like her, you could use all 14 points to save her: Rihanna +14 If there is someone you can't stand, you could use all your points against them: Zac Brown Band -14 You could do half and half: Rihanna +7 Zac Brown Band -7 You can distribute them any way you want, as long as you use exactly 14: Rihanna +6 Britney Spears +3 Jason Aldean +2 Zac Brown Band -3 When everybody's points are summed together, the artists with the lowest score will be eliminated. Remember to send the points by private message only, so no one gets a sneak peek. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Diana Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 then I'll do write ups on the ones cut right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qorey Posted July 31, 2022 Author Share Posted July 31, 2022 I wasn't planning to require writeups, but it would be a nice bonus, I guess. But I want to make sure they are announced in the proper order: 100 to 96, and we have to wait until all the results are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qorey Posted July 31, 2022 Author Share Posted July 31, 2022 OK, here is my official policy on writeups: When you are sending your PMs with your votes, it will be helpful, but not necessary to add a few lines about the reasons behind your choices. Then when the votes are tallied, we will have a sort of "group writeup" with everyone's opinions included. My plan is to officially announce the eliminated artists in reverse order, along with the points they received from each ranker, and any comments they made. This will make an official writeup kind of redundant, but feel free to have your say after the fact. If you really want to make the official announcement yourself, I can PM you the information with the votes, and you can make it all fancy with a full paragraph, but just let me know beforehand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qorey Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) #100 Chris Brown Steven (-56/56) I’ll do minus all my points against Chris Brown. Derek (-12/42) No comment Rdhaley96 (-8/28) For domestic violence Diana (-7/14) I think this should be obvious to why I am voting the way I am, it makes me sick to think of all of his supporters. Corey (no vote) I don't follow any of the stuff in the news about Chris Brown, and would have voted strictly based on his music. Out of all the artists in the bottom ten, there are only two songs I like by any of them, and one of them is "Don't Wake Me Up" by Chris Brown. So I would have given him significant points to stay (but it probably wouldn't have been enough).

Qorey Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) #99 Travis Scott Derek (-10/42) Pure trash Rdhaley96 (-8/28) For Astroworld. Diana (-7/14) I have no respect for him at all and all my love and prayers go to the victims. Corey (no vote) I vaguely remember his music from a long time ago, but it wasn't any good. I've never heard anything bad about him until this rankdown. I guess he's not as newsworthy as Chris Brown.
