A BAKER'S DOZEN OF SUPER-SIZED CHEEZ-ITS v.1.03
CONTEST #1: Last Man Standing
Pick the winner of Season 8 American Idol.
By Tuesday at 8:00PM EST, March 17, 2009, enter your choice of 2 contestants that will make the final 2 and the winner in the comments section below. Voting will close at the beginning of Tuesday, March 17th's performance episode.
The Rules Have Been Updated II.
Many a good contestant went down last night including Alexis Grace. Since it wasn't yet Top 10 we are giving everyone a reprieve. If you lost last night, you may select a second winner up until Top 7 week but for the reduced points of that week. This is a one time do over, like the judges save, so choose sagely.
The Rules have Been Updated. Please Read!
You may change your vote until the above date and time. Please enter a new comment if you change your choice (so we can find it:) ).
We've updated the rules to accommodate people joining the contest late...
If you enter your choices for the winner and runner-up prior to the time the Top 11 begin singing (the original deadline) you will be eligible for 5 points and 4 points if you are correct. If you choose to wait to make your selections the available points will be reduced by 1 point for each week thereafter until Top 7.
All selections are due prior to 8:00pm est on the date in question. So the deadlines and the available points are:
March 17, Top 11-Winner=5 points, Runner-up=4 points
March 24, Top 10- Winner=4 points, Runner-up=3 points
March 31, Top 9- Winner=3 points, Runner-up=2 points
April 7, Top 8-Winner=2 points, Runner-up=1 point
April 14, Top 7-Winner=1 point, Runner-up= 0 points
Also, until you choose the winner and runner up you are not eligible for bottom three bonus points or going home points.
Contestants are:
Kris Allen
Megan Corkrey
Anoop Desai
Matt Girard
Danny Gokey
Allison Iraheta
Adam Lambert
Lil Round
Scott MacIntyre
----------
Michael Sarver
Alexis Grace
Jorge Nunes
Jasmine Murray
May the most "worthy" contestant win!

Thanks for the second chance...
I went out on a limb with my first vote with Alexis as my original winner...obviously that didn't work out too well for me, or her. So my vote is now: Top 2- Danny and Adam; WInner- Adam
Second Chances
Unfortunately, the judges didn't save my first guess (Alexis) last night, but THANK YOU to the "brain trust" (TfM and Janus) for saving me and others for at least one more week. Hopefully I have more success with my second chance.
Runner-up: Matt
Winner: Danny

I think the winner will be Adam Lambert. I love him so that's cool with me. I think he is absolutely phenomenal and he definitely deserves to win. He easily has the best voice out of all them!!!!

I really like Allison but her youth and what comes out of her mouth when she's not singing, I think, will do her in.
