Hey guys and thanks for an even more amazing turnout in Round 2 <3 Glad this has seemed to have gone done fab *.*

It's a competition between the AF's where a song is selected and pitted against the other AF's every round. Each round is multiple choice and anyone can vote. Most rounds will have a play-off between the bottom 2 but some rounds will be a double elimination. The main round will last 2 days and the play-off will last 1 day. Vote for your favourite songs each round based on how many it says to vote for. And let's see who comes out on top *.*

This round is the play-off. Please vote for your favourite song out of the two remaining. The song with the highest votes here will go through. You have until 23:59pm TODAY to vote so make sure you get your votes in quickly! All the songs are posted below so please listen to all of them <3

Unfortunately it's the end for RuPaul, who quite honestly did amazing to come as high as 22nd but has been eliminated from AF Idol

The full results are in post 2 -> check them out there and feel free to update your artist forums with the latest stats!

AF Mods, check the post below for details on Round 2.

RESULTS:
24th. Robbie Williams & Take That
23rd. K-Pop
22. RuPaul

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Announcement 1:
COLLABORATIONS:
- if only one of the two artists have an artist forum, then you can send it. (So for example Taylor can send Both Of Us - tho we never would cos it's shit x - and Dua Lipa can send Electricity etc)
- However we have decided to be pretty ruthless & for collabs where both artists have their own artist forum, it's going to be first come first serve! It's gonna add some more intra-competitiveness and tactics as y'all try and use the collab before the other AF gets there first! If you both confirm the same song the same round, whoever confirmed 1st gets to keep it.
(AF Mods have been made aware about the above already)

Announcement 2:
ROUND 3 will be a TRIPLE ELIMINATION. ohmy.gif This will very likely be the only triple elimination but time to heat up the competition a bit more!

Credit must now be given to the Madonna forum because finishing really close to the bottom but not actually getting eliminated with a risky choice is arguably the best outcome, keeping more heavy hitters and using up a song that might have no chance in later rounds.

Voting One Direction here, Story Of My Life is one of my favourite singles of theirs.

Thanks! That was our thinking, although it was a little too close for comfort for our liking! laugh.gif

Yeah, Kiss and Make Up was too close for comfort for us too. Ideally you want songs that will place in the middle.

I prefer 'Ruin My Life', though credit to 'Story Of My Life' for being one of my least favourite singles of theirs at the time, but sounding really nice now.

Glad 'Bounce' narrowly survived the bottom 2!

Tbh there's not really any reason for any of the AFs that finished Top 10 to play things differently than they have already as, in theory, they would be safe from elimination whether it was a double or triple. Unless the AFs that finished further down all send some big hitters of course... Exciting!

‘Ruin My Life’ is a real low point in Zara’s discography so 1D win this for me easily!

Rihanna absolutely killing it so far and neither of her choices have been particularly obvious yet ;o

I feared 1D would lose out to Zara which is a shame when 'Story of My Life' is one of their best and 'Ruin My Life' is one of Zara's less good songs.

Voted Ruin My Life!

YESSS at Bounce making it, would be so unjust for Calvin to exit on one of his best sad.gif

Definitely Zara. I like a fair amount of 1D singles but that one is their absolute worst.

Someone gets our tactics! We were thinking of the long game, much like the artist we're representing ~
