I'm gutted at Billie leaving but yasssss still at her avoiding the bottom 5 and beating some of the heavy hitters so I'll take that <3

I think it was Rush who guessed our plans correctly in the play-off thread haha. We thought Lovely was gonna be enough to sneak us through in a single elimination so we were gonna send Bury A Friend next round as it was a double and You Should See Me In A Crown after that. If YSSMIAC made it through, I think we would've just chosen our fave Billie song cos anything else would've def gone out laugh.gif

Sad to see Lovely be the song that puts Billie out but I think she was going sooner or later anyway, Bury A Friend probably would have been the only other song that had a chance of going through after that.

Yep, that was me! Can't fault the strategy; you did well to survive 3 times without even using 'bury a friend' yet.

If you'd gotten to the point where anything would definitely lose, imo you should've gone out with a bang and picked '!!!!!!!' kink.gif

Being a massive nerd I’ve decided to create a points system depending on the placing of each artist each round and thus far Britney is leading the way

Holler managing to survive though 😐 if they had a couple more hits I'd have pegged them to have won this thing after seeing that get through. 😱😱

So that leaves Calvin as the lone “new” forum in the game. Y’all just don’t think the others have that much appeal.

Can you not???

K-Pop - I don't know what happened there, I'd have assumed BLACKPINK were big enough to get past the first round.

RuPaul - is a TV Show more than it's known for it's acts songs

Billie - literally had one realistic track left (before going into album tracks/deep cuts) due to not being around for too long yet.

Paramore - They outperformed many peoples expectations I assume? They're against A LOT of big Pop Buzzjack faves. Managed to out do Rihanna and Ariana.

Calvin - doesn't look like he's gonna be leaving anytime soon. His fanbase is strong and has plenty of hits left to get him through each round!

I agree in all honesty. I think K-Pop should have done better though if I'm being honest, there's a big fan base on K-Pop, I just don't think it was the strongest song to send 'Boy With Love' probably would have qualified and K Pop will only continue growing in the UK.

Billie only had one more song left and for a new artist, she's done incredibly well and I'm sure if this takes place again then she could be a top 10 contender but for a new artist she's over performed.

I feel like Paramore could have lasted longer though, 'The Only Exception', 'Misery Business' are popular and 'Still Into You' would have came top 3 in almost any poll.
