A shock voting scandal has occurred that all the songs out so far have moved themselves up a place. They have all been pushed down a position and this will not be changed unless two tasks are completed

TASK 1: However one of these 10 songs above will be re-instated. Vote for your favourite in the poll with these 10 songs in. The top 2 at the end of part 1 will face each other in the next round to decide which one is back in the competition. When 1 song is re-instated, the rest of the songs will be moved back up a place. Also credit to *Tim for thinking of this idea

TASK 2: Of the 8 remaining songs, only 6 songs will face round 9. 2 songs have automatically made it through to round 10. The two songs who have finished number 1 the most times are All Fired Up and Up. Those 2 songs are automatically through. In part 1 of this round, the 6 songs have been split up into 3 groups. The first tie is Disco Love v Higher, the second tie is What About Us v Ego and the third tie is Not Giving Up v Work [decided by most weeks at 1]. Please vote for your least favourite in these 3 ties. The 3 that have got the most results by probably Saturday will go into part 2 in a poll of 3- the song with the most votes in this round will be evicted.
Weeks at 1 on Least Favourite Saturdays Song: All Fired Up [8], Up [6], Disco Love [5], Higher [4- best scorer on percentages], What About Us [4], Ego [4- weakest scorer on percentages], Not Giving Up [3] and Work [1]

Please tell me if this isn't clear enough. The deadline for part 1 will be around midday on Saturday
Please Vote

Posted by: jsilv 14th August 2014, 11:10 PM

im scared ego is gonna be out

Posted by: Martyn 14th August 2014, 11:25 PM

What is this voting scandal thing. Confused.com

Posted by: Ultraviolence 14th August 2014, 11:36 PM

Some fake thing I made up so I could move every song down a place until one gets reinstated

Posted by: Steve D 15th August 2014, 05:06 AM

Why does a song need to be moved down a place for that to happen?

Posted by: SB. 15th August 2014, 06:18 AM

Ego is currently infront of What About Us, I wouldn't worry.



It is a bit odd how we're voting one back in, even as much as I love Notorious

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 06:33 AM

Higher, What About Us and Work to go.

Notorious to come back into my life.

Posted by: Cameron 15th August 2014, 07:42 AM

Putting Disco Love up against Higher is criminal.

Posted by: SB. 15th August 2014, 07:45 AM

Until the Issue fans login and ruin it



Agreed, especially as both are quite liked - especially Totto and Higher

EDIT: Can someone please explain where on earth All Fired Up is? It hasn't gone out I don't think and it wasn't an option...



Second EDIT: Don't worry, found the whole Up/All Fired Up thing.

Third (and hopefully final edit): I'm really not functioning with how this game is working in the slightest Really this rate is to find out our least favourites so:

a) Voting a favourite back in doesn't make sense to me because if it's been voted out as a least favourite then why re-vote it back in? It's almost as if Notorious (for example) went out, came back and got placed a rank higher even though it shouldn't be because it has been voted it out
b) Essentially you're making us pick favourites by grouping them in pairs i.e. Higher and Disco Love as well as What About Us and Ego are generally ones we all agree on as really good songs anyway, so it's sort of tempting with the results by pairing them off against each other when that might not really be the case of a least favourite. Aka were basing the song against another song when it's the least favourite song rate, not songs
c) Leading on from point b, I might have my least favourites as What About Us and Ego for example yet I'm being forced to pick a favourite out of a least favourite as well as possible vote for a song in the first category which may be like a third favourite song yet I'm forced to vote as least favourite even though it's a favourite?

Sorry for ramblings that would make Motormouth proud, but I hope those points make sense?

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo goddamnit
I voted for my faves in the first 3 polls.... DEAD

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 07:56 AM

Which were your faves, Tim?

Posted by: SB. 15th August 2014, 07:58 AM

Work and What About Us?

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 08:00 AM

Yes and Disco Love

Posted by: SB. 15th August 2014, 08:02 AM

Ahhh should have figured that out as the bottom two have 10 and 5 votes, the top has 6 and 9.

Posted by: James ⭐ 15th August 2014, 09:41 AM

Higher, Ego. Work & What Are You Waiting For for me

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 11:04 AM

I'm going to have to use all my powers and voodoo rituals again to get Notorious out in the next round

Posted by: SB. 15th August 2014, 11:11 AM

That won't be needed if it was voted out last round I'm sure it'll be voted out again!

Posted by: Cameron 15th August 2014, 11:40 AM

All Fired Up has vanished. Swap for Disco Love please. #DiscoLoveToMakeTop3

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 11:43 AM

All Fired Up and Up were saved due to being more popular in the previous rounds!

Posted by: Satsfan7 15th August 2014, 11:55 AM

Higher cannot leave Work and Not Giving Up should both be eliminated instead.of one.of Disco Love or Higher

Posted by: yeeeah 15th August 2014, 12:01 PM

Call me stupid but I really don't understand what's going on this round. Anyway, voted for lease favourites: Disco Love, Ego, Work. Voted to put back in My Heart Takes Over.

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 12:05 PM

Shit, I voted for my fave in the first three, nooooo :'(

Posted by: James ⭐ 15th August 2014, 12:07 PM

Higher Ego & Work for least faves compared to the others.

Still absolutely adore Disco Love ❤❤

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 12:09 PM

I can't believe I literally voted agaimst 3/4 of my top 4!! (What About Us, Disco Love and Not Giving Up). :crying:

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 12:11 PM

You're just as dumb as I am

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 12:13 PM

I blame it on the fact that we're not British and/or English native speakers.

Posted by: James ⭐ 15th August 2014, 12:13 PM

Aw you chose to keep the same ones as me ❤

Can't you change it with your mod privileges?

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 12:16 PM

Europeans shouldn't be asked to know the difference between fave and least fave
Ain't nobody got time for dat

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 12:18 PM

Ultraviolence will sort you out babes. I ain't loosing Disco Love, I've already lost Notorious.

Posted by: Totto 15th August 2014, 12:29 PM

Nooo babe no, don't do this. Can't you ask Ultraviolence to change it?

I can't choose between Work and Not Giving Up

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:35 PM

I could actually change it myself. I just don't want anyone to start accusing me of cheating the scores or whatever
If there's anyone willing to witness the actual vote the time I change mines it would be nice HA!

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 02:36 PM

Witnessing here. #FutureMod

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:42 PM

So we're clear, this is the actual vote :

Now Imma change it. I voted for DL, WAU and NGU thinking I was voting for my favorites. Clearly not. So my vote goes against Higher, Ego and Work.

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:44 PM

Now the vote is this :

It should be good now.

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 02:46 PM

Can you change mine too?
I voted WAU, Work and Disco Love as my faves

(I don't want you to abuse your mod powahs, so it's okay if you can't do so)

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:48 PM

I don't mind, I just want Joe or anyone that was watching the thread (I SEE YOU MARTYN) confirming my previous change and I'll do it for you too.

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 02:49 PM

WATCHING.


**CONFIRMED**

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:52 PM

Someone has voted which I reckon is Martyn?

So the actual vote now is this :

Someone confirm (again, yes) please

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 02:52 PM

yes yes yes

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:56 PM

So with Tim* voting against 'Higher', 'Ego' and 'Work' and not 'Disco Love, 'What About Us' and 'Work' it shoud look like this :

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:57 PM

I just copy pasted the same quote before the actual change, sorry!

I'm not editing because otherwise I feel like I would get accused, so here's a double post.

Posted by: Joe. 15th August 2014, 02:57 PM

Basically - Disco Love slaying, as it should.

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 02:59 PM

If Totto and Martyn who have apparently been watching too could also confirm it would be nice

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 03:01 PM

Thank you kindly Hurricane, you are too good for this world (still gonna snatch your spot tho)
I'll try reading next time 'round

Posted by: Hurricane 15th August 2014, 03:08 PM

...Or you could snatch Scherz and Lee's spot.

Posted by: JosephStyles 15th August 2014, 03:09 PM

Hurricane, Tim and Joseph, what a fab mod team that'd be *.*

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 03:11 PM

Don't worry, once I've snatched your place, I will overthrow both and hire you again

Posted by: SB. 15th August 2014, 03:16 PM

No, we just can't have a Rochette moderating the forum All my 3 faves are represented through the moderators we have: Wallace as Frankie, Hurricane as Mollie and Scherz as Vanessa

Posted by: jsilv 15th August 2014, 03:19 PM

if ego goes.

Posted by: Ultraviolence 15th August 2014, 03:20 PM

Thanks hurriance for sorting all this out

From now on though if you haven't already voted and you vote for the wrong songs after this post, it is not being changed

Posted by: Liаm 15th August 2014, 03:21 PM

Disco Love
Ego
Not Giving Up
Missing You


Everything left is probably a 9 or 10/10 though except NGU which is great but a tad overrated.

Posted by: JosephStyles 15th August 2014, 03:43 PM

Disco Love
Ego
Work
Notorious

for me.

Posted by: Totto 15th August 2014, 04:14 PM

Don't worry I gotcha and I'll also make sure nobody's gonna snatch your mode place!

#ProctingHurricaneWithMyLife

Posted by: *Tim 15th August 2014, 04:49 PM

Keep voting Ego, or else I'll have to make some alliasses

(Also Totto, you are definately not going to be next to me, enjoying the perks of befriending a leader, once I become mod BYE)

Posted by: Niall Minogue 15th August 2014, 05:29 PM

Mis-read the bottom poll, damn voted for the wrong track

Posted by: Jonjo 18th August 2014, 12:03 AM

I voted the other day btw...

'Disco Love'
'What About Us'
'Work'
'My Heart Takes Over'

Posted by: Ultraviolence 18th August 2014, 12:09 AM

What do you think I should do as I made a mess of this round

A) Continue like I said in first post
B) Restart with all 8 remaing tracks like usual
C) Restart with 6 in a usual poll and all fired up and up getting byes
D) putting the song that got the most votes to be brought back in into a poll Witt the other 3 high scores to try and survive

Which one should I do? The one that most people prefer will happen so comment below

Posted by: Martyn 18th August 2014, 09:12 AM

Go with B do we really need a song voted back in?

Posted by: Hurricane 18th August 2014, 12:14 PM

A) tbh

Posted by: Joe. 18th August 2014, 12:55 PM

A

Posted by: yeeeah 18th August 2014, 01:20 PM

B. I don't really think a song needs to be voted back in.

Posted by: jsilv 18th August 2014, 01:23 PM

B, only because I don't want Notorious back in If it was Issues, I'd vote for A any day.

Posted by: *Tim 18th August 2014, 03:33 PM

Posted by: Cameron 18th August 2014, 05:27 PM

I would rather we just moved on and got this finished

I think you should just eliminate Work since it has the most votes

Posted by: Ultraviolence 18th August 2014, 08:07 PM

Here's what I think I am going to do

At around 1am tomorrow morning (the 100, Taylor webchat and CBB take priority) I am going to create 2 groups of the 8 remaining song using chart tools (I think that's the name of the website) which you put all your items into this wheel and 1 item is chosen each time. So it will work like first song goes group 1, second song goes group 2 and third song goes group 1 etc. also no song is coming back in
The one with the most votes in group A and group B will both be evicted (a double elimination was going to happen in Round 10 but as we are running behind, I am going to bring it forward to this week)

Is everyone ok with this?

EDIT: It will now be sometime Tuesday cause I can't stop listening to Taylor Swift
