American Idol 7 / Week 9 / Results
Ah, it's the good ol' split groups. On one side, Syesha, Carly and Jason. On the other side, Kristy, David Cook and Brooke. And poor little David Archuleta is, I'm sure, going to be asked to voluntarily join the group he thinks is the top three. But we won't get to see that awkwardness until after some of the insipid viewer questions and a Mariah Carey performance.

Archuleta is safe, of course. Then Seacrest has David Cook switch with Syesha, and I have to wonder if he screwed up when sending the kids to their proper sides. He then, as we all knew he would, tells Archuleta to join the safe group. Seacrest finally brings the safe group over -- David Cook, Carly and Jason. Carly seems to give Seacrest a "shut up" and a punch.

Next week is Andrew Lloyd Webber week. Sweet.

Bottom three is all chicks -- Kristy, Syesha and Brooke. The lack of Carly is really a surprise. Syesha is sent back to safety first, then it's blonde-on-blonde. And finally, thank goodness, the planets align and Kristy Lee Cook will be leaving the competition.

Our Picks:
[info]the_missy: Kristy, Syesha, Carly / Carly (2/4)
[info]pinwiz: Kristy, Carly, Brooke / Carly (2/4)
[info]cambler: Kristy, Carly, Brooke / Brooke (2/4)
[info]muppetaphrodite: Kristy, Carly, Syesha / Syesha (2/4)

We all tied this week, so we all get a point.

The Standings:
[info]muppetaphrodite: 6
[info]pinwiz: 6
[info]the_missy: 4
[info]cambler: 2

I think I'm confoosed about your scoring algorithm.

Points only for guessing who gets the axe? Or for bottom-three as well?

There are four possible points every week: one each for the bottom three choices, and one for the eliminated person. In the "Our Picks" section, the first three names are the bottom three, then after the forward slash is the choice for elimination. The person with the most right out of four gets a point for the week.

Gotcha. So it's not points for how many you get right, it's points for getting the *most* right.

Now makes sense. I had the dumb. Need coffee.
