And the winner is...

Congrats Brian, for holding on until the end!  I'd like to announce price for 1st place is a month long trip to Hawaii.  (Now don't you wish you tried harder?) Luckily I was already able to cash in the price, click on the link to see the adventure...
Brian's Month in Hawaii
A small congrats to Phillip as well, BUT I think Jessica won the whole season with her duet with Jennifer Holiday!!

Hollie and Skylar got duets with a celeb, and the cast wore white, but the dancers wore black, so we'll give points to brett for guessing white and def Craig for guessing B&W.  Since Kasia had Phillip higher in her top 10, she ended up with the higher score.  


It's been a fun season, I hope you had a good time too.  Thank you for playing!  
BONUS:  get a head start on for next year, any one who gets a friend to join gets to start with 100 Bonus question for them and their friend!!  

This is it..

So I guess the judges had super glue on their chairs, because they didn't get up to clap at all.  I thought there would by multiple standing O's, even if just as a courtesy, guess not.  No one gets those points.  
I am happy to announce that Brian had another song sung, when Jessica sang, "I have nothing".  


So it all comes down to this...


Who will be the next American Idol?? (not who's going home) 


There's rumors of Duets happening tomorrow night Jessica with Jennifer Holiday, Joshua with Fantasia, etc.   Other than the top three, will any other eliminated contestant get a duet?  "No" could be a correct answer, Hollie? Skylar? Colton? Heejun? 100 points


The finale usually starts with a big group number consisting of the entire top 12, What will the costume theme be for the opening number?  All white? Black? red? blue jeans? biker? zombies? circus? It could be anything, good luck guessing.  100 points


This will be the last question I'll total, Currently Kasia is 2 points ahead of Brett, after all the above bonus questions who will have the higher score? Brett or Kasia? question is worth 2 points! 

Race to the end

I tried to give us lots of bonus questions, so everyone could get lots of points, but it looks like Brian stole most of them.  He was the only one to guess the Ford Escape and also got closest to the amount of votes cast, which Ryan say was nearly "90 Million".  

Jaron, Kasia and Brian all guessed that Joshua was going home.

Amy and Trashley guessed that Joshua would sing It's a man's world.  

It all comes down to next week.  It looks like the real competition is between husband and wife, Brett and Kasia who keep passing each other up and currently Kasia is 2 points ahead, yes TWO.  

Should we come up with lots of bonus questions??  If you want to throw one out there leave it as a comment here.  

Nearing the end

No one had a song sung, but Brian, Amy, Amber, Trashley and Wilson all guessed that Phillip would play his guitar twice, all getting 100 points.  
So what's gonna happen tomorrow night?
Who's going home??


What other bonus questions can we come up with? 
How many votes were counted last night??  Last week it was 70 million.  100 points to closest with out going over. 


Here's the line up of 2013 Ford cars, which car will be featured in the music video?? 
http://www.ford.com/new-cars/  (FYI, the escape is not show here)
100 points for correct guess. 


What will eliminated contestant sing on their way home?? Pick a song for each contestant. 
Joshua? Phillip? Jessica? Again, 100 points


Durning next weeks finale, we assume yeah contestant will sing 3 songs, so there will be a total of 6 performances, How many standing ovations (by the judges) will there be?  100 points, again.  

Here's your chance to change the game.. lots of bonus points available!!!
(thanks Troy, Ashley and Kasia for help with bonus questions)

Getting close

It looks like our game is going to come right down to the wire.  Our top 4 are all within 311 points of each other.  Everyone (except me) picked that Hollie was going home.  No one picked Randy having the first signage.  So those that moved up, did so because of their strong top 10.  Two weeks left.. hold on tight!

nearing the end

First of all, congrats Kasia for having a song sung! It seems at this point we might as well flip a coin. 
Who's your bottom 2?
Who's going home?


We need some bonus questions, but I'm struggling to come up with good ones...
Which AI character will we see a poster/banner for first??  Contestants, judges, Seacrest anyone counts. 100 points for correct guess. 
Next week how many times will a contestant play an instrument?  guitar, tambourine, spoons, piano, anything counts.  100 points for correct guess.

Dress of Many colors?

Ok, what color was that? I think pretty much everyone could argue that their color was right, it was gold and metallic and black, silver, shimmery, white, so lets call it a  wash, or give everyone the points.  Why couldn't she just wear a black dress like she was supposed to.  
Watch out for Brett, he moved up another 3 spots tonight, by guessing the bottom 2 and who's going home correctly  plus having one of the strongest top 10's.   

Sing our songs please!

Looks like no one sang any of our songs again.  Also, no one guessed Steven Van Sant, what's wrong with you guys?? It looks like Carrie will be the next alumni performing, I said we would "Carrie" on that bonus question so, 100 points to Amy, Brett, Jaron and Wilson! All of them were in the bottom half, all moved up 2 slots, because things are so close.  (I'm getting scared)


Lets guess a bottom 2 and who's going home.


Bonus: What color outfit will J-Lo be wearing? 100 points
