It was on the news this morning saying the group that got them to number 1 last year are trying to get wagner to win to piss simon off and basically put an end to x factor once and for all. if he won, x factors`s credibility would be destroyed. People who voted for their acts this year would not bother next year. what would be the point if these idiots are just voting to make a statement. i wouldn`t watch it again. my family have already stopped watching.

Not surprised, given the uber-manipulated crap it's become over the last couple of years.
Waggers FTW
Nor has Cowell. The man used to manage Zig and Zag for gods sake, its delusional to think giving him money (voting) could take away something he has never had.
Its all a game. He loves wagner, wagner winning wouldnt hurt either cowell or the x factor, nor would it end it, viewing figures this year are at record levels in fact, its more likely to have more joke acts next time not less.
Voting for wagner because people like him isnt killing anything any more than voting one direction (who after last night I would say are musically less talented and the real joke act), voting for wagner, or anyone, as some sort of protest though, well that's just giving someone you dont like money.
What's wrong with Zig and Zag?
Anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool who is easily parted from his money.
I don't actually mind if Wagner wins - when all is said and done, the judges put him through, and so far he has had enough votes (whatever the reason behind those votes) to stay in so in that sense its perfectly fair.
Plus I don't think it's nice to purposely try and ruin other people's viewing pleasure. Fair enough if certain people don't like the show, but taking it away from other people aswell is rather selfish me thinks.
Part of the reason why X Factor has so much influence is because people enjoy watching it, no matter how manipulated it is.
If that happened and it was a big problem, then next yeah just don't put a silly act through.
I feel sorry for Wagner as he is bieng hyped up and also being laughed at by many. I find the use another human being to satisfy the desires of those wishing to diss SC quite sad.
I am sure Louis was told to put Wagner through, after all he had one or two other decentish singers in his category. Wagner has been a real money spinner this year!
After all not only are they making money from his votes but people are voting extra hard for their own favourites because of him.
Do you agree with what Matt said about Wagner?
I agree however its not really Wags fault he is being used by those trying to get back at SC. ';);)
I am not going over old ground - one should look forward not backwards.;);););)
SC could hide him and not release an album.
Quite why anyone does not realise the truth of the highlighted statement is a mystery to me. Next year we can expect the even less talented younger brothers of Jedward, Wagnita who is Wagner's twin sister and the return of the granny who sang about a gangbang in the top 12. :eek:
The purpose of the show is purely to make money. There's no artistic or musical credibility to it whatsoever.
Someone could quite as easily say they can't believe how stupid YOU are for watching XF fullstop. Why the need to insult all the time? It just weakens your arguments child :rolleyes:
The Wagner thing is purely about trolling the X-Factor. I don't begrudge people voting for him, but I can't muster the same enthusiasm just to troll. I certainly wouldn't spend good hard-earned cash on Wagner and Simon Cowell every week. I think Simon Cowell will be mildly annoyed if Wagner wins, but given how quickly he disposes of his other artists, I don't think he'll be that put out. What may hurt him will be of his own making - I think the deliberately controversial decisions this year will lead to a drop in viewing figures next year. It won't be a massive drop, but I think this year is the peak.
You make it sound like they're the Baader-Meinhof gang or something!
