Phone Vote
Panto

Just wondering if the phone vote were open longer like they used to be in earlier series their would be a different result
The phone lines are open for less than an hour which half of this clashes witrh X factor
I know it is all recorded on Saturday

yeah we don't have long to vote these days do we? I am sure in the first series the 'phone lines were open all week - which isn't necessarily a good thing as it kinda takes the "show" element away and makes it a personal
vote - but we do only get a short time to vote - so maybe a happy medium needs to be sought

I think the phone lines being open all week was because the revenue went to CIN and that no longer applies.

I don't vote until final week & suspect I'm not the only one. One reason is because the cost, the second is be use I'm not interrupting my XF for anything!

I don't vote at all because I can't bear to watch the show live, it's too cringeworthy so I have to skip lots of the between-dances rubbish.

As I wouldn't be a multi-voter anyway, I comfort myself that my single phone call wouldn't have made a difference to the result.

that makes sense - did it stop being for charity when the whole "phone votes scam" broke for other programmes

Has anyone worked out the points permutations between each elimination?

If this has been discussed somewhere else, please point me in the right direction.
