I feel that this is a tough one, as each team seemed to excel in different aspects of the task. However, I do believe that our finished presentation was a very solid one, and perhaps more realistic/focused than that of the other team.

(Gav had to go, by the way.)

For clarification, that was at 9pm last night when you were off school for the whole day and failed to contribute to the task

And were also able to post unitl 1:07 am last night in the x factor forum...........

Once again, I am going to say, this was a tough choice as both team did very very well, and this decision was certainly the toughest so far.

Team Hermes

I did like a lot the direction you went with, I thought the diary and campaign were very well written, and I liked your direction you took your artist with, I thought it seemed very realistic, though maybe the other teams one could have more potential for longestivity..

Team Footprint

I thought the act you chose was very good and I was impressed with the detail you went into with the diary. I thought it seemed very thorough and I could certainly see Firework as a brilliant cover for the band. It seemed great, but the question for me was if all seemed realistic and dead on target....

Ultimetly, after a lot of talk, the winner of the task IS....

TEAM HERMES.

Congratulations guys, despite you having lesser numbers,the decision was made that you guys JUST edged it out over Footprint, you really hit the target for me, and even though Footprint did a great job too, I felt you guys just got it.

Footprint, this was a tough call, and there is no denying you did a good job, but unfortunately, one of you will be fired...

Well done Team Hermes.

Can I just ask a question...

Did the fact they used original songs play towards their win?

r0ry101

25-06-2011

Well guys, this was a close result as I said, but unfortunately one of you is going.

What it seemed was, I really felt the target audience was clear to me with Hermes, and I did get that from you too, but not as much as Hermes - the diary also did feel at times a little...farfetched I guess would be how I'd feel.

What do you guys think went wrong for you?

Nope, you guys were equal for me in terms of song choice

Nothing, if I'm honest.

Now, I don't want to play the blame game, but if i'm going to be honest...

Only three of us contributed towards this task. Once again, Luke has done nothing and I think if he had actually bothered to contribute then I do feel as if we could have won.

I don't think anything went wrong. We put in a lot of effort and did a lot of work.

All promotional tours are very hectic, especially for a first album. Lady Gaga didn't have a day off for over 18 months at one stage.

Okay, thanks.

It was played around a lot in the questions addressed to us that the cover songs could've been seen as slack. (: Thanks for firming that up.

Feel free to tell me three things you actually did that contributed to this task.

My entire team will support me on this one.
