I didn't realise it registered other words for the contestants.

Apparently texting MUFFINS voted for Little Mix, PRINCESS for Amelia and PROZAC voted for Marcus.

Disappointingly, BULLY voted for Misha, and interestingly PLEASESTOP voted for Frankie. Which explains how he stayed in.

Also if you sent a blank text it would assume you had forgotten and would vote for Janet.

Shame they've stopped text voting or I would have liked to try this.

I heard that a couple of years ago you could vote for Danyl by typing In Lloyd.

I expect NUDGENUDGEWINKWINK also worked as well.

NUDGENUDGETWINKTWINK too!

Oh very good!

Gold star for you.

And this thread means what exactly, that you are daft or what? sorry you lost me on this one.

I've heard about this as well...it does not surprise me...if you spell Amelia's name wrong (e.g. Amelie, Amalia, Amelea etc) apparently it votes for Little Mix...

I thought I'd explained it well enough in the OP?

Or aren't you familiar with mobile phones and SMS texting?
