So set up that the person who got the least votes went home. That's the definition of fix there

They can (and do) manipulate it, but they can't (and won't) fix it.

ITV would never let that happen after the Ant & Dec fiasco.

Somehow I don't think so , Carolynne and Rylan getting the least votes of the night and Carolynne getting less than rylan really is not a surprise in any way. It'd be different if it was Ella or Jahmene who are obviously popular.

wee thought for you : singer one last chance = poor
singer two last chance = average but better
Verdict decided by four pro judges ,between the four cant get a majority = cop out = cheating , fix, = fraud .
People are paying money to participate in this fraud.

the surprise is in three judges to one not agreeing in what was the better performance nothing whatsoever to do with votes.Votes should only come into it when the last two are genuinely hard to separate...clearly not the case last night....bearing in mind Louis clearly stated he wanted to keep The girl,feel sorry for her she lost twice on the one night.

This argument gets trotted out everytime some can't accept that their favourite (but not many others) singer gets the boot.

It's an unproven and unwinnable argument!

Can you prove it was fixed - I doubt it? So why speculate?

If you don't like the show's outcomes, don't watch it.

That's the rules of the competition. You vote to keep people in, the bottom two goes to the judges decision, if they can't come to a decision between the 4 of them then it goes to the ublic vote.

Is it not more of a fraud to send someone home who more people have paid to keep in? Just because he's not who you like doesn't mean anything. More people liked him than liked Carolynne.

I wonder how many of those people also didn't vote for Carolynne so really have no place to complain either.

Do people really believe that the x factor isnt a fix???? good grief where has everyone been down the years???

Heres how it goes>>> x factor launches 2012 to average ratings during the selection process,then at the first live show sat eve Strictly claims a narrow victory,producers get worried and need a ratings boost!!! Que sun nights events and bingo,twitter,facebook,Dspy,and the tabloids are alight!! Producers pat themselves on the back,Job done!!!! ratings on the up from here on in!!!!..Happens every year so why people are getting all wound up is way beyond me!!

Take it for what it is>>> Entertainment and not a so called singing comp!!

No the voting was genuine, going by that process alone it wasn't a fix.
It was fixed in that it was almost certainly pre-decided that Rylan should remain on the show. They know he will be good for viewing figures, so whoever (within reason) might have been involved in a sing-off against him was doomed.

They sent it to deadlock though! I can understand in cases where one is sent home on the judges votes, but in this case it was 100% the public who chose and more people voted for Rylan.

I completely understand what you're saying and agree in a way, but if they had really wanted to keep Rylan in Louise would have kept him in, not went to deadlock.

If it was about the most votes, why do 'Winners' (you know those who millions vote for and are vocally supreme) of XF get branded "flops" and ignored/treat shoddily post the show?

This happens when the chosen act, i.e. the one who XF/SYCO/The Industry have already a strategy in place for who they really want (clearly Rylan is one of them together with the likes of eg: 1D and Olly) and use the show/competition to promote them.

Those winners who they don't want are told to be grateful for their platforming and hung out to dry. With a farewell branding of "flop". After all XF/Syco's hard work and marketing you can't have these acts being competition again so they are downgraded and marginalised as quickly as possible.

In reality less people buy into a supreme vocal than hype. XF have done their homework and they are about making profits from those who are typically, eg TOWIE, BB, Geordie Shore, Katy Price, disposable pop acts, etc, supporters. No brainer watchers and listeners. Believe me they are out there. I am sure a Marketer will pop in here and offer the official classification of the type and confirm they are great in number.

Definitely don't waste my money as it is a fix, but it can be entertaining to watch out and work out the strategies that are in place. Bless em! Some of the TV audience haven't caught onto it all yet.
