I really like all three, but one of these I have loved since the very time I heard of him. This person would work extremely well both in my team and under my mentoring techniques, so my wildcard contestant will be the amazing- Morten Benjamin.

And with that Jess has four acts too!

Isak Danielsson
James Arthur
Johnny Ruffo
Morten Benjamin

That's it for the act picking, or is it?

Can the twist be that I get to mentor Angel Tupai pretty please?

Okay, this one is quite a massive game-changer.

I may have lied when I told you that Stephen was the only returning judge this series. Also, don't you think that there are still some very good wildcards who deserve a second chance?

This series will introduce a fifth judge to the panel. With that, there are some extra rules. For example, whoever is last to vote in a sing-off situation may take the vote to deadlock . There will also be more acts, and with that more multi-eliminations.

Anyway, please welcome back Soppyfan, who will be mentoring the Wildcards this series!

Soppyfan, please pick four of the eight already eliminated wildcards. It doesn't have to be one from each category, you may assemble your team at will.

Thank you judges, I kept that one quiet for a while, didn't I?

Yes anyways, I have my selections and they are from each category as well, because that's how I roll.

From the boys, I'm taking... Jesper!

From the girls, I'm choosing... Sumera Espinel!

From the overs, I'm going with... Nathaniel Willemse!

And from the groups, I'm gonna go for... J.E.M!

Now that is what I call a wildcard team.

I hope the theme is something easy to start with, I have a feeling that this is going to be a long Series.

Now I gotta try to not lose nearly my whole team this time!
EndOfSanity
12-11-2012
Okay, let's start with the theme. As you all have 4 acts to mentor, I'm going to cut you all some slack and get you a relatively easy theme. The first theme will be Top 10.

Basically, that means you can pick any song that's charted in the top 10 of ANY official chart in ANY country. Alternatively, songs from albums that have been in the top 10 of ANY official album chart in ANY country are allowed as well. Should be really easy for seasoned mentors like yourselves, but good luck nonetheless!

A word of warning though, the first live show will feature a quadruple elimination. However, don't be scared to lose your entire category, as that's not going to happen. This is how the first show will work:

The acts are being scored individually, but I'll create two voting stats. One for the individual acts within the top 20 and one for the acts within each separate category. At the end of the show, the bottom acts of each category will be in danger. The three lowest-ranked acts will leave, while the remaining two will sing for survival. At the end of the day, this will leave ONE mentor will all of his/her acts for the second live show.

I hope that clears it up, if it didn't you'll just have to wait and see.

12-11-2012
Oh, and does anyone have any suggestions for a date for the first live show?

My initial thought was Thursday, but that might be a bit early considering you'll have to pick 8 songs (four songs plus four sing-off songs)...

My only question is that can we choose online charts as well? I am good with thursday I believe but I am good any date really

As long as they're official charts it's allowed. And by official I mean charts like Heatseekers album charts, the Billboard Hot 100 and such. As a general rule of thumb, if the wikipedia page of a song/album says it's charted anywhere it's allowed.

I can't do Thursday as I play tennis on a Thursday night, but I can send my comments and stuff all in before hand if Thurs suits everyone else

You won't ever see me plan a show on these days as I'll be out working those evenings.

Anyway, would this Thursday be an acceptable option for all of you? It would only give you 3 days to pick songs though...
