That was a fairly quiet first half of the final there, I really hope some of the other judges will get over here before the end of the show... :sleep:

All right, just 30 minutes left to vote now. I don't want to scare anyone, but we're sitting on a three-way tie at the moment! 
Two additional votes have come in since my last post, but unfortunately we are still sitting on a three-way tie... 
Keep voting everyone!
Keep voting everyone!
All right, the lines are now FROZEN. Well, except for the first person that hasn't voted already. You see, we still have a three-way tie. I have sent out some voting reminders to our regulars, so we should theoretically get another vote fairly soon. As for the rest of you, get ready for the first result of the evening!

Well, you'll have to wait for a bit as there is literally no result at the moment. I've sent out voting reminders, so the person that votes first decides who stays and who goes!
All right, I have received a response that a certain viewer is voting right now. In the meantime, any predictions from you Jack and Steve?
Its a group and Ethan atm. I knew Soppy would like Ethan and Black Ivory though, your comments were so obvious
All right everyone, we have a result. I won't leave you hanging any longer than you already have, so without further ado, let's see who will be leaving us in a moment.
The act that received the fewest votes, and will therefore be leaving the competition in 3rd place is:

Ughhh sorry I have had a horrid day at work. I'm sorry I wasn't here for the first part of the final - I think all three acts are amazing and I am totally content with 3rd if that's my destiny!
Commiserations to GQ, but it was very close! 
But this is gonna be an amazing battle now, we're down to the bottom two survivors as well.

You can post it right now if you want to, as their goodbye performance.
Congratulations Jack! May the best act win 
I completely honestly enjoyed every performance tonight. I'm sad to see my girls GQ go home, but what a great comeback for Black Ivory! I'm excited for Ethan's winner's song, so thanks to everyone who kept him in this round.

Okay folks, let's not waste any more time here than we already have. I'll post the two favourite performances right now, and I'll ask the individual mentors to post their own acts' winner's singles after that (if they can).
For now, here are the two remaining finalists with their mentors' favourite songs:
Ethan Boroian - Anastasia by A Silent Film (week 1)

Ethan
I think everyone had to be expecting this, but this song is a great way to show how full circle you've come. You started off this competition strong, and while there was a bit of a blip on the map (pun maybe intended) along the way, you've been one of the most consistent people here. I've loved working with you each and every week, and this song is a bit of a way to show where you started and how far you've come. I am so proud of you, and I hope you're the last one standing!
Black Ivory
Girls, you know that's not my favorite of yours, but I don't want to be too negative tonight. I'd love to commend you on fighting so strongly after that bottom 2 appearance and really giving it your all on stage - you're one of the most resilient acts, and even with each of us tearing you in certain directions and trying to force you into our little pictures of what we saw in your head, you managed to combat criticism with some amazing performances. Your first two tonight were truly spectacular, and while this wasn't the same for me as some of those, I think you girls are in a great spot tonight. Well done, and good luck to both you and Jack!
