I would say its mainly because the boys that're put through to the live shows are usually quite week and not that unique so its kind of hard to find a diamond in the rough. Although you do get the occasional one who is gold

Thanks Roxie!

And yes to the theme, hoping it's easier than last time

Alright, here's my reasons why I did that.

1. I felt that it was inevitable that I was going to be out of the competition, no matter who I was up against, so I thought it would be best to just go out there and shock everyone with my decision.

2. Fifth Harmony's sing-off song took me to a place where if the words mean so much, it strikes me in the heart and puts me in full-on emotion, hence why I came up with my forum name.

3. I'm involved with at least 3 other games as a mentor and 1 game where I'm a co-host, so with no more acts left for me, it's become a bit easier for me to work around these games.

Ah well....Bella or Fifth Harmony to win now that I'm out.

Just out of interest JACK who are your favourites?

All right then, from the next show onward, each act will sing two songs each show. However, with all the annoying themes that we've had in the past and the ones that are coming up, I have decided to pick something easy for you.

The theme is called Same Difference. No, it doesn't have anything to do with cheese or campness like the X Factor act of the same name. No, the goal of this theme is to pick two songs by the same artist that are totally different from one another. How you define this difference is up to you entirely. For instance, you could pick a fast and a slow song, or a powerful and a soft song. Couldn't be any easier if I say so myself, so make use of it and make sure your acts shine during the last show that will have a sing-off. It's just a single elimination next time, so no worries on that part.

The show is scheduled for Thursday October 10th, which gives you ample time to find songs. We'll start at the usual time of 6:15 PM. Good luck!

Ah, nice theme!!

Oh yeah, don't expect me to be easy on you all as well. I may have no acts but I can be just as critical as I have been a lot in this Series.

Thanks Steve for your 5H support! And quite like this theme actually. Just to let you know, as I'm not sure what the schedule will be now, I'll be in America (so excited

) from 25th Oct-3rd Nov so wouldn't be able to do any shows during that time.

Well crap, I just realized that I can't do 15th October...

Change of plans:

Live show #8 - Thursday 10th October
Live show #9 - Monday 14th October
Semifinal - Friday 18th October
Grand Final - Tuesday 22nd October

That means the next show will be on Thursday rather than Friday at 6:15 PM!

Also I think I have done well with the overs seeing as I only started with 2!!!

Look at this, I updated the overview without anyone having asked me to do it, how benevolent of me.

On another note, for those of you who haven't sent in acts for The Chance Factor yet, please check it out and send in acts. The more the merrier of course!

You have Pingu, you and Anna have been holding on for such a long time now. There's still three shows between now and the final though.

I just realized that there are no male contestants left, just female acts and one mixed group!

Like Nicholas McDonald. He's going to become a worldwide hit.

Really is a bad time to be a male, isn't it?

Wow, I'm flopping so badly, I just realized that I can't do Thursday 10th October either...

That means I'm going to have to push it back to Friday 11th October again, regardless of the following show being on Monday. I hope you don't mind having only 2 days to pick songs, I could of course be persuaded to give you the themes in advance if that would help y'all out...

Again, I apologize for the mess I'm making of the schedule.

So far I have only received one set of songs. I'd like to remind the other two judges that still have acts in the competition that the song deadline is tomorrow night, make sure you have your choices in by then!
