Fair enough

Ah okay. Understand about the suprise factor.

I've sent the first 24 auditionees to David. Just in case you don't know this, I compiled a list of ALL televised X Factor acts from the UK, USA and Australia from 2011 onwards and had the RNG randomly pick 12 acts per category. If you only get bad acts, it's not my fault - I had no hand whatsoever in the picking of the acts.

While it did do a fair job at picking some viable acts, the standard might be a little more dire than what you're used to on these forum games. Only adds to the fun/challenge though, but keep it in mind when giving your verdicts.

Viewers, join us on Friday 7th November at 6:15 PM for the first audition show of The X Factor: Project Stars, where the search for a true star begins!

But also some horrendously bad acts.

If there's anything to be learned from this, it's that the RNG cannot be trusted with selecting acts. Still, it will make for an experience that's very close to the real thing and that's what counts here.

Haha yeah

Can I just ask, if we reject a load, is there a third audition show as a back up? (just in case)

I have a special twist planned for acts that get 2 yeses, that's the fail-safe mechanism here.

That's possibly good... especially for 1 category - although i'm only 10 acts in, so it could all change

Sounds like a fun game idea. I will be following this thread from time to time
