Here's a tiny clue on who's joining us on our panel, here's what they could bring to the panel.
"I can bring experience and knowledge to the judging table I've currently already won one of this games having two of my acts in the final 3" "I can bring fun and honesty to the panel" "I can be a bit rough when needed, but I can be very passionate with amazing acts. Though I haven't won with any act, I'm gonna prove that I will with this one." "Bad jokes, good fun (I hope!) and kindness* "Any guesses as to who this interesting bunch are? Well find out at*6:30pm*when all shall be revealed! |

For those who haven't seen the first series, International Factor is a forum game (under the name of The Factor of the Voices). Wherein Karla Estrada from Team Ethan won the series as Esang De Torres of Team Nic finished second, with Morisette Amon, Francis Lim and Lydia Lucy also making the final. |

I wouldn't discuss the format of the first series as a part of it will be changed. Alright, let's discuss the changes:
1. Acts in the show will not be called Acts but Touristars because all acts in the show are foreign acts. 2. Rounds (like Audition, Battles, Knockouts) will be not be reffered to as Rounds, but will be called Gates. 3. Battle Rounds and Knockout Rounds are out, and now replaced with The Bump-offs and The Veteran's Bump-off. 4. While a lot of changes were made, Instant Save (also called Sing-offs) are here to stay. Before I discuss the entire format, I will now introduce our judges one by one. *long post alert* |

Now, here's the full format of the entire competition.
Gate 1: The Auditions Each Touristar will have atleast have a two minute performance as their audition, after each audition, each judge will give their verdict whether they will giving the act an approved stamp or a denied stamp, if an act gets one approved stamp, the act automatically joins that judge in his team, if an act gets two or more approved stamps, the judges will have to convince the act on why they should join his team, in the end a RNG will decide in which team will that act join. Each judge has twelve spots in his team. |

Only two Touristar per group can pass Gate 2. The first two Touristars will automatically get a chair, while the third and fourth Touristars needs to Bump Off the former by surpassing the current high scores. Each judge will given one steal.

Gate 3: The Veteran's Bump-off
This gate is equivalent to the Knockout round. The Touristars is divided in to group of three. Right before the show, the judges will choose one act to be given a fast pass. The guest veteran judge will have a (imaginary) mentoring session with the three Touristars. Only two of these three will proceed to next round. The first Touristar will be chosen by the guest Veteran judge, the Veteran's choice. The second Touristar will be chosen by the judges, the Judge's Choice. After this round, 5 acts will remain on each team. |

Thanks for that, Nicolas
Another twist is the power-ups, each mentor has three power-ups that could be used at any point in the first 3 weeks of the Take Off rounds (since the TO rounds would only be on 5 shows) Double Trouble The points you've given to a certain act will be doubled and counted twice. Bye, Bye, Bye A mentor can transfer points given by a mentor to a certain act and move it to a different act E.g. Lewis gives Tamera Foster 8 points and Ethan uses that power-up, then he moves it to Elha Nympha, then Tamera loses the 8 points and Elha gains the 8 points *Note: Mentors could not use these power-ups to transfer points to their acts, it must be used on a different category. But the last one can be used on your own category... Share Your Blessings The score applied to a certain act by a judge can be added to the points of one of your acts, but no removal of points will happen. |

If you don't want some spoilers, better look away. Just like X Factor, I would be giving away a preview of some acts featured on the show.
