It looks like we're moving through the M4BCC Song Contest at record speed within the past two weeks. All of the votes for Round 10 are in. Let's get right to the results!
In Round 10, two songs tied for first place. I'm not going to do a Bottom 4 again. Under this scenario, only eliminated contestants would be left to vote...and we're not going to allow that until the final round. So, I instituted a "doomsday scenario" tiebreaker. The person whose song had more first place rankings this week will take over sole possession of first place in Round 10. The other person will go into the Elimination Round. With that said, it's time to reveal the results!
Jessica! Come on up here, girlfriend! You're the only girl left in the competition. But that's nothing new. You were the only girl in the competition to begin with! And no, the time that we forced Joel to dress up as Mariah Carey and dump a bucket of fake glitter on you doesn't count. Come to think of it, neither does the time that we caught John and David J backstage dressed-up as Barbra Streisand and Donna Summer, singing "No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)." Boy, I wish I had a camera with me!!! But I digress... You submitted Song #3, "Petals" by Hole. During the last results show, I led you to believe you were safe. Then, I cruelly revealed the unintentional twist that sent you to the Elimination Round. Let me assure you there will be no tricking you this time around. And that's because you're in the Bottom 3 this week.
Joel, you're next. Please join me at center stage! Joel, you submitted Song #1, "Wally" by Aslyn. I wish I had better news for you, Joel. But you know how these reality TV results shows always go. The person who is safe is never revealed THIS early on. So, I'm sorry to say that Joel, you are also in the Bottom 3 this week. You'll be joining Jessica in the Elimination Round.
That leaves our final two contestants...Bryan and Drag. They both tied for first place. However, one contestant's song received more first place votes than the other. Bryan, you submitted Song #4, "Evil Genius" by Pat Benatar. Drag, you submitted Song #2, "Walk On By" by Britney Spears. I'm sure everyone - except for Drag - is tired of hearing me say this, but I feel I should point out that Drag has not been in the Bottom 3 yet. No wonder I see sweat forming on your forehead, Bryan. I'd be nervous too! Let me end the suspense now. They say that, at the end of your life, you should never have to live with regret, not knowing what it's like to experience as much as you can while you're alive. Keeping that in mind, Drag, now you'll never have to regret not experiencing what it's like to be in a M4BCC Song Contest Elimination Round! You are in the Bottom 3 this week and will be joining Jessica and Joel in the Elimination Round. Bryan, that means you are safe and will definitely be moving on to the Semi-Finals!
Now, here are the three songs submitted for this week's Elimination Round:
Song 1: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGPpdM3SGSk
Song 2: www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5GOJFj9tUc
Song 3: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ6Dtat76UI
Here is a recap of the Elimination Round rules:
- Please vote for the TWO songs you like the best.
- As participants in this week's Elimination Round, Drag, Jessica, and Joel will not be permitted to vote. If they do vote, they will have 3 votes deducted from their song's total votes.
- Since Bryan is the only participant who is not in the Elimination Round this week, once he votes and ALL active contestants have submitted their songs for the next round, voting will be closed for the Elimination Round. As always, any contestants who have already been eliminated are allowed to vote. However, voting will not be held until the deadline if everyone has submitted their next songs and Bryan has voted in the poll.
- As with the main rounds of the Song Contest, no one is allowed to reveal the identities of the songs or who submitted each song.
- At the end of voting 11:59pm North American Eastern Time on Saturday, January 25, (yes, still the same deadline as with the last Elimination Round and Round 10 regular voting.) the three participants whose songs have the most votes will move on to Round 11. The participant with the least amount of votes will be eliminated.
***IMPORTANT RULE FOR THIS ROUND ONLY***: Since, at the end of this Elimination Round, there will only be three contestants left, there will be no more Elimination Rounds after this one. In Round 11, whichever person's song comes in last place will be eliminated right away. This means you do not have to submit an elimination song for the next round. Please ONLY submit a competition song.
- The songs for Round 11 of the M4BCC Song Contest will be posted at the end of the Elimination Round.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to post them here or PM me.
Good luck to our 3 participants this week!
