As we have been discussing, we are starting a American Idol Game on the Hose. For those of you watching American Idol this will be a great way to demonstrate you know more than KillerB #1.
Participating should be straight forward. Just tell in what order you think the remaining contestants will be going home:
- Adam "Theatre Queen" Lambert
- Allison "Red Headed 16 Year Old" Iraheta
- Anoop "Doggy Dog" Desai
- Danny "Downy Jr." Gokey
- Kris "Chris" Allen
- Lil "No Nickname Needed" Rounds
- Matt "Pianoman" Giraud
- Megan "Tattoo Sleeve" Joy
- Scott "The Blind Guy" MacIntyre
More...
Scoring
Rank each of the remaining nine contestants in the order you think they will depart from the show, 1-9 (e.g., if you think Danny is going home next week and Lil Rounds will win, you will rank them 1 and 9, respectively).
The winner is the person with the least points!
You will be assessed points for each contestant based on the formula:
2 ^│Guess - Actual│ - Note that the exponent is an absolute value.
For example, if you thought Megan was going home 2nd but she actually made it to 5th, you will get 2 to the power of│2-5│ = 2 to the power of 3 = 8 points.
Please return your picks no later than 7pm, Tuesday
March 31st to thehose@gmail.com along with an appropriate handle for us to refer to you as.
I'll post and maintain the results in a publicly viewable googledocs spreedsheet online.
