Top 11 Results: Smell ya later, Nurse Ratched!

The results are in (and yes, we wish we could liveblog the results show too, and when our schedules free up, it's definitely up for discussion!) and Amanda Overmyer missed going on the tour by thatmuch. Ah well!

But onto much more important matters: the Weetapidol Pool Standings!

Last week lots of us knew that David "Boi Toy" Hernandez was getting 12th place, but this week Kelly S was the only one who correctly picked 11th place for Amanda! Earning a full 13 points for this week puts her into the lead!

26 Points: Kelly S
24 Points: Wendi, Martha, Kim, Xaan, and Weetapidol
23 Points: Stacey, Kelly M
22 Points: Weet, Pushca, Carlywei
21 Points: Shmuel, Jake
20 Points: Pie, Gila
19 Points: Shari
18 Points: Eden

As you can see, it's still anyone's game! Also, because I'm a dork (see last pool post) I'm going to keep track of our collective responses (listed as Weetapidol).

See you next week!

Top 12 Results!

Too bad, so sad, David Hernandez! America has spoken and Ryan is undoubtedly crestfallen.

As of tonight's show's airing, these are the pool picks and scoring thus far:


Tied for first place with 13 points: Wendi, Kim, Kelly S, Weet
Tied for second with 12 Points: Mopie, Martha, Kelly, Stacey, Xaan, Carlywei and Jake
Tied for third with 11 Points: Pushca and Gila
Coming up strong: Eden and Shmuel, each with 9 points, and Shari with 8 points

Just for fun, and because I'm a dork when it comes to spreadsheets, I calculated the averages for everyone's pick and collectively, we predict the following rankings for this season:

1. David Archuleta
2. David Cook
3. Carly Smithson
4. Brooke White
5. Michael Johns
6. Jason Castro
7. Ramiele Malubay
8. Syesha Mercado
9. Amanda Overmeyr
10. Chickeze Eze
11. Kristy Lee Cook
12. David Hernandez

Wow, as a hive mind, we're totally accurate! I suspect that Chickeze's average is lower than it would have been if folks had picked after Beatles' night, but eh, America has a short attention span.

Like last year, if you still want to play but couldn't get your picks in before the results show, you can still play along, but you just won't earn any points this week. Last year, a Fashionably Late entrant almost swept the pool, so you're definitely still in the game!

Bonus: Danny Noriega's Most Embarrassing Thing EVAR

Whoops! I love the cyber age, when we put all of our embarrassing shit out onto the internet, where it can haunt us forever. This week, we learned that David Hernandez used to be a stripper (and I'll be honest, when I read this story, I couldn't picture who David Hernandez was and immediately assumed they were talking about Aussie In My Pants) and also, that Danny Noriega is EXACTLY the kid we thought he was.
