New Wave Survivor-Idol 2-7

Postby scramjet » Fri Jun 10, 2005 1:08 am

The voters have put the hurting on Tears for Fears and aren't so in love with OMD. They're the clear standouts so off they go.

Rankings for this round:
7. OMD
8. Tears for Fears
9. Elvis Costello
10. Gary Numan
11. INXS
12. XTC
13. Billy Idol
14. The Go-Go's
15. Thomas Dolby

Vote your least favorite off the island. If credible evidence arises of hanky-panky between voters and contestants your vote won't be counted, but there will be some interesting threads here on NWO.

Review the last round here:

I just don't want our little NWO game to become tainted like American Idol by sex-for-votes allegations a-la Paula Abdul. [}:)][:D][:0] For example, if it came out that AFOS's longevity in the game were due to some NWO member(s) shacking up with Mike Sco

So members are voting several times? In that case, can I vote for AFOS seventy times?Thanks

Lessons I've learned at NWO:
