idol "shocker"

GrannyMae · #1 04-13-2005, 09:13 PM

ok,

this needs own thread if any investors are watching show.

seacrest opens show with comment
"trust me america, you are in for a SHOCK"

shock can mean only 2 things.

1. 2-3 good contestants in bottom 3 (but not neccesarily eliminated)

2. shocking elimination

soooo, for example, if you see scott, nadia and anwar in bottom 3, then anwar is gone because that would be only shock. (glad i sold him to short some carries and PRAYING the shock is carrie = gone)

get your fingers on the 'sell' button and SHORT the favorite in a situation like above
(2 non shocks, 1 shock pulled down for bottom 3)

no rocker shocks pls america. (i can handle one gone i guess, but i'd rather they both survive)

They have suspended betting at betfair (nothing sinister, it's because we can't see the show) but depending on the odds, it is possibly worth shorting all four faves right now.

I certainly hope not, I'm holding 64 of him. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

I'm guessing anwar.

I'd love to see constantine or carrie, but think they have as much chance of leaving as bo.

he just said

"you will NOT beleive who is in bottom 3"

that can mean 2 favorites in bottom 3, but neither gone.

gonna be a long 35 minutes

All of my Anwar has been sold, some today, most last week.
I can take anything but Bo going.

but carrie gave worst performance of all favs.

there could be a MASSIVE difference between eliminated contestant and second lowest vote gettter so nothing can really be determined by bottom 2.
