Resurrecting the AIFL

I know, my priorities have been mixed up. I chose to place more importance on taking 20 people to Peru than keeping the AIFL updated. I have since repented, and will once again pledge my whole heart to the AIFL.

Here's where we go from here, if you're still in. By next Tuesday, March 31, you need to rate the 9 remaining contestants, and order them from 9 to 1, with number 9 being your pick for the next American Idol, and number 1 the person you think will go home the soonest. Every week your contestants stay on the show, they will get the number of points you gave them on their rating, times the number of week it is, with the week of March 31 being week one. (Example: My #7 choice stays on through week one, he earns me 7 points. In week 2, he earns me 14 points. Week three, he earns me 21 points, etc.)

So, you have a week to get your ratings in. Here's where things really get interesting! If my instructions are confusing, check back in a couple of days to see my picks as an example of what to do.

We will also continue to predict who is going home every week, starting with this week's show. So tune in and be ready to predict who's going home! Thanks for your patience, and let the game continue . . .
