if the votes hadn't of been frozen and then carried on after, olly would have won as he got more votes than joe on sunday.

[Patrick]

I dont get it?

Did they delete all the votes from when Stacey came 3rd and start again?

[Stephanie]

they added up saturday and sundays votes
but if they had just used sundays votes olly would have won

[Jords]

Edit: Forget what I just put, I got the wrong end of the stick

Woah, what were the voting figures for each contestant Saturday and Sunday, do y'know?

Alot more people must have voted on Saturday, as Joe won with 60-something%.

[Jack_]

Interesting.

Makes sense though really, Joe + George Michael was easily the best of the night and this years answer to Alexandra & Beyonce (although nowhere near as good). Then on Sunday Olly's performance of The Climb, although not as good as Joe's, was more emotional - and would've earnt him the sympathy vote. Oh, and his fans were very scared.

[Stephanie]

when it froze the % was

joe - 52.2%
olly - 27.7%
stacey - 20.1% (3rd)

and then on sunday when they closed the voting it was

joe - 61.3% (+9.1%)
olly - 38.7% (+11%)

meaning olly beat joe on sunday.

[InOne]

Olly and Joe, are they really much different?

[Patrick]

Shame

Olly really should of won, Im just glad Joe is going to flop soon.
I still havent even heard anything about him and usually the winner bes all over the papers.

[Jack_]

He was on the Chris Moyles Show this morning. Only heard a bit of the interview though.

[Stephanie]

i can't wait till olly releases his single in spring

[Jack_]

It'll be interesting to see what style of music Olly does.

anyway i'm going bed now night y'all x

I think it will be Jazz ?
I was surprised by Alexandras style of music after she won the show last year.

And Night Jack

[Stephanie]

night x

[Jords]

Ah yeah true Steph, and night Jack! x

[Marc]

Yeah but that was never going to happen. Plus with 3 people the average % between each would be lower. When Stacey left they made that average go up. So its nothing huge

Rubbish! If the Saturday votes hadn't of counted - then those that voted for Joe on the Saturday would have done so again on the Sunday! Would have made no difference to the outcome!

[teabag.]

im glad because all them voted for olly probably came after he sang the climb!

[robb]

Hardly closed a huge gap, did he? And Olly would have gone on the public vote against Jedward if Dannii hadn't saved him three weeks ago. On reflection, that probabaly cost Stacey a place in the last two.

[MarkWaldorf]

Not really. Joe pretty much had it in the bag from week 7.

[Marc]

People would have voted for Joe again if they knew the saturday votes didn't count.

[ILoveTRW]

someone needs to get over something

[Stephanie]

i was only saying that i noticed it ffs.

LOL sorry I wasn't trying to shoot your idea down. I do think that after Olly's version of 'The Climb' he got loads of votes flooding in

[Stephanie]

i thought his version of the climb was really good and very emotional.
