Bother's Eye View: Fantasy X Factor 2010 Week 1

Hello everyone and welcome to the ONLY chart that counts! 48 managers have entered this first week, let's take a look at the points.

• All acts score +3 points, except for sing-off survivor Katie who scores +2 points, and Nicolo and FYD who were eliminated and score +1 point.
• Judges: Louis' acts all survived unscathed and so he scores +12 points. Cheryl's acts score a total of +11 points, Dannii and Simon both lost an act this week and earn +10 points.
• Elimination: Predicting either Nicolo or FYD for the chop scores you +10 points, picking Katie scores +3 for a near miss.

So, bearing all that in mind, let's take a look at the Sunday chart countdown!

(*) Correct score, administrative error.

These are all worked out by hand/menatally, so if you think I've added your points up wrong don't hesitate to get in contact.

The maximum score for the week is 31, but unfortunately no-one who correctly predicted one of the losers had Louis in their team. Bad luck! But congratulations to the five teams who share the top spot.

Several of you have lost an act or two this week, but for this week only you have a way out: You can put any of the Wild Card acts into your team for no penalty. This offer is only open for this week.

One or more people took up the option of choosing a Wild Card for a winner - that option is no longer avaliable now they've all been revealed, we will see in two months if it's a gamble that pays off.

Existing teams, you have a new form to use here: http://www.bothersbar.co.uk/xfacteamform.html

If you're reading this and decide you want in, you have one more week to sign up: you're a week behind, but you have the advantage of seeing all the acts: http://www.bothersbar.co.uk/xfacnewteam.html

Right, I think that's it! Good luck everyone, make sure you get your predictions in in time for the first live show on Saturday.

Bye!
