I am now getting more busy signal's on Chris's line now, but still getting through way too much.

Chris and Taylor are on a collision course for the #1 spot.

The rest are 1 bad performance away from elimination.

My take on tonight: Gayce saved Teeth's bacon. Out are Peter Brady and Gayce. I think chicken little will hang around for a while because he has a cute factor that will keep getting him votes.

I am reading a lot of the same thing for all contestants...maybe the system is more available now that the contestants are fewer?? Who knows, but it doesn't seem to be limited to one person (anecdotal, I know)

I have gone down to now more than 4 busy signals in a row and up to 10 votes in a row...

I can't stand Ace--and his "song" tonight made me ill--but there's no way he's going home tomorrow. He won't even be in the bottom three.

Pee Wee, Wonder Years and Bucky are the ones in danger, IMO.

do they count every call if I get through 100 times or one time per incoming phone number? (meaning does it pay off if you call 100 times or does 100 calls = 1 vote because my phone is the same.)

My 15 year old niece loves Ace.....as do her friends....ugh

They don't like any of the girls....especially gherkin...they saw her hug Ace. NOT acceptable. She shouldn't be throwing herself at him....he's popular, she's not! Taylor and Chris are too old...Bucky isn't "cute" like Ace. Wisdom from 15 year old AI fans....

However many times you can get through counts as a vote. 100 times = 100 votes.

I don't like that way that sounds either - but I guess we don't have to wait long to find out...I'll probably vote for a few more minutes and then pack it in...I honestly don't know what to make of the busy/vote thing as this is the first time I have personally voted by telephone...I ususally just text one or two votes in per show...I have got to believe that Chris is safe with all the other "junk" we saw tonight...

Shout "Ace is gay!" and see what reaction you get from them :)

it's just too easy to get through, I thought maybe they changed the rules. Chris has at least 150 votes from me.

The mother in me loves chicken little...want to make sure he's warm and tucked in for the night. I like Elliot because he's Jewish and has diabetes.(My husband is Jewish and our son is diabetic)BUT....I love Chris and think he should win!

You have to wonder if Gayce had Seacrest kick him square in the gonads before he started his song.

I keep forgetting who is doing the voting. On review, I think Pee Wee, Teeth and Wonder Years.

I forgot about Pee Wee -- his performance was that forgettable.

I think Teeth gets on people's nerves.

The guys brought it again tonight.

1. Taylor was Awesome - he is BACK!!! Bravo bravo Bravo

2. Eliot - another great vocal performance. He may be the best pure singer among the men.

3. Gideon - Just gets better every week. Great job tonight.

4. Chris - Great voice, good job, but I think he is going to suffer from song choice tonight. It just didn't connect

5. Bucky - good job, but he is definately on the bubble.

6. Will - good, but not good enough

7. Kevin - has a nice voice, but UGH song choice song choice song choice

999. Ace - absolutely unbelievably gut wrenchingly horrible. Sickening doesn't even to begin to describe that bile inducing pathetic performance. Unfortunately there are a tons of tone death insipid teenage girls that will jam the phone lines tonight. UGH!

Ace should be sent packing pronto - but in reality it will be Will & Kevin, with Bucky a possibility.
