How could Contestant X get voted off in Week X when he wasn even in the Bottom Three the week before?
As I mentioned during one of the shows, nothing motivates the voters more than their guy being in the Bottom Three. Guys who in the bottom group one week usually saw their votes spike the next week, often meaning the guy who was one spot away from the bottom group one week would be eliminated the next. Study the voting percentages at the top of this page and you’ll find a pattern.
