CHANGE THE GAME WITH THAT DIGITAL DROP
Welcome to the inaugural season of ATRL's The X Factor!
Adapted straight from Simon Cowell's hit television show The X Factor, this game aims to replicate everything you know and love about the show (depending on how many sign-ups we get!)
The Basics
We start the game with a number of contestants, and based on the number of sign-ups we get, this should be how the competition will progress:
over 18 sign-ups - "six chair challenge"
up to 18 sign-ups - straight to "judges houses"
up to 10 sign-ups - straight to "live shows"
Each round,
contestants must have to send in an audio (or video, if you prefer)
cover of them singing a song (or if allowed for the round, an original song). The minimum length will be 90 seconds (TBC).
THE X FACTOR FORMAT
Four Chair Challenge
Each judge will be given a category of acts. Unlike the real show, these categories will be randomised due to the lack of females and near-impossibility of "groups" on ATRL. The four-chair challenge will work as the "audition" (if we use this stage) and will play out over a series of nights much like on the real show - people's auditions will be posted and if the judge likes them, they get a seat. Once a judge fills up all 4 seats, if they like another act after that then they must replace one of their acts that already has a seat.
Judges Houses
Each judge now has their category of 4 acts from six-chair challenge, plus a wildcard act so 5 overall. Each act will sing a song of their choice and based on this, the judges will each choose a category of 2 acts to take through to the live shows. The public will also choose 1 wildcard for each judge, bringing the live shows up to 15 acts.
Live Shows
Each week, all acts will perform a song based on a theme. The judges mentor their category of 3 acts throughout. Then, after the performances, the judges and viewing public will both vote on who should go through, and after these scores are combined, the bottom 2 will be announced. The judges will then choose an act to save from the bottom 2.
This will continue until the winner is crowned!
