Well, I admit I wasn't in my usual state of mind when I made that post. Claiming that the bottom 4 were out because of who they were was an exaggeration on my part, for sure.

As for Kadie, well, I would have probably said that she didn't get the support because she's a young female, since the country cult always supports grown men. Chloe was a country singing girl in season 8 and she was cut the first chance America got. But yes, I did say that I was sure Kadie would be in the Top 5. I guess I should have known better. I'm glad she wasn't.

I don't think Edgar is a country cult favorite right now. They just got lucky.

Chip: I'd switch Jon and Blake in your Week 1 predictions, along with Deadly Games and Edgar. There's no way DG have a better shot at this point than Edgar do. That's what I think. The rest of Week 1 I can agree with. For week 2, I'm not so sure that Calysta is a guaranteed advancement. Brian should be, I hope to God, and I think Steven and Jayna should be up there also. I predict that Viktor will be an unfortunate elimination in this round. Sofie might make the Middle 3 somehow. As for Kadan... well, damn it, he'll probably make the Top 3 again won't he.
