Last year the week of Idol Gives Back AI had a four hour voting time after the program.

Then they did NOT boot anyone that week and the votes from the four hours were added to the next week's two hour voting to create a combined vote to determine the boots --they then booted two people that next week.

This coming week it sounds like someone will get booted because there are three shows this time--the Tuesday night performance show, the Wednesday night fund raising show Idol Gives Back, and then the Thursday results show.

What we don't know is whether they will have the extra voting time like last year-so be prepared in case it is a four hour voting window!

Idol Gives Back always scares me. Last year I lost Chris Richardson because of the weird voting thing they did. However, with three nights of it more than likely they will be sending someone off. Four hours of voting is perfect, sometimes I don't actually get to watch the show till 10 so sometimes I lose an hour. But I'll be voting like crazy this week.

I'm already prepared! I took off work on Wed. morning! I always have to open on Wenesdays but I knew there was no way I'd be able to get up to go in to work if there are 4 hours of voting. So if there are 4 hours to vote...I'm ready! If not then I still get to sleep in on Wednesday anyway!

I'm soo ready for war. ... I can't vote so I call my aunt and cousin all the way from U.S and they'll vote for me....4 hours straight.. I got 24- hours-long distance card so I can call them and check out if they'll doing michael's vote fine....... GET READY, MICHAEL'S FANS! THE WAR HAS COME!! DON'T LET MICHAEL DOWN!!

Good luck to you guys.. vote for Michael!! I want to but I can't because I live outside the US
