American Idol Scorecard - Top 12

IDOL 10: TOP 12

The above link takes you to Google Docs. To make sure the formatting remains in its original form, I suggest clicking on 'File' and 'Downloading original' to open up the original Word document. You will know the formatting is correct if the headings (Vocal Ability, Song Choice, etc) are on their sides in a vertical fashion.

American Idol Scorecard - Top 13

Last week, I added links to scorecards (for the Top 24) I created and use to comment on the American Idol performances.  I have decided to continue putting them online for anyone to download and print for the time being.

IDOL 10: TOP 13

The above link takes you go Google Docs. To make sure the formatting remains in its original form, I suggest clicking on 'File' and 'Download original' to open up the original Word document. You will know the formatting is correct if the headings (Vocal Ability, Song Choice, etc) are on their sides in a vertical fashion.

I have added some new sections to the bottom of the scorecard now that we are in the Top 13. All of the headings are: Theme, My Vote(s), Bottom 3 Prediction, Bottom 3, Elimination Prediction, Eliminated. Last year, I added the 'Bottom 3 Prediction' because I found myself over the course of the season making predictions not just for who would be eliminated, but also for who would end up in the bottom 3 as well.

And as always, there is room to write in each contestants name, song title, comments, and grade them based on their voice, song, personality and stage presence.

American Idol Scorecards - Top 24

For those of you who like to keep track of what songs the contestants sing and how well they perform, I am putting online American Idol Scorecards. I first started using scorecards back in season 4 when the American Idol Magazine began. After the magazine ended, I created my own, in a similar fashion to the ones found in the mag, altering them slightly to fit my preference. Over the years, I have continued to make changes to them to suit what I want to use them for.

I'm not sure how many other people do this as well, but I thought I would put online the scorecards I created for anyone to download, print, and use as they wish:

Idol 10: Top 24 (Boys)

Idol 10: Top 24 (Girls)

The above links take you to Google Docs. I suggest downloading them in their original file so as to make sure the format remains the same (usually by clicking on 'File' and 'Download original'); you will know the formatting is correct if you see the headings (Vocal Ability, Song Choice, etc) on their sides In a vertical fashion.

There is room for you to write in the contestant's names, song titles, comments, and give each performance a rating based on four categories (the point system in the document is what I began using last year; change them as you see fit). At the bottom, you will see space to write in the theme, who you vote for and how much, your predictions, and who ends up either advancing or getting eliminated.

So far, I only have the scorecards up for the Top 24 (next week). Let me know if you want me to continue putting these online and I will.
