Week 1 of the Blind Auditions is officially over. Hope those of you who have not registered yet to play along will do so by going to the App and signing in or signing up: If you have not seen the Monday or Tuesday night Blind Auditions yet you can do so by going to:
Unlike previous seasons, there are NO iTunes downloads until the Live Shows begin. I will greatly miss seeing who the early charters are, especially when selecting my team.
My wife, observing how pathetic I looked staring at a blank/frozen Voice App home screen while the show was airing, got me the Xfinity Streaming service so I could watch the show “live” (as well as NFL football, etc. etc.). Being able to use the Voice App interactively while the show airs is nice although a bit strange. I watch the show on my iPhone using earbuds and play along using the Voice App on my iPad. I tried doing this the other way around during night 1 but found it too hard to participate on my phone.
69,500 points. (Going to enjoy my #7 national ranking for another week until music mom and merit blow by me!)
eyemamom, Yes— keep all the slots filled on your team, making sure you always have your favorite 3 at the very top and your least favorite 3 at the very bottom.
Well, the app cleared my team and took away all my points. Then, when I went to edit the team, it gave me back the people with the correct number of days, but still zero points. So obviously, I’m not going to be competing with anyone here!
Consolation, go to the home page, click on the menu icon at the very top right. Click on settings, then click on contact us. Send them a message describing the issue. Before doing so, maybe:
Try logging out and back on the App.
Also try logging off and back on your computer/device.
I hope your points get recovered! When you do edit your team, make sure you position the circle images of the artists you are editing directly over one another. Good luck!!
Consolation, were you able to get your points recovered?
I am looking forward to the Blinds tonight, mostly because of Dave Fenley. For me he was the most intriguing male artist when I listened to a long list of artists on YouTube, before season 15 premiered last week. I had not heard of him before watching him on YouTube but he was a past semi-finalist on AGT during season 8 in 2013.
I may have to abandon the app. I filled up all 12 slots as jshain suggested, but now I can’t remember who some of them are. When I added new ones from tonight, I had to replace the existing ones. I started at the bottom, but there may have been some that I shouldn’t have had on the bottom. Very confusing. How many more nights of blinds?
Also, I thought the cute girl in the plaid pants who did not get a chair-turn but made it to the 2nd chance team was horribly off pitch to the point that I covered my ears. Or is that how that song is supposed to sound? Yikes.
musicmom, You can click on menu icon (top right corner), then click on “Watch Clips” and review any past Blind Auditions on The Voice App. Or, you can go to https://www.nbc.com/the-voice, click on “Artists” and watch the earlier Blind Auditions. I like the latter because it is organized by team.
I was hoping Blake would have mentioned that he was really successful with Kyla Jade last season when he was fighting for Kymberli, the artist who closed the show Monday.
I did not change out any of my team after Monday’s show.
Learned recently that Patrique Fortson was a semi finalist on AI Season 2 way back in 2003 when Ruben Studdard and Clay Aitken were the winner and runner up.He spelled his name Patrick back then and he sounds much better now, imo.
I didn’t bother to try to recover my points. Since I don’t tweet, it doesn’t make much difference.
I just watched the show and reviewed the clips. Made some changes. I added Chevel, Dave, and Steve to my team. Also added Anthony, although I am not so sure about him.
I am curious who is getting eliminated from everyone’s teams. For me, Radha is probably my next to go. Then, Sarah and Mercedes. The first guy I might eliminate is Keith. Too similar to Michael and currently on the same team. Next might be Tyke and Patrique. Tyke and Anthony are very similar. A lot of talented older guys this season in all genres.
I eliminated Radha and Mercedes. I added Chevel and Kymberli. I have 96,000 points. I never tweet. I just interact with the app. And try to keep my early picks forever to increase my points.
musicmerit, I seem to be getting more points this season for (a) staying loyal to my “original” team (only switching out Tyshawn after Blind 2) and (b) interacting on the App now that I am streaming the show “live” on Xfinity and not watching back on Hulu the next day. I probably tweeted a little more last season. Obviously getting some points there but not sure how many per tweet.
I don’t feel like my team will hold up very well once the Battles and Knockouts begin. There are other artists I would like to have on my team but don’t want to lose my day counts by changing.
Honestly, I don’t get wanting to participate in a contest. I just watch the show and enjoy the singing.m I cant keep up with the contestants names, which would make it a challenge to play anyway!
I have 153,000 points. I don’t even know who these people are yet. I actually prefer the later rounds when there are fewer contestants to keep track of.
