Changes

During the casting stage, each jury member was able to give a contestant from zero to three points. To get into the re-call and later into the Workshop, the contestant had to earn eight points.

"Workshop"

During the Workshop phase, the point system continued. The groups are judged as one and needed to earn eight points to proceed into the next round.
