Huzzah! I'll be honest, I don't really understand how the scoring works, but is it fair to say Curio finds himself in an unassailable lead? Edit - and heartfelt kommiserations to Kern. |

| Author: | Curiosity [ Wed Sep 09, 2020 14:46 ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Battle of the Songs: - Tables and Results |
Nope. You keep 2/3 of your most recent score, and 1/3 of the previous one, so effectively we will have the following boosts to our next round scores: Curio - 28 Findus - 16 Jem - 15 So I should not be eliminated, but if, for instance, you come first and I come last, you will take the lead (46 vs 40). |

No chance Curio will be eliminated next round, as he only posts up obvious crowd pleasers to grab all the cheap votes. |

It turns out I can't count, as we're obviously going to need a round 9, and there are only 8 rounds on my table, looks like I will need to add another column. I will publish a full unreduced table at the end to see where everyone would have stood. I might also do a few end of season just for fun polls (what was the best theme? What was Jem's best song? What was MaliA's worst song? that sort of thing) and reveal what songs I would have picked for each theme |

I think it would be a tie if that happened. I’m happy enough to make it winner takes all though. Or two songs each. Or basically whatever. |

I still think each should contribute two songs but only their lowest scoring should count. |

Kern wrote: I still think each should contribute two songs but only their lowest scoring should count. I like the idea, but I am not 100% that it would make the competition fairer or more interesting. Let's look at the possible outcomes: 1) A A B B 2) A B B A 3) A B A B Or the reverse with B winning instead of A, in 2 of those situations A will win if we take in all of the scores or just the lower scores, however in option 2: ABBA that would give the win to B under your method, but under add up the totals it depends on how much the individual songs score. Which I think gives a bit more jeopardy. I hope that makes sense? |
