| The Vote Troubadour's voting system is relatively easy. Everyone gets a voting slip and a pencil. This voting slip has the names of all the musicians, placement boxes from 1-6 and a place where they can write down commentary. After the first part of the show, we collect all the voting slips and the winners are chosen through a mathematical process. Each Juror has 1/3 of the vote. So, Juror #1 (1/3), Juror #2 (1/3) and the Audience (1/3). Using a simple Excel Spreadsheet, all the placements are entered into the Artist's column. The numbers are then added up and the Artist who has the lesser number is the winner. For example, let say you and I are playing. There are 3 people in the audience. The audience thinks you are the better Songwriter and place you as #1 and me as #2. Those placements are entered into the respective columns and added (see Example #1). We then find the placements for the audience vote. The lesser number is the audiences pick as first place. So in our example, your in placement #1 and I am in second place (see example #2). Juror#1 likes you and Juror#2 thinks I'm the best. We then put all the placements together and add them up. Whoever has the lesser number wins (see example #3). The lesser number reflects that you had more people thinking that you were #1 . So you're the winner. ;-) If there is a tie, the Audience's pick is the winner |
