Close one....but I have a judging suggestion....how about we implement a rule similar to that used in sporting competitions....i.e. the best and worst scores for each round are removed from the scores that count.....I was just looking at the posted scores for each round and occasionally there's a very low (as in inconsistent with the other judges) mark or a very high mark, which could obviously, like an anomalous result in an experiment, make a huge difference....

Well done to the Xmen though.....and a week per theme is definitely a good idea  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Teams are looking nice & even so far. We could use a couple more judges.


Mic: would you drop the high and low from each judge, after all rounds, or the high and low from each round out of all judges?

That sounds like an interesting and effective method of scoring. As does doing the average score, maybe a mix of the two methods. :-?

By the way, I didn't have time to vote on the fourth round, if it explains why you both got 0 lol.

Close one....

Yes, it was!

Just so you all know, I have an Excel chart set up with individual scores. What is plainly clear to me is that there was major improvement from both sides as the contest progressed. In terms of inconsistency, I don't see it in my scores. What made the difference was someone not submitting a shot.

Is it possible for me to move to Team X? I've recently got my sim running like a charm, and it's quite beautiful!
