I can see this happening every night if Len continues to undermark K&A to that extent!
It has to be wrong for the Judges' scores to take precedence on the tour when they don't on the main show?
No, on the audience and judges' vote combined - the audience vote giving a score just as the judges' vote does, like on the main show. So yes, they can be tied.
Horrible scoring system, effectively cheating the public. I'll be interested to see if it's announced and explained clearly enough to be unchallengable...
No me neither, I don't think it's fair on the people who pay to vote. I'll certainly be booing Len if he gives Kara a 6 again!
If its a 3 way tie the public vote has to reverse the judges order. If they went with the public vote Matt will always win for being third best with the judges , with the judges marks deciding its going to be Pamela winning - because they seem still to be overmarking her and undermarking Kara .
Interestingly its the reverse of the sitaution with Rachel where the tour public vote ensured the best dancer won the tour wheras the actual viewers vote had gone for Tom.
I did'nt think the judges scores were taken into account on the tour !!!! Find it highly unlikely that all three had exactly the same number of votes !!! Very strange
Highly unlikely that 3 couples could have polled exactly the same number of votes.
Zoe gave the distinct impression that it was based on audience voted.....
I think I've got it on video. I'll upload so you can watch...
Pamela & James - 8 Judges + 6 Audience = 14
Kara & Artem - 7 Judges + 7 Audience = 14
Matt & Aliona - 6 Judges + 8 Audience = 14
Thus all three tied. But I'm surprised that Matt scored more with the audience than Kara & Artem who by all accounts got the best reaction.
Maybe it isn't 'fair' that the judges have the final say but it surely isn't any fairer for a few individuals to cancel out the votes of others who have also paid to see the show but are more conservative in their voting habits?
It's one thing to be supportive of one couple or another but multi votes is a bit extreme, I think - plus all it does it line the Tour Operators' (and Craig's as director ) pockets.
'Rounding up or down to the nearest 10 or 100' .....thats stupid if one couple gets 1 more vote than another then they have won the vote surely.........
The very first tour was scored the same as on the show judges scores and public vote but since then the judges scores were for guidance only...allowing Julian Clary to win some shows and Kenny to win every Scottish show.
I think its perhaps time to do away with the 'winning' aspect on tour and just go to enjoy the dancing......I think that the shows organisers underestimate how seriously people can take it. However if they are going to include a vote people are paying for then it should be done fairly and correctly.
It'll be intertesting to see if the Tour follows the pattern set by the series with the top 3 being interchangeable for the win each show.
The Tour shouldn't be manipulated in any way though considering people are paying hugely for tickets and then votes.
I would have said that a ticket bought entitles you to 1 free vote.
I guess the tour operators don't really care if people take it too seriously- just means more money for them. I guess they might be thinking about what will happen when they do go and see it?
And I feel kind of sad about what's happened with Colin... I can't believe he has lost so much talent as to somehow be worse than Tina and Patsy :eek:
He was the one I was most looking forward to, so now I'm half wondering whether to give away my ticket
As to the voting system, it seems a shame that the judges get the final say over the public, but I actually prefer the system where the judges scores combine with the audience vote. It should just be that the decision should be based on the public vote in the event of a tie.
The individual marks awarded to couples with regards to overmarking/undermarking is always going to be a matter of opinion. The only thing I would have said is that Artem and Kara had about a month to tweak their A/S to include more in hold and they could perhaps change things very slightly over the course of the tour. Len also could potentially relax the rules a little as it is the tour - on previous tour DVD's there are obvious lifts which have been overlooked, Len could perhaps consider overlooking the lack of ballroom hold as there are other bits in a hold which I thought could have been considered acceptable.
I can't believe after paying to see the show, that you then have to pay to vote and then even if your favourite wins the audience vote, it may not matter as the opinions of three people who are being paid to judge, have precedence over the paying public's preferences, Utterly disgraceful!! :mad:.
The judges basically saying Colin's Quickstep was the second worst dance of the night? I really don't see it.
