    welcome to the new posters over here, thankyou to everyone thats voting !!
    Hope we've done enough to keep them in, think the judges scores might just have aggravated the fans and made them vote even more :D
    I think I sent in 235 votes, was voting the whole time the lines were open!!!!

    Me too! :D

    Words fail me about the scoring :mad::mad::mad: That was most definitely not the worst dance of the evening :confused::confused: I personally loved it! ;):D

    It must be so disappointing for Ben, especially as he seemed to put in so much hard work and effort. Kristina looked very angry on his behalf :eek:

    I can understand Kristina's feelings, but she is getting peoples backs up by going on about the undermarking, whether she is right or not....but have to say Twitter has gone mad about their score!
    If they get through, hopefully Ben won't feel down about it, and it'll bring out his competitive spirit to fight for his place :) He need's the Tango next, to get his teeth into!!
    Keeping everything crossed...soooooo nervous now!!!!

    There is never any logic to the scoring - hidden agenda? Not-so-hidden agenda? Kristina seems so upset and baffled. I feel so sorry for them both at the moment.

    I feel the same - very very worried that TPTB are manipulating the scoreboard so Ben will be in the B2 :mad::mad:

    We don't know how the judges' scores are as they state "added to the public's votes" - multiplied by something or other depending on how many vote?

    I hope this isn't the case and praying that he's not!

    does this help?
    After the telephone and online voting has closed, the viewers' votes will be collated and independently verified. The couples will be ranked based on the total number of viewers' votes received. The couple with the highest number of viewers' votes will be awarded a number of points equal to the number of couples competing that evening. So, for example, if seven couples are competing, the points awarded to the highest ranked couple (based on the viewers' total score) will be 7, the couple with the second highest score from the viewers will receive 6 points and so on in the same downward sequential order.
    In the event of a tie, where two or more couples obtain the same number of points, the couple below those in the tie will be awarded one point below the points awarded to each of the couples in the tie. So, for example, if two couples obtain the same rank and obtain 7 points each, the couple immediately below them will be awarded 6 points. The scoring of all other couples underneath will follow in the same descending order.
    Once the judges' scores and viewer’s votes have been combined, if there is a tie between any couples, then the couple in the tie with the highest number of viewer votes will be deemed to be ahead on the leaderboard.
    In the unlikely event that there is a tie in the judges' scores and the public phone and online vote for the two or more couples at the bottom of the leaderboard the judges will confer and decide which of the couples to save and which to put through to the dance-off. As there are four judges, if there is a tie in the judges' vote head judge Len Goodman will have the casting vote.

    I'm wondering why TPTB want Ben out when he's one of the biggest draws. Something has changed in this past week towards him (or maybe Kristina).

    I can't see that it explains how the judges' scores are added to the viewers' votes, KA. They would have to be equated, but at the moment I can't see how. Is it multiplied by the total public votes and then divided by a percentage of .....something? My brain's cottonwool at present. Any mathematicians out there?

    well the way I read it is 50 -50, so for example the dancer that is top with the judges gets 8 this week and say they are bottom with the public they get 1 which would = 9, so if the bottom dancer with the judges gets 1 and is top with the public then gets 8 they would be tied on scores...does that make sense??
