Fix!
Auntie Beeb definitely "fixed" it tonight
Craig (as rubbish as he is) probably got the highest public vote tonight - if he wasn't in the top 3 i'll sell my house and live off peanuts Beeb obviously couldn't stand the controversy and decided to arbitrarily dump Craig out Always wondered why they dont disclose the way the public vote - there's no plausible explaination other than making it possible to rig the vote - as they did tonight |

His story has been "get me to Blackpool"....he got there so I think many supporters would have thought their job was done.
Personally I think he was out the moment Zoe went. Least surprised I've been about someone going out all series. |

Even if he got the top vote he would only have had 10 points and could still have been in the dance off. It would all depend on where the others were in terms of public vote. I dont believe he did get top vote but if anything ensured he went this week it was having no tied scores on the leaderboard so that the person at the bottom got 1 point and not 3 or 4 as in previous weeks.

Yup....generally once there's a shock exit the voters change their tune and get rid of the percieved worst.

If it is I'm sure he didn't get the highest but I wouldn't be surprised if he got a middling-high public vote. |

The truth is - if Auntie Beeb wasn't rigging the votes - they would declare the public vote and rule out 'speculation' - there is no other possible reason Anyone can see that too . |

If they revealed the weekly vote it could influence further voting.

There are generally three categories of dancers, not very good, ok and good. No-one really minds what order the not very good dancers go in and if there is a particularly lovely/ funny one they will be kept in for longer Around half-way you will end up getting an ok dancer leaving before the rubbish ones have all gone. This makes everyone who like the good and ok dancers vote more and makes the supporters of the not very good think twice before voting, leading to the most rubbish dancer leaving in the next show. I actually felt that John Sargeant would have been voted out in either the show he withdrew in or the one after because the joke would have been over so there wasn't actually any point in him leaving. |

To me, the most interesting part of last night was the fact that there were no tied scores.
On the SCD forums all week some mathmeticians have been debating the tied scores favouring the weakest dancers and some complaints were made to the BBC and lo and behold, last night, no tied scores at all and the best dancers were not in the dance off. Did the judges cotton on to the flaw in the voting system or was it pure coincidence that there was not one tied score? |

I don't know it was a fix.....
But I am although I liked him glad Craig has gone.... BUT wasn't it funny that after more then one draw on the leaderboard each and every week this week there wasn't one......so the bottom couple did have 1.....interesting. |

I think this is a good point. It definitely would influence the voting.
Here's good one - If people **know** (not speculate) that particular couple aren't being supported - they might support them! taaa daaa |

Tied scores are less likely now there are fewer couples.
