I got these scores by dividing the number of "likes" by the number of "dislikes" on each performance last Saturday.

The results are as follows:
1 - Matt - 4578 likes/ 126 dislikes = 36.3.
2 - Rebecca - 1542 likes/ 96 dislikes = 16.1.
3 - Paije - 949 likes/ 93 dislikes = 10.2.
4 - Mary - 896 likes/ 95 dislikes = 9.4
5 - One Direction - 1727 likes/ 299 dislikes = 5.8.
6 - Aiden - 1322 likes/ 304 dislikes = 4.3
7 - Katie - 1400 likes/ 483 dislikes = 2.9
8 - John - 410 likes/ 187 dislikes = 2.2
9 - Belle Amie - 548 likes/ 268 dislikes = 2.0
10 - Treyc - 463 likes/ 296 dislikes = 1.7
11 - Cher - 2673 likes/ 1705 dislikes = 1.2
12 - Wagner - 402 likes/ 628 dislikes = 0.6

Interesting that Cher is so low and Katie is quite a bit higher.

Wonder if that will change if she pulls off a ballad on Saturday?

Doesnt bode well for Wagner. If it means anything, which it probably doesnt.

Eh? Why divide? Likes minus dislikes, surely? (And I'm a statistician.)

It ranks the standard of the performance according to viewers rather than popularity.....I think.

dislikes has really nothing to do with it because people can't give negative votes, so i think this order gives a more accurate picture

1 - Matt - 4578 likes
2 - Cher - 2673 likes
3 - One Direction - 1727 likes
4 - Rebecca - 1542 likes
5 - Katie - 1400 likes
6 - Aiden - 1322 likes
7 - Paije - 949 likes
8 - Mary - 896 likes
9 - Belle Amie - 548 likes
10 - Treyc - 463 likes
11 - John - 410 likes
12 - Wagner - 402 likes

So, Treyc, Belle Amie, and Wagner never escape the bottom 4 whichever way you do it.

How about the view?

I think it's more reliable using the subtraction methods as it takes into account that some acts (like Cher) have a big fanbase but also a lot of people that don't like her. I know that it's positive voting only but it's important to take negative views into account too as it can give bad press and affect voting

Agreed. The youtube views come from a lot of teenage girls.

Interestingly that Beiber song that's the most played on youtube would score a 1.6 by the first method on this thread.

you're probably right. the people voting for wagner know he's crap so they probably don't bother looking at his performances again on youtube.

I think the comedy vote will keep him in for another while. my guess is he will last longer than belle amie

That'd because that group that goes after disliking a certain video went after Bieber.

They do and you took what I said in the reverse of what I meant. :sleep:
There are people on the night who vote for the best acts and there are fans for, (example: Mary) outside of Youtube.

If anyone really feels like doing some Maths, they can do this:

(total number of likes/(total number of likes+total number of dislikes)) x view count.

That way we get an more accurate representation of how much the viewcount can translate into fans voting
