Skit comp scoring

Just wondering - if anyone is interested - how scores for the skitcomp could be awarded.

To make it easier for anyone to join in at any time during the life of the three month comps (if that's what they are now) should each of the votes count as just one mark?

So - the winner last week got two votes. With the current system that's 10 points and if the leader did the same for the next few weeks they would have thirty or more points which might put people off joining in. But if the winner only got points for the amount of votes they got, the leader would have just two points - and in a couple of weeks could still only have seven or eight. That would mean that somebody could come in with a killer sketch and get 10 votes (and 10 points) instantly.

Just aware that I tend to grind people down a bit :(

Sure, what do other people think? This was the old system, scrapped cos the list was too long, but now it's only a 3-monther this wouldn't be a prob. Let's vote over the cumming week!

I really liked the 10-5-1, if you come first or second you really feel like you're getting somewhere!
