When %75 of judges only judge 1-2 contests a year there is no data that can be relied on. And if there was, what's the goal? The creator of the current system says that it wasn't designed to eliminate TOD or TOA's. Then what's the purpose? What's the problem that this is supposed to be a solution to?
Anything is a better idea than seating by scoring average. The southwest shuffle was still better than that.
The issue is a small handful of ****ty judges. We had one last weekend in montana. Some lady that had declared herself the best outdoor cook in the country and everyone else's bbq sucked, wrote everyone worthless comment cards and gave us bad scores. Granted it didn't matter, there were only 4 tables but rest assured, this idiot will be judging again.
We got 2 comment cards, and neither of them seemed to make much sense. Don't know which table she was (I'm guessing your pork table?). I don't have the scoresheets here, I'll have to look later.
If it's the same as our chicken table, that was the worst one.
