Jop Tournament Round 1, FITE 5

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I have a day off today, which is grebt, but I forgot to note down the various FITEs for today's poll. So no poll. EXCEPT! I can remember the very next one - because it is an MONSTER.

So this is the televised centre court pick-of-the-round tie, if you like.


[Poll #917645]


Crikey! Maybe this afternoon I will do the rules for the League Of Pop. Or maybe I will go and get a haircut.

So the group with the highest ranking total sent its winner up against "Into The Groove".

Wouldn't that be "lowest ranking total"? Or am I not understanding you?

I presume he means "highest ranking" in the sense of numerically highest. i.e. a group with a total ranking of 350 has less liked songs than a group with total ranking of 300, but has a "higher ranking". So that "highest ranking total" = worst group. That is how I interpreted it.

Yes, highest numerically = weakest group. Sorry for confusion!

I think I get it: something that's ranked 33 has more "strength" than something ranked 64, hence the lower number is the stronger. But the phrase "highest ranking total" is totally confusing, since 32 is higher ranking than 64. I presume, though, that Tom intends "highest ranking total" to mean "highest numerical total."
