DialIdol & Fan Poll Discussion for DWTS **POSSIBLE SPOILERS**

[moflan]

Raw scores show Erin leading, then Evan, Nicole, Chad at the bottom.

I hope raw scores translate well into real scores.

raw scores showed Niecy leaving last week - I'm a record keeper - I wish I had recorded the raw scores against who actually left that week, and also kept a tally of the B2 throughout the season.

anders, go to my chart! I did the very thing that you asked. The only week that it was accurate was when Jake was eliminated. Niecy had higher votes than Chad last week on DI, but she was booted.

You can go back through the weeks on DI. I'd be curious as well, but I never really trust DI's scores either way.

I don't trust DI, either. I miss vote #1 I checked the first 3 weeks; when Buzz got booted, he was leading in raw numbers, and when Aiden went, he was middle of the pack. I didn't look through the rest, but that site isn't known for being overly accurate.

This week, per DI raw numbers
1st Erin/Maks 377 votes
2nd: Nicole/Derek
3rd: Evan/Anna
4th Chad/Cheryl 71votes

At 10:30 pm last night those votes were registered and never changed.

[anders332]

then why do we bother with DI??? It doesn't even take into consideration online voting, which I would think would be the preferred method - it is for me.....all 5 votes done within 2 minutes.

thanks veg - I thought Niecy had the lowest raw scores - my bad.

Actually i was surprised today when driving, the radio dj was talking about DialIdol and said looks Like Erin could be going home according to DialIdol. I know its not very accurate. More people must check it, and read the site than we think.

DI measures different ways. The first page has her in last and going home. That is where the DJ got that from. The raw numbers has her in first and safe. DI is very unpredictable and doesn't account for Internet votes.

Can someone explain how Erin can have 377 to Chad's 77 and be in last place? I don't understand raw numbers. How does that work?
