First of all - JUDGIN' IS NOW CLOSED
If you haven't yet sent your final results, then you've missed the boat - maybe next time you'll be faster on the draw...
The results are currently being discussed at an undisclosed location and we're trying to determine the order in which you will each be stalked.

I'm not sure how this contest's judging is being done, but I at least hope there are several judges per category who are judging EVERY song in it.
Easy - Here goes:
Round one:
All judges listen to all submissions and nominate ten entries to move on to round two. The nominations are totalled up and the ten tracks that recieve the most, go on to round two.
Round Two:
Each judge is asked to put the finalists in order from best to last.
The top entries are fed into a spreadsheet and points are assigned based on the judges' results. The number one spot on each judges list is assigned 10 points, number two gets 9 points and so on down to the tenth place entry which is assigned 1 point.
The scores are ADDED up in the spreadsheet and the data is sorted to produce a tentative order.
Final Pass:
The final order is looked at by a special panel of judges (the members change for each MAC) and any needed changes to the final order are discussed and made. An example of why this might be necessary would be to determine the final order in case of ties.
That's how it's currently being done -
We're presently in the Final Pass stage but the winner has definitely been established.
I'll give you a hint - it wasn't me.
That's all I can say for now.
