The yellow indicates outliers. They are added to the totals. Only the red highlighted self-votes are not counted.

But yes, organic earth did vote consistently and explained the reasons. Remember, no two ppl respond the same, and some have a lower tolerance for cannabis that isn't medical grade or smokes poorly. Others just use a wider range to grade. There's no reason those outliers shouldn't be included unless the comments don't make sense and don't jive with what others said.

Aaahh, I thought because the total number was red, that it was kicked out. Understood.

these things are subjective, i think the voting looks consistent, but i do think next year we might disallow judges from voting even in the category they enter. it's less fun for entering judges, but it makes the competition even more transparent and honest.

Skip I agree in part but the guy obviously was voting down the competition I mean he gave the Riri cut a 13...what more proof do you need then that unless you think Gaiusmarius can't grow...just playing Gaius.

the sativa pack quality was very high and tastes vary, it was a 4month old crop so yeah i was a bit surprised, but tastes differ in the end and some folks are very strict about small imperfections. i will analyze the votes closer, but as i say, sativa pack was incredibly good over all.

as long as a judge use the same strict standard scoring system on everyone, it won't affect the average.

Um yeah except he didn't vote for his bud so his lowest score is 32 ..not 20, 22 or 13 so yes it did throw the vote off for him
