You mentioned the number of times your song has been played. According to Brian the number of song plays has nothing to do with the number of times a song has come up for judging. It indicates ONLY the number of times someone has sought out your song and played it.
Ourstage does not have transparency in the judging. Brian says folks would get upset if they found out one genre was getting judged a lot and another wasn't. Well I can understand that There are some genre I would never judge. Because I just don't care for the music or do not understand it.
It may be fair it may not, but until there is a way to know if all the songs get the same chance I'm not holding my breath.
It very well may be that every person gets a totally different set of songs to judge. That you may not see a song at all but someone else may see a song a dozen times. And you may see a song a dozen times that someone else may never see.
I don't know how to do the math that tells you how many possible combination's there are. but it seems that each song in 100 songs would have 99 battles so 990 battles, or 900 battles? seems right to me. Either way who has time to do that? And most Genres have way more than that.
