On the show "Dancing With the Stars" the vote off is decided by combining
the judge's scores with the audience vote to decide who gets voted off and who gets to stay. I would like to know if it is better to pick your favorite disregarding the judges votes OR note who the judges like least and who you like least and then vote for the two people you like next to least and vote for them, doing it this way rather than voting for your favorite which is often the judges' favorite as well. With my strategy I can be fairly certain the judges votes alone will carry the favorites over to next week and by voting for your next to least favorites instead you are more likely to influence your very least favorite gets voted off. Some of my friends like my strategy and others think you should only vote for your absolute favorite without giving any thought at all to your least favorite. This week my least favorites are George Hamilton, Tatum O'Neal, Jerry Rice, and P. Miller. My thinking is to vote for the two whom I think are least likely to make it to next week to help ensure that at least one of them does make it back next week -- doing this instead of voting for my two favorites -- Drew and Stacey -- because with their judge votes of 27 and 29 it's a pretty safe bet they will make it back make even if no one in the audience votes for them. I am asking here because my friends that think I should be voting for the ones I like best and whom they like best too, so they are peeved with my strategy but I think it makes a lot of sense. What to you think? redleg...
