CBS has updated their popularity poll. I can understand how guidos are at 19%. And I believe them when they show that Momily has 88%, the lawyers have 75%, and Frank and Marguerita have 79%. But what moron computed Drew and Kevin's score? I can't believe they dropped from 89 or whatever they were (somewhere up there) all the way down to 53%!! I think we need to get moving and get them back up into the 80s while pushing guido as close to 10% as we can.

That totally stinks. The Guidos HAVE to be voting for themselves!
Here is what I think has happened- the lawyers and F&M were both in the high 60's- it looks like
almost 30% of Drew & Kevin's fans have moved and split between the other 2.
Things will change again now that N&E are gone!

I suspect some people do not think K&D can win, and are de-camping over to the other 2 teams.

OK----lets get on this PEOPLE!!!!!!

I wouldn't worry too much about it, I think the same thing happened to the grandparents and it seems like it was just a mistake. Car, I think you're misinterpreting the poll, voting 10 for one team will not decrease the ratings for others. I think it's just a strict average. You vote 1 to 10 for each team and their score is the average number of all the votes for that team. Personally I've been voting 10 for all the remaining teams and 1 for the Guidos.

OK, I know I am stupid, but if the Lawyers and F&M went up a combined average of 30% and the Frats went down 30%...if there is 100% available, the 30% that used to go to the Frats is now going to the other 2 teams...right?

You're not stupid, they just don't explain their poll well. There isn't 100% available. It's possible that everyone could have 100% as their rating (except for guidos). All the poll does is take all the votes each team gets, adds each their points up and divides by the number of voters. This gives the percentage. It would be more accurate to say that the teams get an average score. Drew and Kevin have a score of 5.3 right now. Guidos have 1.9. Does this help at all or have I confused you even more.

never mind...

Oh wait....I think I just got it! So you are saying that 100 people voted a 5 for Kevin and Drew, right?

I think Kevin and Drew's popularity may have dropped after episode 8 because they did not help Emily and Nancy at the Taj Mahal.
