How to calculate points in the VTVGo application

- Conversion rate: 1 heart = 5 points, 1 view = 1 point
- Total votes = hearts * 5 + views
Voting of the journalists
The Council of Journalists consists of renowned journalists in the field of culture and entertainment in Vietnam, carefully selected by the Organizing Committee and invited to vote for the favorite candidates based on the clips of the contest.
How to calculate the voting score of the Press Council:
The journalists' council will receive a list of 18 contestants for the Sao Mai Award 2022 in the National Final Round and 18 clips from the contestants. Each journalist has 3 votes and must vote for at least 1 candidate.
October 3: The Organizing Committee will collect the results of the voting from the Council of Journalists.
How to calculate a candidate's total score
On October 4, 2022, after the Sao Mai 2022 voting portal closes on the VTVGo app, the organizers will calculate each candidate's total score. The contestant with the highest total score is the most favorite contestant.
- Total score of 1 contestant = vote by the audience * 70% + score awarded by the Press Council * 30%.
- How to calculate the conversion points:
=> How to convert points from the audience vote? The candidate with the lowest score will have one point. The score increases according to the position on an increasing scale. The highest score will be 18.
=> How to convert the score of the Council of Journalists? The candidate who received the lowest number of votes from the Council of Journalists has a score of 1. The maximum number of points from the Council of Journalists will be 18.
- In the event that 2 candidates have the same total score and the highest score, the Press Council will vote to decide which contestant wins the Most Favorite Contestant award. If the voting result is still a tie, the contestant with the highest score voted by the audience on the VTVGo application will win the Most Favorite Contestant award. In special cases, the organizing committee will have the right to make the final decision.
