The songs that qualify for the Top 200, take their average (Points scored divided by number of posters who played i.e 200 / 40 = 5.000) into their respective Semi Final.

 

Each Semi Final consists of 50 songs mixed up from the various decades for you to vote on. Where in the 4 semi Finals their average Points score will be multiplied by two and added to the Decade Final scores; where the 50 Highest Scores will make the Final where the scores will be added to the average score in the Final multipled by 3.

 

i.e:

 

Decade Round (Average Score *1) + Semi Final (Average Score *2) + Final (Top 50 only) (Average Score *3) = Grand Total
