Major and Indie categories will be decided by a combination of fan voting and ballots casted by Musiqtone staff and heads and a special panel of random music executives, industry personnel, and indie music acts.
Official ballots may or may not swing vote totals towards another but in categories in which it is indeed close on fan voting, the official ballots may guarantee a swing. The formula will be explained later.
Formula- uses the multiplier formula. For example, Kelly Clarkson captures 8 ballots, thus in first place. her ballots are multiplied by 500 and then added to the vote total from the fan votes. In some cases, especially the close categories, this may be enough for a second-place finisher in the fan voting to win the category by virtue of the ballot vote.
In the event that two acts capture the same amount of ballots, the tiebreaker goes to the act with the least amount of votes.
If an act gets 0 ballots, then act does not qualify for multiplier.
Welcome to the 3rd annual Musiqwards! This is where we honor the best in music this year in 2007! More votes than ever before were casted and more official ballots were casted than ever before as well!
Now the moment of truth: The results
The results will show 3 things:
1. Total fan votes
2. Ballots captured
3. Total votes combining fan votes and the ballot vote multiplier
Results are sorted by total votes. Winner denoted in red. Ballot vote-getter denoted in blue if not winner.
There will be "ceremony" congratulating the winners tentatively scheduled February 9 at 9 pm ET on Musiqchat. Details to come later!
