WSL Judging

The common view is the 5 judges should be separate and immune from any external influence. However, it has never been hidden that the head judge makes comments to guide the individual judges on wave scores. The other factor is the highest and lowest scores are cut from the final score average. So, if you were consistently high or low your scores would be consistently excluded and it would be pointless you being there.
(ssshhh... @indo.. you're attempting to blow the lid off a ring of tightly held secrets that rivals the templars. keep those you love close to you. never do anything routinely - predictability will be your downfall.. if you MUST utter these blasphemes at least do so with head bowed and uttering 'luli'.. always 'luli'..)
break it down..

this performance of Veni Veni Emmanuel by New Zealander Haley Westenra is about as good as it gets, having the appropriate sombre pathos - the earliest version of the 'carol' being 15th century French, used in Requiem Mass processions by Franciscan Nuns:

.Coventry Carol is an English lullaby, from a 16th century public nativity play:

..and hate to say it but this cosy, foppish hipster version of Coventry Carol by Sting is probably not very dissimilar to whatever the very first versions might have sounded like..

Sorry i couldn't find any relevant thread to ask this.
But with the whole Toledo-Juilan controversy.
How does the judging panel actually work?
Im assuming they all sit next to each other and can discuss the scores? (with review of footage and compare other waves if in doubt)
If so wouldn't it make more sense if they were all seperated and couldn't communicate so they are basing the score off the criteria without other judges influence?
Yeah you would get more variation in each judges scores but it's the average that matters .
