However I work this, it gets complicated. Using the free votes system (1 per person per day), wouldn’t the participants already get free votes anyway?
In the first Vote-Off, some voters bought large amounts of votes – raising far more money than participants paying for Supporter status would, especially as several of them already have long term Supporter status anyway.
Being free for women participants is a must, but then I’d had to charge for votes for the whole thing to work at all…
