After throwing out the highest and lowest there a re seven judges scores to determine the GOE.
If 1 judge out of seven gives +1 and the rest give 0, the average GOE is .142857.
If 2 judges give +1, the average is .285714.
If 3 judges give +1, the average is .428571
If 4 judges give +1, the average is .571428.
If 5 judges give +1, the average is .714285.
If 6 judges give +1, the average is .857142.
Note that all of these average GOE’s have the same six decimal digits, and in the same order, just starting at a different place.
Challenge. This works for a panel of n = 7 judges. Find another panel size n for which this also works.
N = 17 works. Can you find another?
