    I've added a formulated Thru column
    - meaning the song is guaranteed 1st or 2nd place:

    thanks Bruce, that's much better

    Thanks. I've changed Votes to Ballots on sheet, and dedicated a cell
    (see top left) to number of songs for the Round-Group (used in points,max,1st,2nd...,thru formulas, perhaps enabling this model to be
    used for prelim rounds that have 5 songs)

    https://RWC-0.tinytake.com/media/1580721?filename=1702569505465_Obscurities+Ballots.png
    (the 8 at top left is # of players - used in the min,max formulas)

    3. Yes Yes Yes - The Cashmeres- 19

    Carl's Burnette could take it all after finishing first here, 3 pts. ahead of my Fats

    And there's at least five other Johnny Burnette songs even better than
    this.

    Carl's Burnette could take it all after finishing first here, 3 pts. ahead of my Fats as Carl and i head to the FINAL FOUR. The last time Diane had 2 records in the same group, last round, they both advanced. This time it went the other way as both of
    her records were eliminated. The Cashmeres was third and the McCracklin was last. Great runs by both of them, making the top 8 for the year.
    ----------
    When I woke up this morning and saw the group I knew exactly what would
    happen. Nice to have gotten this far, though, especially with that
    Cashmeres record which I never heard before it popped up in my youtube
    sidebar one day.

    Let me add that from day one I thought "Drinking Wine" was the best song
    in the contest. I should also confess that I can't stand that Fats
    Domino record, never could, but obviously I stand alone with that opinion.

    Yes, the YouTube sidebar is often a resource extraordinaire.
