What is Total Control?

Everyone who has ever participated in various competitions met with such problems as the objectivity of the evaluation of works and, at times, the frank fraud of voices that are conducted on paper carriers and are often lost, spoiled, sometimes even intended. This not only creates a problem in the calculation of votes, but also does not allow participants of such contests, which often pay contributions for participating in competitions, to objectively understand the weaknesses in their work.

I, Dmitriy Tatuazhev, with my team, have developed a new voting method that will exclude closed ratings and vote rigging in any beauty industry competitions.

Total Control is a system of objective, transparent voting in the beauty industry competitions, created in order to provide an independent, unbiased assessment of the participants' work.

All ratings are published at once during the judges voting and are available publicly on the Total Control website.
Also, the ratings are broadcast in the hall (on the screen or projector) where the championship / tournament takes place.

Principle of the system

The whole essence of the system is reduced to several points:

• Unified methodology for assessing performance
• Exclusion of communication between contestants and judges during the event
• Availability of rezults immediately after the judge's assessment
• The exclusion of knowingly low and high ratings (Olympic voting system)

Voting and evaluation of work

Participants:

• Participants register with TOTAL CONTROL
• Each participant is assigned a model / dummy for work that is also registered in the TOTAL CONTROL system
• The features of the model are preliminarily evaluated (for example, in permanent make-up - the type of skin), which affects the final estimate (for example, if the model has problematic skin, the system increases the estimate in the larger direction).
• If the model is provided by a participant, the final score is corrected by the system
• Also during the competition, auditors are allowed to monitor the situation at the participant's workplace, they can also influence the final evaluation, but to a lesser extent than the judges
• The start time of the competition is fixed

Judges:

• All judges are given an electronic tablet with TOTAL CONTROL installed
• Prior to the evaluation, the judge fixes the end time of the participant's work.
• All judges are segregated from each other, distributed in the apartments and evaluate the work of the participants.
• For the duration of the competition judges are prohibited from using communication devices (phones, tablets, etc.)
• Identification of the model during voting occurs by reading the encrypted QR code of the judge's tablet.
• The judge assesses each zone according to the indicated criteria on the 10 point system, which are prescribed in the methodological manual for the specific assessment area.
• A judge may change the rating several times before confirming the selected evaluation. Further, the assessment can not be changed.

System:

• After passing through the model of all the judges, the system cuts off 2 scores: the highest and the lowest and uses the remainder to search for the average arithmetic
• The system calculates based on additional parameters (Skin, Workplace Cleanliness, etc.)
• All data and an evaluation calculation example are published on several Internet resources to ensure the cybersecurity of the data.
• To prevent fraud scores, a video of each of the judges is posted on videohostings

Controversial results:

• In case of controversial assessments, when 2 or more ratings in the same voting zone are identical, the best result is the one that is performed in a shorter time
