WhatNotToSing-styled Database for The Voice?

Is anyone on this forum familiar with WhatNotToSing.com? For those of who may not be; What Not to Sing is an incredibly comprehensive database and catalog of every live* American Idol performance that rates each performance (on a scale of 0 to 100) based on reviews from all over the Internet. When I say incredibly comprehensive, I really mean it–it's got so much data packed in there, it's very impressive. 

 

Scrolling through the database aimlessly has been something I've been doing when I was bored, and the thought occurred to me; they've never done something like this for The Voice, right? They've joked about it before, sure, but nothing like that has ever been done for The Voice before. It got me thinking; what if we did something similar? Something not nearly as comprehensive or mathematical, mind you–maybe just a Google Sheets with performance rankings?–but I thought it would be fun if Idolforums had their own WNTS-like database for all of the live performances, at least for this season. Again, not nearly as comprehensive or extensive, but maybe just having people give their scores to all of the performances this season and getting a ranking up for it in a spreadsheet.

 

Would anyone be interested in contributing scores, perhaps? I feel like this could just be a fun little pet project for the forum. 

Here is a link to the ongoing spreadsheet!

When I made the S20 IDF Ratings thread I actually had WNTS in mind. I wish someone would have made a ratings thread every season so we would have a mini WNTS here :(

Mmm, maybe! The thing is that I feel like the ratings thread is a lot more subjective when WNTS is intended to lean more towards objective quality, but that's not a huge downside, to be honest.

Think of it as the extremely biased and messy version of WNTS :haha:

So I decided to make a spreadsheet! This is a huge work in progress, and I'd need serialized objective scores from a lot of people if this is gonna get off the ground at all, so any contributions that anyone would like to make through submitting scores or whatnot would be greatly appreciated!

And a link to a WNTS page that explains how rankings work!
