Everyone buy Barb boxes!!!

[*mazedsalv**]

It could help. :D

As apparently their way of calculating rating is 1 barb box on is about 5,000 people watching... or something like that.:hugesmile:

[Billy]

um no.

[Brad.]

That's quite an inaccurate way of measuring the ratings, surely?

[President]

Lol, firstly you can't just buy BARB boxes. They're handed out to people who are in a sample.

And secondly, what's the point!? :p

[Chels]

the ratings will not save the show now, it has already been axed.
ahahahaha.

/evil laugh

[*mazedsalv**]

Mwahaha.
I would have expected that from Billy, i knew it would be a negative comment, or a short one , it wasnt a serious thread tbh. Probably just another one of my pointless ones.. bored.

President, I dont know what the point is, but i WANT one, I wonder how they work :/

[*mazedsalv**]

sorry.

Should do, you made me cry. First person to this year, havnt since October, Thanks! :(

[Patrick]

Do they count me as a viewer in the ratings then ? :shocked:

I have A Sky+ HD Box, so does it mean I dont contribute to the ratings if I dont have one of these Barb Boxes?

[Spike]

You can't buy them anyway, and the new sample of people to use BARB boxes for next year have already been chosen (from the test runs its been said ratings for most TV shows will rise just a little next year)
I would like to have one though.

Too late.

And Patrick, they dont take any of us into account.

[Chels]

awww :(

[Patrick]

:shocked: OMG

No Wonder they bloody think the ratings are 1 Million, there could be like 4 Million watching and we wouldnt even know it.

[*mazedsalv**]

Yes but its been the same sample for years, so BB5 averaging 5m, and BB10 averaging 2.4m, with the same sample still means we lost half an average since then.

But BB5 could have been 9m average, and BB10 could have been 4.5m average... we just dont know.
But i heard its about 96% accurate.

[*mazedsalv**]

awww :(

Count to 10 lol...

Statistically the margin of error would be very small - just a few thousand at most. Having a sample of 5000 therefore is no less accurate than a sample of 50,000 or 500,000 for example - so those rolling out such excuses are basically desperate idiots.

[biglover]

On digitalspy.co.uk it said the new system of BARB ratings which kicks off today will see ratings increase! come on CBB
