Bottom Two - scores or voting only?

After reading the comments (I haven't yet been able to watch the videos, but know the scores) I am confused.

People keep saying Isha should be have been in the bottom two as she did not perform but wasn't she saved because of the votes?

I have noticed this in the past episodes too, votes take precedence over Judges scores - take any low scored performances - some of those contestants are still in the show - if it was 50% scores and 50% votes then technically speaking they should have been out already (including Isha, this week, as there was no veto given previous week). But Rashmi who has mostly always scored high and in the 25-30 range has always been in the bottom two😕. And Sushil, too, was in the show even when he scored the lowest and was Saved by the voting. How?

This leads me to believe that it's not 50-50, votes account for more than judges scores

Unless, they had added Week 12 and Week 13 scores (as there was no elimination in wk 13) and then did the 50% scores and 50% votes. It might make sense then (keyword being 'might'):
Week 12 + Week 13 (out of 120)

Gur: 53+55 = 108
Ish: 60+0 = 60
Bha: 48+48 = 96
Ras: 52+54 = 106
Kar: 48+56 = 104
Rit: 46+57 = 103
but if it was just Week 13 scores then it doesn't😕 because then Isha would have scored 0, at least in Week 12 she had 60 so that could have helped her when everything was combined together (example: Jayati's elimination over Sushil, Gia's elimination over Shibani and Karan, Shibani's elimination over Gurmeet and Karan, Darsheel's elimination over Bharti).

p.s. only used Rashmi and Isha as an example, this topic is NOT about Rashmi being in bottom two (previous episodes) or Isha not being in Bottom two. I am trying to make sense of the JDJ5 rules and how they are or aren't applied in practice

p.p.s. does anyone know where the JDJ5 rules are explained, as in offically?

Aji, as the other member said they did combine the scores and the votes from Week 12 and 13.

But when it comes to JDJ, none of our formula for elimination is going to work cuz we do not know what is actually happening behind the curtains. Whose going to fetch the most TRP and votes become precedence in any reality shows. When it comes to money, anything and everything is possible.

So don't scratch your head when it comes to the show, cuz anything unexpected is expected with reality shows.

agreed...

from the beginning it hardly happened that contestant with lowest score got eliminated...so it may be possible that elimination happens based on vote only...

^ that's what I thought. They should be more open about this whole elimination thing. I mean, like they should say how many votes each person got and then people like me, who like to see actual proofs and do the calculations, are satisfied. It would also give the show a bit more prestige, I think.

but thank you for everyone's (plo_98, -chandramukhi-, tastahnin) input. So I am guessing then there is no official posting of JDJ5 rules anywhere.

@ bold, Even if such stats are given out, you think the numbers can't be faked, they can provide any numbers, but still we can't really be sure if there is any truth to it. There were some reality shows where the votes were mentioned, but who's to say they weren't tempered with for the sake of TRPs. So for me I can't trust them with any stats either, they will do what has been scripted or pre planned, whether it means making an undeserving candidate a winner for the sake of higher TRPs. Anything can be manipulated to keep these numbers soaring.
