 IRC Nickname: Gorgemaster Group: Elite Guardian Posts: 9840 Member No.: 3 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 540 | It's preferential voting.... So that means now that I know which person/persons are in bottom place, I go back to the people who voted for them first and re-assign their votes to their second choice. Then knock off the bottom place after that... etc until we have two places left. That takes a while. --------------------    | ||

Because you could do it like 5 different ways, Weight it, most #1's, most top #4's. You don't show us the votes anyways. But cant the current council just choose the way which would choose the 2 that you would want to work with? I mean call me a conspiracty theorist, but this has just too many different possible outcomes from the same raw data. I think we should stick with the "Vote for (insert number of council here) which you like best" because that way it would be simple and we wouldn't have to worry about it. Ever since Stokenut posted about how council elections were rigged in the past it just has me questioning you guys, and how things are run. EDIT: after re-reading and thinking about it, I guess it could work. But it would be much much simpler to just go with the old fashion way. This is just unnecessary work. -------------------- | ||

But I suppose that would make it too easy. --------------------      | ||

But I haven't really thought it through so many not, lol. Might look at it later and see if I can make up a spreadsheet for it. --------------------  | ||
