That presents the same problem as just counting votes. The people at the end of the month don't stand a chance. |

And finally: The rolling 30-day total vote count would really, really, really, really stick it to the blitzers. They would actually be helping their intended victim make Top 5. Take that dirty blitzers! Ha! |

Ron - the big question in your maths is what you were using as C. Assuming the average rating on the site is 4 I get a very different picture. |

MugDots2, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for introducing some humour to all this. It was the first good laugh I've had on TD for ages. |

Matthew, when I mentioned TD being abe to KNOW who's doing the unethical voting, I didn't mean that it would be public for everyone to see -- but that they would be able to monitor something like that and remove voting capabilities from someone who does it. The main problem is lack of accountability. Shouldn't we be accountable to someone, even if it isn't public? |

Yahoo: I ran this through Excel and didn't save the sheet. |

But I see your point. Over a greater range the average WOULD go down and would help weight the whole thing more properly. Hence it's being used by IMDB and Amazon. |

I'm gonna run some sample data which might more closely approximate a real-world month-end on TD. In the words of Da Gubner: I'll Be Back! |

Right we would need to start voting on every piece and not just on the ones we think should go into the top 5....(or find the ones we vote on only to be those with a 5) |

...Think Draw like the "highest rated" because the think "most rated" is not fair to the pics done at the end of the month... The problem is "highest rated" is not fair to the pics done at the begining of the month. |

Matthew that does seem a lot more fair. Since if you think of it then we would have to climb instead of only being able to fall. Opposite of some grading systems in schools where the goal is to let you pass/get a good grade. Here the goal is to climb... I agree... that should work. |
