Eh I've given up on trying to work out a voting system that isn't a hassle, Top3 and Scoring work for me, but I'm not sure I'll be around for much longer anyway, not going to stick to a forum just for a bi weekly splice comp xD

Going off the tradition (Because monkey's can't be creative) it should end either on Sunday or Monday, depends on you timezone. Whoever first made a splice comp deemed that voters needed an entire week to vote xD

I don't like Obama, Bush was better~
Wait, are we talking about president jokes or actual politics?

In regards to Obama (semi-serious)
Not in the US, don't care~

I think the thing with Obama is that he made a flashy entrance, outperforming the other veteran(?) candidates and making a great initial impression, but after the initial black president hype passed he just sank to being a regular politician, and then when he couldn't be as great as he said he'd be (nothing new with politicians there) the public began pointing out his flaws and shortcomings which in turn led to the general attitude that Obama = bad.

@Hatless
Good point, Websites that act as third parties will probably go off IP address instead of accounts, (And frankly no one wants to sign up to another site just to vote) So I'm not fussed over the account thing, but people might vote once from home, once from work, and once from a friends house etc. And those of us who aren't internet dunces probably know about something called a proxy xD

Personally I'm completely behind you on the effort thing. One of the main reasons I threw a hissy fit was because Pie said it was too complicated and locked the thread tongue.gif When it's not really complicated at all. But we're good now, we're both on the negotiating table... right? xD

Might be an idea to think about a few voting systems this week and hold a poll on what the current voter pool think.

Well I did consider that and a few others, but each has their flaws.

Current System:
One vote polls are crap, if we had a huge voter pool (say 50) it's be more reasonable, but FESh is sort of a small community now xD

Rating System
Leads to too much conflict. For example in the current poll someone might give Ed's entry 0. Saying it's not a valid entry. And that'd lead to spriters quitting the competition pissed off. It's probably the most in-depth and useful, but from experience it causes too much trouble.

Top 3.
This one's probably the safest to go with, though I also found that less people tend to vote when this system is adopted. People seem to like making quick votes. Bang bang and bang = Done. This system requires them to scroll up and down recording names, and placing their top 3 in a ranking order which seems to turn off the lazy people.

Multichoice Thumbs up/down
Was the one I wanted to try, but as I ranted above, doesn't work >_<
Trying to see if I can get around it via a third party site atm.

Yay throwing a tantrum made my voice heard xD
Credit goes to the Lion King/Queen~

Ahem... Anyway I've been trying to work it out myself and let me just say straight up....
**** Jcink is incompetent >_> Apparently Jcink doesn't support polls that allow multiple choices to be made despite the fact that it's been raised as a wanted feature as earlier as 2007. They just keep saying "We'll put it in... soon"

Basically what I was thinking was a tick the box if it's good, leave it blank if you don't like it type thing. Eg

Whats your favorite color?
[X]Red
[ ]Blue
[ ]Green
[ ]Yellow
[X]Purple
[X]Pink

Type thing in poll format, surely you've seen them around?

But seeing as how that's not possible I'll have to think of something else >_> F'ing Jcink Hatless's idea works, but I was hoping for something which wouldn't require much effort, since voting isn't important to most people and needs to be kept simple for people to vote.

~~~
Honestly though, no multichoice polls? I could have sworn I was using them 3 years ago on Jcink but apparently they've never been implemented.... strangeness.
