Photography competition November **VOTE** (take 2)
« on: 28 November 2011, 04:31:59 pm »
Pictures can be reviewed in this thread: http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,840.0.html

This month a different form of voting. Many people say each month that it is difficult to pick one winner, so with this poll you get three votes. You can give them all to the same person, 2 to one person and 1 to another or even give three people 1 vote each.

Let me know what you think :thumbup

Could we possibly have a 'no voting for yourself' rule too? There seemed to be a bit of that going on before?

Unfortunately there is no way to police it as I cannot tell who anyone has voted for :\

Found this one hard to chose between, Nature, Buildings, Winter. In the end I gave all three to one that was Autumn !!!

Could the voting form be made such that it omits the member viewing it?

No, 'fraid not. TBH if people are sad enough to want to cheat then more fool them - it's only to choose the next month's theme!

Think giving everyone 3 votes OK but ot being able to give all 3 to one person, a single person voting for one picture 3 times would be equal to 3 people each voting for a pic once, a bit of an uneven distribution I think.

Anyway I have voted and not for myself

I'm not sure it's a great idea either. Maybe voting a 1st, 2nd and 3rd, but three votes to the same person is a bit odd?

Congrats to Tori who entered these pictures:




Your theme please :thumbup


As for the voting system, it appears that nobody preferred the old system so we'll keep it for next month and discuss the options that are available.
