Was: Shootout voting

I'm starting this thread to discuss the possibilities of a new voting system in the
shootout competition
There are lots of options.
Keep it to 1 vote
Vote for multiple photos

Keep the discussion here so we can focus on the photos in the "official thread"

Keep it as it is, simple and fun. There are no prizes involved and entries are on a voluntary basis so lets not muck up the works with a bunch of unnecessary new changes. Its as simple as, if you don't like you don't have to participate.

Here are my ideas:

Each contributing photo should be numerized eg. I enter first so I put above the photo the correct number etc..

So when we vote we just enter a few numbers

So it is easier.

I am sticking to my opinion, voting systen should be reform.

end of the month, users get to vote the best three of their likes.
the best picture earn 3 points
2nd best earn 2 points
3rd best earn 1 point.

then, after all users have voted their 3 best pictures, the winner will be selected by summing up all the points..
using this system, even the second best picture of most user choice will get to win the competition.

I understand your point here, Hans. In recent competitions, some users have put their arguments regarding the voting system, which seem to be valid as we all have different points of views.

Maybe we could take it a little bit more "pro" as our phones are smarter than some years ago. Now we have camera apps that help us to take better photos.

thesun's idea sounds nice. Users have clearly nominated more than one photos and just selecting one as winner. The process still simple.

Lots of users do give their second choice too. I'm willing to give it a try. But is 3-2-1 point correct? We could even make it 5-3-2 points.
I'm just testing the water .

3-2-1 is easier I'd say.

if u make the point gap larger, it will be more difficukt for the second and third best to win.
because normally everymonth, voter turn out is less than 50 users.

true. We have an average of 15 entries and 25 votes. Most of the times the winning photo has 50% of the votes.
