The only reasonable method of voting using this ranking data is one of the Condorcet methods. How you break ties doesnt matter much to me. Wikimedia, Debian, Gentoo, and Software in the Public Intrest all use Schulze method for what that is worth. However, I'm more concerned about who gets to vote and how many times do they get to vote. -- Russell O'Connor http://r6.ca/ ``All talk about `theft,''' the general counsel of the American Graphophone Company wrote, ``is the merest claptrap, for there exists no property in ideas musical, literary or artistic, except as defined by statute.''
