Doesn't that mean your number 1 only gets 3pts instead of 5 as per your rules?
Exactly.
So you have to arbitrarily rank shows you haven't seen or your vote counts for less than other people's?
Not expecting a perfect system by any means, but that's mental.

It doesn't do that. If my top show gets 3 points and shows 4&5 get nothing, it is +3 on both.So you have to arbitrarily rank shows you haven't seen or your vote counts for less than other people's?
Not expecting a perfect system by any means, but that's mental.
If I list all 5 shows, my top gets 5 points with 4th on 2 and 5th on 1 so my top show would be +3 & +4.
It basically works out quite even. Not perfect but the best we can come up with.
Makes very little sense that. I'll leave in the shows I haven't watched so. Number 1 on everyone's list should surely get the same number of points?
Ohhhhhhhhhh I see. I feel a little bit stupid
It's too combat tactical voting where someone might just come in and vote 1 show. I'm sure some people are still voting tactically but at least it limits it somewhat. No way to completely eradicate it though.Ohhhhhhhhhh I see. I feel a little bit stupid
Its harder to game
This is exactly how the American Electoral College system started.
Ah, I thought the system was that all shows you don't vote for get 2 points. Fair enough!
Not going to bother changing my list but started to watch The Wire again and just saw that notorious "feckin" crime scene-scene. Hilarious.
Well I feckin forgot about Trailer Park Boys. I'm assuming you all did too. An egregious oversight.
It had a couple of votes
It's even within your own vote but not even overall.
For instance 5 people vote South Park no.1 and only list 3 shows then South Park gets 15 total points. 5 people vote Star Trek no 1 and list 5 shows and Star Trek gets 25 points. 10 point difference despite each show getting 5 first place votes.
Feels like that means you have to vote for all five shows even if you haven't seen them to get your first show full points which could make a difference. Maybe I'm missing something though
5 people vote this:
1. Breaking Bad (15)
2. GOT (10)
3. The Wire (5)
N/A. Twin Peaks (0)
N/A. Family Guy (0)
Breaking Bad has +15 on the bottom show.
5 people vote this:
1. Breaking Bad (25)
2. GOT (20)
3. The Wire (15)
4. Twin Peaks (10)
5. Family Guy (5)
Breaking Bad has +20 on the bottom show.
And this is assuming people vote exactly like that, which is not the case.
Whilst there is a difference, it's not THAT high compared to any other method.
In an ideal world, people will just be honest and vote what they've seen but any public voting system can be manipulated, there's no way around that.
System would have been fine were it not for a few sci fi nerds single voting.
