I agree with Jasmyn...

But I think the system written by Burr is also decent, however, from the way I understand it, it will also be unfair. If a mud has an average of 25 votes, but then can pull 250 votes in their allotted time, they will get a ratio of what? 10 to 1? That may be undeserved if the same 25 vote ten times. Brings us back to the same problem.

Now the system also seems to hurt those MUDs with immense pbases. Eternal City and RoD pull what? 400 to 600 sometimes up to 1000 a voting session? But then they have the pbase to support that, so their ratio may be only 1 to 1.5

If you list these muds in order of highest player ratio, then Eternal City and those other giants are pushed to the bottom of the list when in fact, they should still be at the top.
