http://match.eve-csm.com
What?
The website presents the user with a list of statements ("PvP should be optional", "Trade orders should have a 1000 ISK minimum increment", etc), and compares the answers the user gives to the answers given by CSM candidates. Using this comparison the website then calculates a match percentage, neatly identifying and displaying which candidate represents the user's views the best.
How?
The website works in the following way:
Candidates receive a password that allows them to log on to the website. Here they can answer the statements and their answers are stored in the database. They can edit this information during the candidate entry phase. The answer options are "strongly disagree", "disagree", "no opinion", "agree", "strongly agree". While we are gathering candidate profiles, user matching will be disabled, as they can only get reliable results when all candidates have finished their profiles. These profiles illustrate the vision of each candidate.
Once all (within reason) candidates have filled in their profile, matching will be enabled. Users fill in the same questionaire as the candidates did, and we calculate a match percentage. Additionally, we display a table of all questions and all candidates that shows the user where his questions match and differ from the candidates.
Candidate entry phase
If you are an official candidate, you should have received an evemail from me with your login details. If this is not the case, get in touch with me. If you do not fill in a profile, you will not be included in the matching process.

Thank you all. If you feel you are not properly represented in these questions, please let me know. I cannot change questions for this term (they are locked now), but I will keep it in mind for next term.

 Originally by: Sokratesz
I thought it was a decent balance between different game aspects, just a tad few, next time expand it a bit in each direction to get a more detailed coverage and thus more detailed matches.
I had originally planned to have 50 questions, but after talking it over with my host (serenity steele) I decided on 30 so it wouldnt scare away users who felt 50 questions was too much work. I'll re-evaluate it after the CSM4 election tho - maybe I underestimate the users.

The following players have not filled in their profile yet. If this is by choice please ignore this, but otherwise please fill in your profile before matching is turned on. Anyone who does not fill in their profile will not be included in the matching process and may lose potential votes as a result.

If you see them ingame, remind them to fill in their profile. Their login details should be in the Evemail from me - and they can always contact me if they lost their details.
