Two step wrote:My vote (har har) is to move to a system where each candidate has a preference list, and when people vote for that candidate, they inherit that list. You then run a regular STV election with that. In the future, this could be extended to allow voters to choose their own STV list instead of inheriting it from the candidate they choose.
STV but with candidates choosing the preferences is horrifically stupid, Boo Step.
'Vanilla' STV would be better than that awful suggestion, but it'd still face the same issues as any other voting system: Voter turnout. If the lazy slime that populates hisec doesnt vote, they're not gonna get represented. |

That's where education comes into play. Tell these people why they should care, why 20 minutes out of their day learning some basics about the candidates and then voting is in their best interest.
Maybe the client just needs a big message on the log on screen saying "if you don't vote a bunch of up-their-own-arses idiots will get elected and spend all their time suggesting ways to skew the csm election system in their favour or at least against groups/people they don't like, rather than actually doing anything that matters"
maybe that sentence has too many words for the average non-voting idiot though, it could be made a bit shorter and 'punchier' I suppose |

STV and the variations suggested are utterly terrible. The fact that the CSM is so concerned about this (basically just morphing the system to something that benefits themselves more) instead of actual game related issues is sickening.
Keep the current voting. There honestly aren't any problems with it. |
