Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Specifying 20 seats only yields 18 elected candidates. Perhaps some games didn't get enough votes according to RTSTV?

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

I spotted a small anomoly in the Business and Office category. Vote
L05IxdjVS3B6RXOXkFUAbTE2C07eML3w seems to have the same app in first and second :)

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Yeah, this would have been my Vote if I had known how to vote like this! :D

I had already voted and perhaps developed different projects in favour if I had known this results before. At example I stopped the development of N900-x-ray in favour of ClipMan. Moreover I voted myself for BashORGquotations at place 1 instead of N900-x-ray. The criticism, the insults and complaints were to heavy and I thought it would have no chance to get many votes so I concentrated myself at more useful applications like ClipMan. But I never expected myself that LUCID could get so many votes... It works great, but I don't know for what I could use it myself. I was really surprised, I had thought totally different applications could get far more votes in this category. Strong competitors - Congratulations! :)

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Just wrote Nemein an email, asking for the official final results.

And the answer:

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Sorry for triple post.

Your feedback please... ;)

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Oops! Mmh... what about using exactly the same method as for the last council election: http://maemo.org/vote/results.php?election_id=10

Hmm... perhaps without threshold... but I don't understand what is it for?! :confused:

Okay, I guess I really don't understand this voting system. :D And it would help if someone could explain me what are "ties" in the context of this voting... but I would, without this knowledge, prefer to simply use "the same" without asking much what it does exactly. ;)

I'm afraid some clever developer could look now at the already released numbers, count it itself with different "break methods" and prefer / promote the procedure that gaves him more votes than the other projects.

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Hmm... okay, "the same" doesn't work if we wan't to get a ranking of all participants... :confused: ...we don't have "5 seats" - we have 3 (or 4) to elect and display the others in the order of votes they get.

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

As Helmuth just said...
Okay, which one to take? I don't want to decide this on my own...

Re: MeeGo Coding Competition 2011
 

Okay, currently reading this: http://www.openstv.org/ranked-choice-voting

I guess it was not a very clever idea to become not a mathematician... moreover I'm near to say my english makes a additional limitation. :confused:
