Downvoting would be if I voted a 3 on any fellow contestant to increase my chances of winning, while I would normally give him a better vote. For example I'd give Jammer a 2 rather than a 4 lol 😂

But of course it's hardly possible to prove. In the end, it's a matter of personal honor and integrity.

Quoting GH/MSL/Toondichters
LMan is right...

All anonymous voting cowards should be banned! :D:D:D

Sounds like you prefer social desirable voting over honest voting? :P

At Remix64 I've solved it like this:

- You can vote anonymously
- Adding a small comment aka "shout" will publish the vote. The vote's weight will be double
- Adding a full review will make the vote count triple

Additionally, the average is weighted, meaning single outlying votes have lesser weight, discouraging tactical voting in either direction.

For the yearly Remixer of the Year award, a simple collection of nominations will determine the winner, for the manipulation of votes in the voting system would still be too tempting.

Anyway for future CSDb compos, a rule could be that only public votes are counted for the result. Would solve a lot of problems, and wouldn't need any extra coding or external voting mechanisms.

i dont get that fetish with public voting :) it will only reduce the number of votes even more (making the result even less representative) and result in even more back petting votes.

also who cares. if you do it for the votes, you shouldnt be doing it perhaps.

I agree with you, anonymous voting is a basic democratic principle.

However: if you take part in a competition, you will probably hope to score a good place. And you should expect a fair game.

the fairness that is involved is that everyone can cast his vote. and that everyone is allowed to vote whatever the fuck he wants to vote. since there are hardly any objective criteria to rank art, its all highly subjective and matters on taste. and yes, the one who brings most friends to the voting has an advantage. that problem is there, always. the only way to remove it is to ditch this type of voting alltogether and involve a jury (i very much would like to see this back at X...).
