Sorting by vote results in events/compos?

Could we have automatic sorting by results per compo in the event view?
That would be nice in compos with on-line voting like in the crack intro music compo.

Sorting in general would be nice, but it's pretty worthless without more decimals in the user rating.

@ChristopherJam, you're forgetting that by building on top of the html, will make it impossible to change the regular html of event results. At least without also updating the added javascript stuff that does the extra sorting.

now, you could argue that you then always have to double work and that it wont really be a problem. but nobody likes double work.

the best solution would be is to add a few lines of code to the backend phpcode to add the sorting. A *far* simpler approach and it won't add additional maintenance requirements on a page.

anyway, this is all not really relevant anyway, I don't think perff wants to add it.

CSDb was never meant to serve as a voting platform for competitions. Usually it just shows results of competitions ran/running outside and users can add their own voting to the entries.
I just use the votes given on CSDb and create my own chart based on unweighted averages because 1 decimal digit is too less for a compo.

Please compute the variance of the mean as well then. And see if its smaller than .01

Isn't all the sorting available in here allready done with PHP (or MySQL)? Why change that method?
