When I said "those two things can only be judged by the people actually knowing these persons" I didn't mean that other people can't vote, I know they can, but I'm guessing that most people here only vote for product they've seen/people whose work they know/parties they've been to. So fake votes is not my concern.

With requirements I mean stuff like 'has to be registred as a party, not a meeting' etc. Ofcourse that won't stop people entering their internal meeting as a demo party here, but c'mon, it's not that hard to spot. If "Focus meeting #3" is #1 in the party charts you could disqualify such a thing right away.

If you're really concerned about fake votes, there is only one thing you can do: discard of the whole system, now. :)

Ok. I see you point, but I just thought which consequences it could have. :)
You write: "I did not know that someone who only has a login, cannot vote".
Did I say that? If you have a login on CSDb you can vote - you don't have to have a scener entry or anything.

@TDJ:
Your idea about it only being possible to vote for REAL parties and not meetings is nice. If that is all you meant - fine with me. :)

Fake voting - I know it's impossible, but I belive that we made it just a bit hard to do extensive fake-voting here. It's been a long time since I got the last complaint about anyone feeling they were up/down-voted. he.

A misunderstanding about whether a login or/and an entry can vote, allthough I think it's unlikely that a non-c64-scener will cast his vote over here anyway, even if he got a csdb login and visited a c64 party (as a focus groupy for instance or a pc-lamer) hmmm, groupies should be allowed to vote, that's true..

I think even People who have not attended a Party should be able to vote for it (maybe with a check-mark: did not attend).

Because the output of the party (demos,music,grafix) can be judged by people who were not even there.

However, the spirit,games,alkohol,atmosphere etc.pp can only be judged by people who were there.

I think there is a difference between the party itself, and the products that are released there (although they are often part of the total atmosphere as well: those who were at TP3 probably remember the huge amount of demos as being one of the reasons the party rocked so much).

So personally I hope only those who attend vote ;)

Rethinking about it, the non-attendents should not vote for a party, but for the release-disks.
Maybe Events should contain (besides the individual contributions) a release-disk.

I'm not sure we will make a special "release-disk" entry for events - at least not yet.
But for now people can always add such things under 'external links'.

release-disks for every event would seriously rock.
