compos and voting on csdb

Am I the only one finding it hard to vote in compos on here? Often one do vote for the entries that are the best in the compo. like 1-10 IN THAT COMPO against entries IN THAT COMPO. It is a compo vote and not a general vote on the whole history of the c64 in a way. Could one create a compo vote thing for compos? That would be so cool in my mind. Just a thought.

have two different kinds of vote tables, one for voting "compos" and one for rating productions generally, mutually exclusive?

so on a sid/logo whatever csdb-compo, there is only a compo vote table - after deadline of compo is over, all compo votes will be calculated into a result table, compo vote table is removed and "general rating" table with zero votes is inserted, so production can be voted on again in respect to all other releases - outside of compo. or - have both tables in parallel present on the release page, which might confuse some people. just throwing ideas...

The voting system should be deleted. In the end it's nothing but a market mechanism which automatically leads to competitive behaviour.

competition, the worst thing ever happened to scene, and the biggest enemy of gay scene bromancing :-D

There are some easy to use competition apps out there. The issue I guess is that they will never be part of CSDB scheme unless the elders of CSDB choose so, and it won't happen as CSDB is first considered to be a database. However, we all use CSDB as a forum and no one would use external voting app no matter how easy it would be to set up.

Anyway, voting is pointless. Most active CSDB sceners belong to a handful of groups and therefore vote as one would in a parlamentary democracy. :)

@Hein - I almost voted today - A near death experience for me. In a split second my point-finger were so close to be all in on the mouse-button but my brain got its act together and I released the finger before submitting...

@Mixer... yes... Database, but still a kind of scene hub... And now the compos will be decided by even fewer...

The point of non nerds are that when a compo enty enters a compo outside csdb it will be here instantly so it will just be overlay of sites instead of just having a small feature for that here! But I know, it is hard to setup and all.

if you'd spend all this effort in making a compo platform rather than endless babble...
