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...). |

If you really want to know there are people self voting 10 and placing low votes on all other entries, even if they declare in comment they liked it. Not counting self-group upvotes.
No name revealed but we can see who does what.
Bunch of hypocrites and cheaters. |

LMan: not grumpy at all - just realistic. and what Ian said - since i could see how ppl actually vote, i just dont take it seriously anymore at all. its a silly game, and the result should be taken as such. |
