I gotta think this through. Usually on these people do a tournament style with one on one threads with polls, but those always die and everyone loses interest. Im thinking maybe we pair in groups of 5, get it down to a heads up and let people vote on it then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKnight82 Posted August 15, 2020 Author Share Posted August 15, 2020 Actually I’m going to do this. We will let everyone present their dishes. The 10 of us will vote the best 1,2 & 3 dishes, can’t vote for your own. Points will be staggered with 1 being more than 2, etc. Then once we have 2 finalists we will do a new thread with a poll.

SwAg Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 I’ve seen what that turns into too many times. ”you ranked me last, now I’m going to find an unreasonable explanation not to vote for you.” - literally every week for ten years in BDL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwAg Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 That way we don’t encounter the issue I mentioned (control for bias), or the tastes of a small sample limiting the choice for the broader audience. Everyone had a fair chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if a poll isn’t working, just have people comment their choice after all the meals are listed. edit - And people might have multi-component meals (entree + dessert), just have the choices correspond with Meal 1, Meal 2, etc. if it’s an issue to fit Edited August 15, 2020 by SwAg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malfatron Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 can only have 3 poll Qs per thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwAg Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Thread voting then. Good enough for Mafia, good enough for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malfatron Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 it still might make sense to randomize 1 v 1 matchups to get down to the final 5. and then vote on the 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
