RE: Join SteemPact! Empowering Change Together
Some users raised concerns about how we choose the winner. We suggest three options for this:
- By vote count (current pick)
- By vote value (in this case whales may have too much power which, we think, may be contrary to the democratic approach of the project)
- By having every user comment with 'vote' (may be hard to count)
We are not set in stone about this, so we'd appreciate to hear your opinions on what method is best. Please give feedback on what you think works best.
I believe going by vote count is the best choice for the community.
Vote by value gives whales control over what charity wins. The community in general might feel there vote no longer matters and stop contributing with an upvote.
Having a cast your vote by saying “vote” or using a third party survey I feel opens issues in regards to miscounting votes or third party sites being compromised. Third party survey sites often get trolled by people taking over them by either using a bot network to cast votes, or exploiting a weakness and casting as many votes as they wish.
That is also our current view on the matter. We will see what other users have to say and decide tomorrow what system we will use in the end.
Nothing is easy on world.....
By having every user comment with 'vote' (may be hard to count)
Make survey with nominated using Google and recaptcha maybe ?
I like that idea! We will have to protect against users with proxies though… They could easily vote a lot. And we have to delay voting to create the google form (I think editing it with each new submission can be hard)
You can make votes from last week nominations ! Idk about proxy .... i am not really tech person but someone will know how to deal with this :)
