If you or anybody else had simply suggested anything else when i proposed the run-offs, i would have happily gone along with it. I've made every change people have asked for.
Having said that, since we agreed to have draws on the ballot, is it actually more logical to do anything else? There have been instances where one team's victory and a tie received the same number of votes. What then? As for the type of run-off you were involved in, giving each of you a point (i assume that's what you meant by losing a point?) would have meant declaring the least popular option the winner. It's a misinterpretation. If people thought that match should have ended in a draw, they would have voted for a draw. It's more sensible to pursue the more supported outcomes.
I didn't mean that post to be critical at all, you've taken on a herculean effort and if anyone's moaning is critical of the way you've run this they should shut the **** up. In fact I tried to make that point by pointing out that it was my own fault for not paying attention and bringing it up when it was first done.
As for the logic of it, it's just the way we handled it in the last draft I did since we figured that if half the people think one team would win and half think the other would win then it would seem that the two teams were equally deserving of the spoils and so we did ties, but I don't think this way makes less sense, just not what I'm used to so I wouldn't have argued very strongly for it even had I brought it up...though maybe if I knew how it'd work it for me I should've
I didn't think you were being critical. Just wanted to explain my thinking.
We need more voices on the h2h or goal difference thing!
Can we do a poll on it?
