BTW, Barry was nominated 5 spots over Isiah, and that was when more people participated (23 people voted then, in this thread only 13....). I think it should count for something. Maybe even that should be the rule - tie is broken by looking who was nominated first. For sure something like sudden death isn't the best solution.
Noooooo. Then you're just saying the nomination vote is a list vote 10 slots early.
I'm just saying that nomination should break a tie. That's not the same as: "we shouldn't vote at all, just make list based on nominations" ;]
My point is that if the order of nominations can affect the order on the list DIRECTLY, then there's never any pointing in nominating in a different order than you'd put a guy on the list.
Personally, I DO sometimes nominate out of my likely list order, e.g. to get positional balance on the nominee list, or conversely to bring a group of very close guys at the same position on together.
