So it looks like some are interested in a possible change to the scoring, and some prefer the old ways. It is easier to explain the old ways and most people are happy with it. However should we have a poll (formal or informal) on changing the scoring? I have no attachment to any particular scoring method.

Unless people are complaining about the wheel, I don't see a need to spend time trying to rebuild it. That would add more work to an already significant project. I'm fine with the old-school method.

Oof. I would just assign points using the weighting of our traditional system...ranking the bloody things is hard enough

Yeah, I have to agree with this. Keep it simple.

I decided even with extra work, any new system would be fun because it would hold more potential for surprise.

I think the original point allocation suggested was overly complicated, but I welcome any change that allows for more potential variety.

So with whatever method we end up using, will I still be able to participate with merely a Top 25 or Top 50?
