[QUOTE="MavrickWeirdo, post: 2630108, member: 107"] You are welcome (actually I'm just improving my postcount/visibility for a future run for ENnies Judge) :cool: Here is my suggestion for increasing participation in judge elections. Put the 2007 Judge Canidates on the 2006 ENnies ballot. It would increase voter participation. That would also give you the "hidden results" that everyone agrees is needed. (Technically it is not a secret ballot, because those who count the votes can tell who voted for whom.) Third it would give you early results on judges. I do have a comment on a "hidden results" election. Suspence (waiting for results) can be "dramatic", but if stretched over a long period of time it will loose it's strength. Part of the reason that you got good voter participation was: Those "teasers" kept people interested in the absence of any other information. [/QUOTE]
