Re: points Posted by sulriel January 04, 2006 - 7:20:57 Topic ID# 6574
If I remember, someone mentioned the potential of ties as a reason not
to lower the point spread to 1-5, but if I remember, that shouldn't be
an issue, because the system automatically ranks the stories by
points, then those with the same number of points by (?) number of
reviews and those with the same number of reviews by character count.

I think it'd be highly unlikely to have ties once those steps had been
taken.

it would also give the potential to reward those reviews that were
longer than the point cap on character count.
