I was thinking about it yesterday night... and comes out method 2 is okay but could lead to some potential issues and interrogation :
* Are we ranking comparable scores or people ? (a score is link t a person but the point are awarded according the score.)
* What about very sall points like 0.1pt : Method is then not possible, because it will lead to have a load of small point awareded and no difference in between very close score or so...
* Sandbagging... I think that in a competition especially, the person to put out the score first deserve to get more point (while i didn`t think about it when voting first.) That lead bac to my first point. What are we ranking precisely. Scores, scores and submission time, Scores and alphabetical names, monkeys, peanuts ? Method 2 will not avoid sangbagging in competition, while the goal of sandbagging is to achieve better score in the rnaking for sure what happen if it'ts exactly the same ? I would then consider 1st person to submit the one thatget the most points.
Just my 2 cents.
