Mike,
Addressing Kevin Venzke, you wrote:
With such examples, it's easy for MMPO to have a tie. And yes, that's
a kind of indecisiveness that wv doesn't have.
But would it happen in a public election? All it would take is for one
voter to not vote exactly like the others in his/her faction. I claim
that MMPO's indecisiveness examples won't happen in public elections
with thousands of voters.
So I don't agree that MMPO has a grave problem with indecisiveness.
Take this often-discussed example:
49: A
24: B
27: C>B
MMPO scores: A52, B49, C49.
The result is a tie between B and C. Which "one vote" would you change
(and how) to change this result into not a tie?
I think you may have missed, or not taken on board, this KV post:
