Chris--

Referring to your MMPO tie example:

If one of the 24 "B" voters ranks A in 2nd place, that ends the tie between B and C. Now there are 50 voters ranking A over C, but only 49 ranking A over B. C;s largest votes-against is now 50. B's largest votes-against is still 49. B wins.

As I said, MMPO's ties are based on an unrealistic assumption of uniform voting.
