Obviously the reason I test whether lowering any "favorite" causes a desired result is the fact that any one of those candidates actually might be the sincere favorite. I will read the other messages again but I am not sure how you will make a better votes-only definition without doing something similar to this. The FBC of course theoretically is passed by a lot of methods that would not pass the votes-only version. But I don't believe it's likely that, in those cases, the methods are really providing a valuable guarantee. Kevin
