With the majority disapproval of updates that took away noob-sniping and some former voters having frustration with their privileges taken away, it seems people are still voicing criticisms of my troll debates.
We have two problems.:
- Many people here seem to want noob-sniping.
- Despite there being a quantity of veteran and experienced voters, there aren't enough of them to accommodate the amount of rated debates needing votes.
So there are only two solutions to this.:
Here is the first,
My Troll debates solve this problem in two ways.:
- They give new debaters the option to vote on debates, and such a privilege also encourages them to participate more, both in debates and voting.
- It also gives them the qualification to take part in Rated Debates, thus making them eligible for noob-sniping.
So here, I have already successfully killed two birds with one stone using this same method repetitively for all noobs that join the site.
The Cons, however.:
- Incompetent votes. (Subject to mod removal, so not a problem really.)
- Vote-bombing. (They could choose to reward certain people with all the points rather than judging objectively, but mods can also discipline them as they decide. So this mitigates the risk.)
Here is the second solution.:
Enable Judicial Decision on Rated Debates. It's really THAT simple.
Forget the potentiality of debaters cheating the system to get Elo through deliberately choosing biased judges. Each debater has the ability and option to select their own judges. Even if a debate is judicial decision, allow votes to be regulated by mods anyway so they can delete if either debater is cheating.
