Post counts in regular season thread are whack. I mean, someone can use one post saying simply "4-1" or something and that counts for the same amount as say when I do a sim summary in one post outlining every game in my sim with highlight statlines? It's fucked up. Well this is kind of what I'm trying to help out. There are some GMs who do more in the league and I think they deserve the credit. I also think this might boost activity from the weaker GMs as well. I'm open to other ideas but I think this might help stir things in the right direction. At the end of the day, I don't think we have a bad system at the moment. It's not perfect, but nothing is. Some people clearly contribute more to the league than others, but going by post counts is a pretty crude thing as it is, because you just have to think about quality/quantity with regards to what people post as to whether it's fair or not. Then you look at post pad threads where moderators don't have a 15 second rule, so they can hit the limits in like 10mins whereas regular forum contributors have to pad for hours. It's all fucked up. Fuck sim leagues!!!

Meh alright for a serious answer... I voted for option 1. Hell I always thought article voting was like that anyway.
As for the IT system, just leave it the way it is. I was tight that I got yet another 0 but it is what it is. I like Don's analogy with gambling. Between articles and post pads and playoff predictions and other random things here and there, we have plenty of opportunities to improve our players. While some posts are clearly spam, others aren't so easy to determine. Who are we to say someone is spamming just because they repeatedly post blurbs about their team or something like that? Maybe they are just genuinely enthusiastic about their squad, etc. It would lead to arguments on which posts are spam and which are not. I'm not down for that and it's just too much work overall. The way it is now is nice and simple.
If I were going to change anything, maybe just make the IT from 1-5 as opposed to -1-5. That way people at least get something. But like I said before I'm fine with the way it is now. Just needed a day to get over it

Yes to the article, no to the IT. IT is a gift. I agree that it should be 0-5 or 1-5 instead of a -1 being an option (if it still is). If you want an upgrade, write an article. The IT is like the lottery, you are gambling. If you don't feel like gambling, then don't post an IT. There is no -1. It's at 0-5.

Yes to the article, no to IT. No reason to change that.

yeah that's fine first 8 for an article.. But I'm also gonna say u gotta snapshot it, cuz otherwise I might come in a few hours later and maybe 4 points has more votes then 5 points (even though 5 points got to 8 first).

basically if the vote was
8 for +5 7 for +4
15 total votes
is the same as
8 for +5 0 for +4
Magic # is 8. This way no GM is penalized by voting due to inactive GMs not voting.
