If https://blognomic.com/archive/four_score_and_seven_points_ago does not pass, this proposal does nothing
In “Scoring” replace “Additionally, the author of a Scoring Response cannot allocate more Score to a Fragment that they authored than any other Fragment (equal allocations are allowed).” with “Additionally, the author of a Scoring Response cannot allocate any Score to a Fragment that they authored”
In Fragment Scoring replace “This is the Total Score for that Fragment.” with “This is the Pending Score for that Fragment.”
Then, as a new second step in Fragment Scoring add
* Set the Total Score for a Fragment to be either one plus the Pending Score for that Fragment (if its author submitted a Scoring Response during the Judging) or half the Pending Score, rounded up (if its author did not submit a Scoring Response during the Judging)
Voting for yourself means the optimal play is to give yourself 5 and someone else 5
On the other hand, don’t let vote for yourself and the optimal play is to simply not vote and then no one gets anything.
This prevents voting for yourself, while also giving you a reason why you should still vote.
JonathanDark: Publisher he/him
Good thinking. I’m really happy that people are thinking about collaborative mechanics and discouraging the selfish plays.
