User blog:SconesAndTeaMapping/Idea for Mappervision voting

Hey peeps

So I've been thinking... (long pause)

Wouldn't it be more fun and exciting if when we vote for the 10 best countries and comment below in the chat, we send private messages to the moderators/admins, who after everyone has voted, count the votes and release the results, and only then would we know who's won and the results of all the countries. The reason behind it is that it's kinda annoying with some people (not mentioning names) who just rage about them not doing so well or insulting people who don't give them points. The other main reason is because I know I and quite a lot of other people get annoyed when people reveal the points because I believe it just ruins the fun of the game.

Feel free to agree or disagree!

UPDATE: Yeah, I realise now that what we have at the moment is fine (apart from Razvy who we should ban, no offense). The thing I think would be good to change is have less of a buildup because I find that the contest gets a bit unexciting after 2 weeks of voting. I think it would be better to have a big climax at the end where we reveal the points after people votes privately so it all happens at once instead of over a long period of time. Again, it's just an opinion :)
