- 2nd Phase - Voting process from 15th of March to 19th of March. Winner shall be announced on the 20th of March. I believe that the voting should be made by means of MERITING, but I'm willing to discuss this with the community (also, another thread would be made);
The voting process seems short enough, I think it need at least 1 week or even 2 weeks since people might forgot, busy etc.
Although merit can be used to vote, but it's not really a good choice because it would increase few dramas like:
- What if I send 3 merits to someone? does it's count for 1 vote or 3 vote? if you count for 3 vote, people will say it's a discrimination since merit source do have more sMerit to send
- An account who doesn't have any sMerit will not able to vote even he's eligible to vote
- Someone mistakenly send merit to the participant which he doesn't want to to vote (you reclaim/unsend/recover sMerit)
I think voting via poll or post are better than merit.
- What would make you more at ease? I could post a donation address to whoever wanted to contribute to the amount in the pot, controlled by me (and that would mean that the community would have to trust me) or I can try to talk to a fellow escrow that I know to hold all the funds (including my own funding);
There are 2 ways:
- Every contributors just hold in their own wallet, when the winners have been announced, every contributors can send the prize to the winners
- Use trusted escrow if you and other contributors doesn't want to get confused or want to be more efficient
So you don't have to hold other contributors funds.
- Should I change some rules? Or even add more? I want it to be a fair contest for everyone but also prevent double posting from users who may create new accounts for example ...
- Only Full member and above are eligible to vote, or any ranks have been received at least 50 Merits
- One user can vote x user(s), or there's no restriction and one user can vote all participants, as long as he want?
