I'm not usually one for conspiracies - but WHAT THE ????
Oh well - hopefully all the 1's will be nullified at the end of the voting and I'll end up with a 7.1 :) |
How is it that you can see what voters are giving you? |
Multiply the number of votes(A) by the score(B), equaling (C). Do this again after one additional vote, ie. (A1) x (B1) = (C1). Then subtract C-C1 = vote received.

$25.00 buys the button. Update everytime you press it. It good but not good at the same time. |
I think Daveit thinks users can see each actual vote. Dave, Ozdick is calculating the votes he's getting by watching his overall score change as new votes come in (by hitting the $25 button over and over) and that's how he figures it out. |

The $25 is just the up front fee. Then there is the $75 a day in lost productivity. ARGH!!!!!!

| Calculating the most recent vote when a new vote is added is only accurate on average. Kirbic's post clearly shows at least two cases where existing votes were changed while new votes came in. You could draw up a rough estimate of the probability of such an event by polling much more frequently and recording vote changes when no new votes are added. |
