Voting CLOSED Bb7

Today's Suggested Moves have been posted, and the voting polls will open at Saturday 7PM EDT and close at Monday 12AM EDT(Sunday night), in order to give time for enough deliberation before the votes are cast. Don't have a username/Id yet? Get one here! and take some credit for your contributions!

Remember to check back even if you've already cast your vote! .. there's still some disagreement between potential moves .. and analysis will most likely continue up until Sunday night when the polls close. It's also not too late to submit a vote for another move that has not been evaluated yet .. (although it looks like we have most of the best move options available, people can always miss things).


  • (very) Rough draft of the Fabuloso Chess Edit Guide is now up and located here


Use the following tags to help suggest moves, and remember if you want to throw up an example speculative board in the discussion, please refer to the Edit Guide on how to properly format it.

 <!-- ==Speculative Move== -->

 <!-- REMOVE THIS LINE TO INSERT BOARD

  REMOVE THIS LINE TO INSERT BOARD -->

 <!-- MAKE CERTAIN YOU ADD A COMMENT TO JUSTIFY THIS POSITION-->

{{clear}}

Just follow the instructions, and completely delete those lines .. and don't forget to replace 'Speculative Move' with the actual move name. Also bear in mind that anything after the clear tag won't be visible, so don't enter any text underneath it (unless you're adding another section)

Voting Instructions

Cut and paste the following to vote

# '''VOTE''' by ~~~~: add a comment! 
  • You may vote for many moves as you like, but only one vote per move.
  • When voting closes, the move with the most votes wins.
  • If there is a tie, whoever tallies the votes breaks the tie.


Consensus Question

The "Consensus" for yesterday's vote is listed at 55%. However, there were only 16 unique voters who cast 20 votes. Shouldn't the "consensus" percentage be 69% (11 votes for the move prior to the deadline / 16 unique voters) rather than 55%. Kingpatzer 12:57, 21 July 2006 (PDT)

I agree and have updated it.-874 13:08, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
  • There were 20 votes cast (some duplicate but that's allowed, according to the rules) and 11 were for Nb8...hence, 55%. That's the percentage of the votes, not the voters, that it received. Snark 14:16, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
    • Granted, but isn't the percentage of voters that support a move a better measure of the consensus of support for that move? If A, B, C all vote a given move and A also votes for another, that's still 100% consensus for the given move. Why would you call that 75% consensus? -874 14:21, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
      • I think 100% means "everyone agrees that's the best move," not "most people think it's one of several playable options". In your example, A apparently can't decide. That has to be somehow different than 100% consensus. Snark 14:28, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
      • Not to belabor the point, but if, as in your example, A, B, and C each voted for the same two moves (nobody could make up their minds), then you'd have that as 100% consensus. I just think that misuses the term. That has to be 50% consensus. Okay, I'm done now. Snark 14:51, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
        • It doesn't have to be 50% consensus, because in that example A, B, and C are all agreed that either move is good. That's 100% consensus because everyone would be happy with either choice. He who says zonk 22:21, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
        • Snark, it's not "percentage of votes recieved," it's "percentage of voters who agree to the move." After all, we're reporting consensus, not margin of victory. Suppose there are 3 moves to choose from. There are 10 voters. Each voter votes for the 1st move, and 5 vote for move 2 and the other 5 vote for move 3. Of the people voting, 100% of the people support the first move, and 50% support each of the other moves. There is 100% consensus on the move choice since every voter agreed to support move 1. Kingpatzer 15:00, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
          • If that is the case then move 13 should be 100% Geedubber 16:07, 21 July 2006 (PDT)
