Better wrestler format question

[Destor]

K, people have been complaining about the "draw" option so I'm going to put it to a vote.If more than 90% (thats at least 91%) say to get rid of the draw option it will be gone forever. I will also take it out of the sitories so it doesn't look so weird.

(Also vote Destor and BDC in King of the Forum [link found in sig.])

[Destor]

Also 5 days.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Gotta go with scrapping it. Mostly because I love the idea that we're HAVING to say one wrestler is better than the other, eliminating the option of a draw might be the difference maker in closer matchups.

[The Optimist]

So tempted to vote draw.

[Fabien Barthez]

Us non-morons KNOW it's a wasted vote.

Scrap it Dust, scrap it now!

[Fabien Barthez]

Who has voted keep it. I think votes that aren't backed up with posts, should be discarded. Since the people who vote for it to stay, are too shy to admit it because IT'S POINTLESS!!!!

:mad:

[Londoner]

So tempted to vote draw.

It would be ironic if draw got the most votes.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Also, don't vote for Destor in King of the Forum.

[Theo Dious]

Get rid of it. If anyone really thinks it's a tie, they can refrain from voting, then express their feelings in the thread itself so we can all know what a tool they are. :shifty:

[The Optimist]

Sometimes two wrestlers are equally badass. I've voted for ties before because I honestly wasn't able to decide. I expect the option to get tossed, if that makes anyone feel better about me being a bag of turds.

[Kane Knight]

Also, don't vote for Destor in King of the Forum.White is right, yo.

[Fabien Barthez]

If you can't decide which wrestler out of 2 you prefer, you are going to have a tough time with the decisions involved in adulthood.

I hear testicles are quite reasonably priced, on eBay.

Don't be a pussy. Make a decision.

[Anybody Thrilla]

'Gee, I really like The Berserker's furry boots...but Bastion Booger's ring attrie was fucking amazing! Oh geez, oh geeez......IT'S A DRAW!"

[Kane Knight]

Who has voted keep it.

It's a public poll.

Anyway, it's a stupid option.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Get rid of it. If you really can't decide, then don't vote.

[Fabien Barthez]

Well, i'm just asking which members of the public are such muppets.

[Dorkchop]

Keep it. EVERYONE should vote draw. No one wins and no one loses... except for Destor.

[The Optimist]

Yes, I can't make a decision between which two wrestlers I like better in an extremely casual discussion. Clearly, I'm fucked for life.

[Fabien Barthez]

There's no draw option on Keep or Flush, son.

[Fabien Barthez]

And that ISN'T extremely casual.

[The Optimist]

Yeah, which means I care more. A decision is more crucial. On TPWW, I'm dicking around about wrestling over the internet with dozens of other jerks, which is sort of fun in a raking my face over broken glass way, but not monstrously important.

[Anybody Thrilla]

If I don't know whether you prefer the Repo Man or The Warlord in the next thirty minutes, The Optimist, I will murder five children in cold blood.

[Theo Dious]

If he says the Warlord, I shall murder five kittens.

[Theo Dious]

But I would be interested in the scenerio in which one would murder five children in a generally amicable mood.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I learned from Waylon Mercy.

[The Optimist]

I've got until 7:06 central time to decide. Take a seat gentleman, I'm using all the time I have.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT!

[Porcupine]

I don't feel as if the draw is in concept, a wasted vote.

In my opinion, if one really does think that two wrestlers are practical equals in their eyes (which doesnt occur often), then they should cast a vote for the draw because if they actually think two wrestlers are equal and they vote for one over the other...that's a wasted vote because it does not represent their true opinion.

Of course, the draw often comes under fire because a lot of people dont want to pick it because they want to help one or the other party win. That doesnt make sense, this is not an election, but more of a survey of people's opinions. I would rather refrain from voting than vote for one choice if I really do see two wrestlers as being equals because if I pick one over the other, I would be lying and the vote would have no value.

In fact, I think it is this notion that "draw" is not going to win that prevents some people from choosing what they really think and going with a vote that they are not truly 100% behind. It's the same issue in politics, people abstain from voting on marginalized candidates because they assume that those candidates can't win and thus end up voting for the lesser of two evils...a true downfall of the system in my eyes.

[Afterlife]

If you can't decide who to vote for, there is an option that's not fucking stupid.

DON'T VOTE.

A vote of Draw is a vote of Not Voting. It's fucking unintelligent to have "Not Voting" as an option to vote. It's that fucking simple.

No its not. Its a vote to recognize that two individuals are seen as equals by the majority of the voters.

[Afterlife]

That's not the point. It doesn't help the poll. There'fore, it's not voting for the superior. After all, "Better Wrestler" means "Better Wrestler". THeir equality does not enter into the concept.

There is nothing that says "which wrestler is better?" cannot be answered that the two wrestlers are equal. This is not a mathematical question or a scientific one, where, yeah, if someone asks which number is bigger, one cannot say that the two are equal if they are not.

The third option allows the poll to accurately gauge the people's opinions on two wrestlers. Removing it would make the polls flawed, as it would persuade people to vote against their true opinion and will make the resulting statistics less meaningful. 2 for wrestler A, 5 for wrestler B and 1 for Draw is more meaningful in gauging the people's opinions than just 2 for wrestler A and 6 for wrestler B.

And you still aren't absorbing my posts. There is no need for an "IDK" vote. If you can't decide or don't feel that either individual is superior, then abstain from the poll. Why is that not functional to you? There are plenty of polls in which I have not participated because, seeing the two as equal, I was not able to vote. But voting "draw" is a waste of time and simply useless in the long run. The poll is not about being indecisive or celebrating those who want it known that they like both men. The poll is to find the GENERAL feeling of the superior performer. And a vote of "meh" is not a vote for superiority.

I dont feel that a vote for Draw is a vote for "meh" or "I dont know". Its a vote for the recognition of the two performers as being equals and sometimes, there are people who should be recognized as equals in their field.

Yes -- sometimes. And a poll for superiority is not that time.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Are you guys still talking about wrestling?

[Afterlife]

What?

[Juan]

Get rid of it!

It's not my fault!

[Cuzziebro]

I had to vote draw I just couldn't help myself. Sorry.

[Heros Welcome]

I say scrap it.

[MCEazy]

i'd say get rid of it, no sense being pussies people, just pick one! :rant:

[Destor]

Draw is looking like it's going to survive.

[Impact!]

I disagree

[Rammsteinmad]

Get rid of it. If people can't suck it up and pick one then they can just choose not to vote.

[Fabien Barthez]

Dest, screw your self-made rules. This is your shit, so you should just decide.

[Porcupine]

Dest, screw your self-made rules. This is your shit, so you should just decide.

Destor is a man of the people.

If Destor does something then you know deep inside that Destor did it fo da people! Destor did it fo da rock!

Oh for the TPWW...

Either way, SNITSKY, it WASNT HIS FAULT!

[NoRoolz]

Get rid of it. If you really can't decide, then don't vote.

Oh.

[Destor]

No way the get rid of it vote is gonna get up to 90%. The draw is gonna stay.

[D Mac]

Loose Cannon

[Afterlife]

Ninety fucking percent??

[Destor]

Yeah, that vast majority must ask for its removal. I'll come down to 75%. Still wont hapen though.

[Afterlife]

That's fucking bullshit.

[Destor]

I don't follow

[Afterlife]

How do you not follow? YOu're telling the majority vote that it isn't majority enough. You might as well say that since CHristian didn't beat Edge by ninety percent, it's a draw.

[Destor]

Im asking for the vast majority. Not the majority. I'm looking for overwhelming support here. Not just 56.41%.

[Afterlife]

Then that's silly. I'm sorry, but it's just silly.

[Destor]

I will take this under consideration as I make my descision

[Afterlife]

Do what you want, but it's a damn Quintesson court here.

[Destor]

I dunno. I have a hard time getting rid of it when barely half of you want it gone...

[NoRoolz]

But less than half of us want it kept.

I voted for you in a last-minute swerve in KOTF so basically repay me/the wrestling forum regulars and get rid of it.

ly x

[Destor]

K

[Destor]

If I win kotf I will get rid of it

[NoRoolz]

:D

[Afterlife]

Good plan.

[Destor]

The optomist has decided that the Draw is officially debunked. NOW MORE DRAWS.

[The Mackem]

Where?

[The Optimist]

Where? I can't see!
There! Diagonally!

[The Mackem]

I want the draws that were promised.

[The Optimist]

Who promised you draws?

[Porcupine]

If I win kotf I will get rid of it

I now regret voting for you. :n:

[Destor]

Sorry :'(

[Destor]

IM JUST TRYING TO MAKE THE POEPLE HAPPY

[The Optimist]

I killed draws, not Destor.
