What do you think of the new voting system?

[omichyron]

In the old system if the person didn't care who would be minister of interior(for example)he just didn't wote in that poll, but now he is just going to pik the one closer to the top so it makes it a little bit unfair.

This is exactly what I see as a flaw in the new system. Doing the whole poll in one place is a good idea, but not one that seems possible without this problem arising. (no, I am not going to blame this for my defeat, should it occur; both candidates for the position I am competing for are listed near the top. It is primarily cambinet posts, and maybe other governor candidates, who might not have been so lucky to be the first change listed, who might have suffered from this)

now that I'm not under attack... I feel that the new system DOES have its flaws. but when we have a small number of candatities {preferbally, to fit in 25 or less options} then we should use the new system, while if we have many, we should use the old system. otherwise, you'll get a result like in nations where you HAVE to vote, and some candaties are elected, basacally, at random. some will just look at 2 or 3 positions and choose the first position that qualifies. although I took the time to look... some people may not be as mature as I am... ahem...

anyways, I'd like to propose this:
that everyone must vote in every election. I'm not sure how we could check, but you should leave an abstain option open in each election. if the winning person has less votes then there are abstnetions, then new elecitons must be held... though that last part perhaps isent such a good idea.

I'd also like to propose a "speaker" job. a British speaker, not an American one. in the british system...
the speaker is non-partisan, and his job is to ensure procedures are followed. we should have a speaker job, and its the speaker that makes election polls, and other procedural things. last time I suggested this, I suggested that I take the position, but that was unpopular, so I will not suggest that this time. I think that if a speaker was here we wouldent have these problems, as his word would have been final, and if we dident like his policies, we would have voted him out. currentley, the job of president and mod leaison tend to cause conflicts between corM and AoA, and we should have an intermediary to solve the problems....

am I making any sence?

Fortunatally we are mature enough to work out our own problems. nananannanana

Maybe another solution and a combination of the old and new system:
Make a poll for government (president and ministers).
Make another poll for governersof provinces.

By doing this you cut the number of polls and still have a reasonable number of options in one poll.
