Good Grief Mike that sounds extremely complicated. I think life is too short to work out how many votes you may or may not have. Plus who is going to verify them ?
Since when was PoTW a competition ?
I think the whole thing should be kept simple. A simple method to mention in dispatches a short list of images which were considered to be outstanding in one way or another in a particular weeks post. Some weeks there maybe no images that make the grade other weeks there maybe 3 or 4. I think Don's approach goes a long way towards that.
We should be out there snapping not counting votes
