Posts from Voting for the location of the CIS-2107 tournament.
Location for CIS 2017 Heroes III tournament
Why should a vote in a multi-choice poll be divided? The task is to determine how many people are willing to come to the tournament. This is a linear sum of votes "for".
For example, 3 people participate in the vote, 2 of them are willing to come to both King's Bounty and Volgograd, and 1 person is willing to come only to Yekaterinburg. When dividing the votes, each city will get 1 point, but in reality, the quorum in Yekaterinburg will be twice as low.
Regarding the one-year registration... In my opinion, this is not a criterion; there are people with 3-4 years of registration and 0 activity. It would be better to look at activity on the forum.

For example, if 3 people participate in the vote, 2 of them are willing to travel to both Royal City and Volgograd, and 1 person is willing to travel only to Yekaterinburg. When dividing the votes, each city will receive 1 point, but in reality, the quorum in Yekaterinburg will be twice as low.
I repeat: if a person has n points, then they have the right to distribute these n points among the candidates. Because otherwise, they will have 2n points, meaning that at the algorithmic level, they will have an advantage in influencing the vote compared to the person who wants to vote only for one city. This creates unequal conditions for voting, since the person voting for one city turns out to be "disadvantaged" in terms of the significance of their opinion (compared to the person who votes for two cities). And this will encourage everyone to vote for two cities – that is, to vote against the third city, which is not correct. We are voting NOT AGAINST any application, but FOR any application.
It must be understood that voting and willingness to travel are absolutely not the same thing... And therefore, the votes of those who have traveled several times before are more significant, since the probability of traveling is higher.

Actually, I think it would be best to create a limited pool of people who vote for the location of the CIS event. For example, those who have already attended, chatted, voted, and made a decision for everyone. Then, all interested parties can choose whether or not to attend the CIS event.
Democracy is good, but the decisions should be made by those who really understand what this event is, who have already been there. If you want to have a say in the future, come now, and next year your voice and opinion will be taken into account.
Because sitting at a computer and playing the game is completely different from traveling to a faraway place and spending a lot of money. It's not worth letting armchair critics decide.
So, newcomers shouldn't be taken into account at all, as there's no certainty that they will come? But if someone vouches for a person and says that they will definitely come, will their "armchair" opinion be of interest to anyone? Of course, those who will participate should have more voting power, but completely disregarding the votes of those who have not yet attended the tournament seems too extreme.
And a gathering of old friends is, of course, very good... But there are also people who want to come and chat, join the Heroes community, etc. Personally, I can only make it to Korolev, and the option of "if they want to, they'll go there and back" seems a bit strange (+playing poker and other activities also requires money).
The more people there are, the cheaper the costs for the conference hall and everything else will be. Many live near Korolev. And if everything is beautiful and good there (and most importantly, cheaper), why not? :smile02:
And a reunion with old friends is, of course, very nice... But there are also guys who want to come and chat, join the Heroes community, etc.
They will take the opinion into account, don't worry. As I said, we have Vic and Dirty, who stand guard over justice.

It sounds good in theory, but how do you determine who will definitely participate in the tournament? Explain the mechanism.
What about requiring a prepayment of, say, 20%?

Well, as another option, someone already suggested not taking into account the votes of local residents.
Are locals not people, so their votes shouldn't be counted? There are many local Heroes players in Yekaterinburg, so maybe we shouldn't take Siberia into account when voting for him either, since it's so close...
I support multiple choices, but without separating the points. This will allow for a clearer understanding of how many people a particular city can gather, taking into account the "weight" of the votes of these people.
I suggest the following:
Participant - 2 points
Spectator - 1 point
If a person has previously attended a CIS event, their vote will have a coefficient of 1.5.
Each person who registers as a participant must contribute 3,000 rubles (or another amount) to the prize fund. If they do not attend or attend but as a spectator, the contribution is non-refundable.
Thus, a participant's vote will carry more weight because the event is presented as a competition. They support their vote with a contribution, which they undertake to transfer to the guarantor/judge within 3 days after the voting closes. If the contribution is not made, their vote will be counted as a spectator's vote. The voting results, along with a list of those who made contributions, will be published 3 days later.
Thus, the weight of the vote is financially supported, and no one is disadvantaged (unknown players, locals, those who disagree with Merlin, etc.). A person who has contributed money will strive to participate in the competition, and even if they do not make it, the prize fund will still be filled.
P.S. There is a 90% chance that I will not attend the CIS event (the only place that sparked interest during the May holidays was Sochi, but it has been canceled). However, I would like to wish all future organizers not to turn the CIS event into a drinking party for old friends, but to attract new participants and spectators
