Voting REsults

Is it possible to see our reults under new voting system as we could under Selective ?? There used to be a bar graph....I also think it would be good to toss first 0 as it would prevent someone from voting to get revenge, express dislike for person, etc...and No, this does not imply a 10 should be tossed as well......that is faulty logic.

The system already compensates for that sort of thing.

How?? Specifics? There is no bar graph...apparently, it was thought to be useful......it is. I also want to know how an author's work is prevented froim being compromised by another.My suggestion that first zero be tossed is a good one..it is a well-known and used method.

Caedes has developed a method to prevent revenge voting and up-voting, but we will not go into it, security by obscurity.

To answer a bit more in detail:

The only reason that we don't show the histogram of the votes for c-index is that the c-index is not directly generated from the votes. It would not be clear how the c-index is related to it.

The problem with the zero tossing idea is that there is no statistically valid reason to do it. We have algorithms that contribute to the c-index calculation which take care of lowballing and other flum-dumbery.
