Media Transparency in BEEZ Voting.

[Tony Lynn 15]

Wow, what a night.

As always plenty of controversy and good conversation generated from the annual BEEZ count.

I want to congratulate all that made the top 20 and to all those who voted.

In this day of transparency though I think we need to draw a line in the sand to stop all of the speculation and innuendo. It is now put up or shut up time. In this day where our pollies are under public scrutiny as well as high paid exec’s it is time for full disclosure in the SFA.

This is a simple thread, I am proposing that Cloud_ make public all votes from the BEEZ count along with the name of the poster who provided them so that we can promote fact over speculation. If this vote suggests that the masses want to see this let’s then uncover if people did vote along party lines or if all followed the rules of the vote.

Please vote in the above and make the SFA great again.

Power to the people!

Pretty sure old counts had this.

 

[TJASTA]

Nah, it will turn into a witch hunt. Look what happened to The Half Back last night.

 

[sportsmaniac89]

It's a no from me.

As much as transparency would reduce the accusations of bias, it would lead to a witch hunt and potentially some very uncomfortable discussions.

Personally, my conscience is clear because I know that (unlike what some think) I voted with no bias whatsoever.

Poor The Half Back , its not like he was questioning others spots in the top 20 for not doing media, then his list had plenty of the same thing listed.

A witch hunt for what?

 

[sportsmaniac89]

A witch hunt for what?

There will be comments along the lines of

You're a shit judge
You don't know anything about the SFA
How could you vote in that way
Why didn't you put me higher

etc

 

[TJASTA]

A witch hunt for what?

People that go against the majority.

 

[Dennis Trumpet]

I am in favour of it. Who gives a shit if somebody thinks your votes were bad. Tell them to go flower themselves

People should be embracing this. It is a chance to show that all is above board.

 

[TRUMAN#1]

Lets be honest, there will always be good posters left off everones list, it happens.

There were another 5 or so I would have loved to give votes to, but couldn't fit them in.

 

[Paddles_]

Only those with something to hide would really be against this

Mate just because the others aren't smart enough to know what is going on doesn't mean you need to ****ing telegraph it!

Happy New Year by the way.

People that go against the majority.

This is a valid concern.

If you don't cater to the majority here in the SFA, you're very much on the outer.

The irony is I am doing this to try and help you. At the moment the consensus is that all you guys just stacked the votes and what better way to silence the haters than proving them wrong.

 

[Barrybran]

I'm guilty of voting for JoshWoodenSpoon

My concern still stands.

A witch hunt does occur and also the view that if you don't suck up to certain people, you're very much on the outer.

 

[PhenomenalV1]

Where's the option for "dunno"?

Calls for voting transparency.
Doesn't reveal his votes.

To be fair mate I could send whatever I wanted. Full transparency can only come from the person who received the actual votes.
