For this season, we have decided to make some adjustments to how the Stock Watch works.
If you think a player's rating is wrong, you can create a thread in the Stock Watch Discussion board with that player's name as the title, as before. Your post should indicate the player's current rating, whether you think their rating should be increased or decreased, and any argument you have for backing that up. You cannot, however, propose a new rating. There should be no numerical value listed for the player's new rating. This is to avoid any potential cognitive bias instilled in future voters.
Any and all arguments, from OP or anyone else, as to what direction a player's rating should go, or why another's argument is wrong or overstates some things, are still very much encouraged. If you are using player comps in your argument, you may list the comp's rating (since anyone can find it anyway), but you still may not indicate that this is the precise number you propose for your player.
Once the thread is created, I will, within 24 hours, add in a link to a Google form which has the following fields:
1. Questions asking you to rate every player who's stock watch is open, including the one you proposed. If you've already voted, just click on the link to edit your response.
2. A final question asking you to sign with your GM name.
It is in that form that you give your precise number value for the new rating. The second question is a signature to avoid voting fraud. You may vote without making any argument in the thread, but the dialogue is still very important and strongly encouraged. Results will be sent to a spreadsheet that the Ratings Committee has access to.
After a week, votes will be tabulated. If there are fewer than 8 votes, the thread will remain open until they are collected. If the threshold has been reached, the change will be enacted. Due to some of the software nuances with how the ratings calculate usage, a very few of the final overall ratings may differ from the voted rating (usually slightly less) to correct for proper FT% and 3PR.
You are free to change your vote at any point within the voting period.
