I think you are wrong. - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 6, 08:12 20
- But all the players are exactly the same. -- nm - TFox Jan 6, 08:13 19
  - This will be true, to an extent, for the eventual BP winner, but not as true for the nominees -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jan 6, 08:15 18

      - Anyone care to summarize for me what "preferential voting" is? I am unfamiliar. -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 08:27 7
        
        You submit a list of votes. The first in the list gets 10 preferential votes from you, the 10th gets only 1 preferential vote from you - Beryllium Jan 6, 08:29 6

        he's not necessarily right, but that is one way to tally preferential votes. there are many. -- nm - mafic Jan 6, 08:53 1

        more math - Beryllium Jan 6, 08:34 1
        
        or 2000. whatever. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 6, 08:34
        
        Ah, yes. Didn't know that method of voting was called that name. Thx! -- nm - con_carne Jan 6, 08:31
      - yeah, this is what I'm trying to point out ... not only did they expand the pool, but they changed the vote system as well. There could be more than - Beryllium Jan 6, 08:25
    - What I mean is, they have changed the depth of the pool and the structure, but they haven't overthrown the voters militarily (I think). - TFox Jan 6, 08:17 6

        I disagree. I think there is more to the expansion. - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 6, 08:20 4

        indeed, this is also what I'm trying to say :) The expanded movies will be more varied, but the old dogs still rule the roost. Or something. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 6, 08:26 2
        
        I think we all agree. Except for TFox. He is an asshole. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 6, 08:29 1
        
        *nodding* -- nm - TFox Jan 6, 08:32
    - Exactly. Expanded is more then the number of noms. -- nm - Spawn: Champion of ST Jan 6, 08:16

- Yes, that is the criteria the voters are using to judge it on. -- nm - TFox Jan 6, 08:10 2
  - Why shouldn't it be? -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jan 6, 08:13 1
    - I do not think that Star Trek is going to be considered closely enough to even get to that granular level of detail. -- nm - TFox Jan 6, 08:14
It did just somehow get a Producer's Guild nomination. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 6, 08:07 3
- National Board of Review too. But I still don't buy it. -- nm - TFox Jan 6, 08:09 2
  - Well, I hope you're right. -- nm - Don Homer Jan 6, 08:21 1
    - Weirdly, I don't, because I loved my ass some Star Trek. But I just don't see it coming to fruition. -- nm - TFox Jan 6, 08:22

- hey!...oh wait...you're right. nevermind! -- nm - Remlik Jan 6, 08:58
