in thread Front Page with Negative Rep..
Well the nice thing about "tension" is that it would measure the magnitude of active indecisiveness without revealing the actual vote count; this way you could get feedback prior to voting or considering without revealing the raw votes.
Examples:
++ | -- | Total vote | tension |
---|---|---|---|
100 | 5 | 95 | low |
10 | 5 | 5 | low |
5 | 100 | -95 | low |
5 | 5 | 0 | low |
100 | 100 | 0 | high |
20 | 20 | 0 | medium |
50 | 20 | 30 | medium-high |
Another phrase for "tension" would be "high interest, controversial".
