Shortscale plectrums - Weighted vote

Enough people were unhappy with the way the last one was setup that we'll give this a go. The idea is you vote for your 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice. They each get points and then the design with the most points is chosen.

1st choice - 4 points
2nd choice - 2 points
3rd choice - 1 point

I'm not sure if the votes should be public or private. With them public someone voting towards the end could vote for what wouldn't be their initial preference but to avoid one they disliked, which would be unfair on someone who voted early. If we do it private, there's the argument that it's only a font and it also means that others are less clear on how many people have voted so far.

So I'm going to leave that part open. If you want to vote by replying directly to the thread, feel free. If you want to vote by PM'ing me your choices you can go that way too. If you do PM, make a post in the thread saying you've voted so everybody is clear where we are.

Gavin mentioned doing just six but I don't know which six that is so here are all nine from the previous vote.

It's only open to those buying plectrums (and um.. BobAC shhh don't tell Mike) and I'll keep it open until either everybody has voted, or there is an option far enough in the lead that any remaining votes couldn't change the outcome.

I'm just an idiot that can't do multiplication. I meant the original 9.

I have submitted my votes via pm.

Ah, I thought you meant to drop the least popular or the stencil type. Looking at the list Mike posted there were 7 choices that reached similar vote counts and two with only 2-3 votes so I just left them all in.

Ok, cool. Once all the votes are in James will PM them to me and I will decide who voted correctly and who's votes were "spoiled" because they voted for the wrong font.

Good to know there are adequate checks and balances in place for something like this.
