User blog comment:Aeinstein/Most OP weapon in SR/@comment-1917722-20150304145311

I will be doing the right version of this, with the following changes:


 * At the start, I will do a 'best in class' round, to decide which weapons of each class everyone finds best. This is especially to eliminate assumptions. At the end of this round, the two weapons with the most votes will enter. Should there be two weapons on #2, there will be a separate vote to sort that out.


 * The next round is where things are more complicated. Users are to base their votes on a 1v1 scenario where there are 100 pixels between the two stickmen. This is to offset the advantage that ranged weaponry often has - outranging.

The system works out as follows:
 * Round 1: All weapons in, 16 weapons go on to round 2
 * Round 2: 16 weapons in, 8 pass to round 3
 * etc.

I think this is the way to go.
