We're discussing the easter extension. 3 days would be enough, right?
I'm a little late to the party on this, but have we considered simply having a few non-participant judges decide everything?
The trouble is, how many people can you find to be active and have enough expertise to judge a topic? Even if you did, there's the concern of styles. I like reading stories which are fleshed out and somewhat deep, but as a judge that'd be a detriment to the writers who like to have short and humorous pieces. And there are tasks which the judges might be clueless with, which limits what you can have in Brawl.
Having a mass vote can be hard and it disadvantages less active teams a bit (or a lot in earlier brawls), but it's the most fair system imo. Although I would like to implement some form of alternative voting, where you can vote for whom you like while still ensuring your team isn't disadvantaged (STV-esque, perhaps?).
