3. In case of tie, the one with the least views wins.
4. If the tie persist, the thread posted is chosen at random from the available choices with the highest weighted average with the lowest numbers of views that day.
5. If a user votes twice that day, he will be prompted if he would rather have this particular thread gets his vote or the previous thread.

Note that these rules greatly favor the lowest number of view threads. A thread that was not viewed once that day, would not have been voted once either, so they will have a vote count of 0, which will not make it the highest vote count.

thanks for your suggestion - unfortunately i think that process might be a bit to complicated for what i’m after.
