So the overall social utility of the tie should be: [(1/2 + 1/4) + (1/2) + (0 + 1/4)] / 3 = 1/2 For comparison, the overall social utility if one of the following was the sole winner would be: A wins: 1/2 B wins: 1/2 C wins: 1/3 So the tie between A and B seems oddly appropriate in terms of SU. ---- Election-methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
