Hello, I've been thinking about 3-slot methods that combine Top Ratings, Approval and Pairwise Opposition information (all concepts that are compatible with FBC and Independence from Irrelevant Ballots) to produce a method that meets those criteria and also 3-slot Majority for Solid Coalitions and mono-raise and also which has its LNHarm and LNHelp problems in approximate balance.
In my last message in this thread I suggested "one possibility" to be: "If any candidates have a top-ratings score not smaller than their MPO score, disqualify the other candidates. Elect the undisqualified candidate with the highest Approval-minus-MPO score". This has now firmed as my preferred 3-slot (FBC complying) method. Any comments? I have no idea what it should be called.
