   A couple of questions:
  1. Will these weightings be made available on a page somewhere so everyone can see them anytime?

I don’t know. Good question. I think you could argue that both ways, but probably it’s a good idea.

I would think that making the weightings available to the public would lead to temptation to abuse the system. IMO.

Maybe. But then abuse of the system would lead to time-outs, would it not? If the admins start to see the page leading to too much abuse, I guess maybe then would be a good time to look at removing it.

I don’t think this is a question of honesty, simply pushing the limits. Like everyone does with their tax return. I think it’s human nature, and I don’t think having such a page will have such a large effect. But I could be wrong.
