In this method, each candidate can pre-rate other candidates "OK", "conditionally OK", or "bad". If they do not explicitly pre-rate, they are considered to pre-rate all others "conditionally OK". Once all pre-ratings have been submitted, all "conditionally OK" pre-ratings are turned to "Bad" if the pre-rating coming from the other candidate is "Bad", and to "OK" otherwise. For example, if candidate A pre-rates candidate B "conditionally OK" and B pre-rates A "bad", A's pre-rating of B turns to "bad"; if A pre-rates B "conditionally OK" and B pre-rates A "OK" or "conditionally OK", A's pre-rating of B turns to "OK". Candidate ratings are public information.

When a voter leaves a candidate X blank/unrated, and rates exactly one other candidate Y as "Good", that counts as rating X as "OK" if Y rated X "OK". Otherwise, it counts as rating X "Bad". Implicit OKs in this sense are counted as lower than explicit OKs in step 3.

For example, if I rated only Aurelio "good" and left Beth and Chung blank; and Aurelio rated Beth as "OK" and Chung as "Bad", then I'd count as giving those ratings. If I'd also rated Amy "good", then my blank rating for Beth would count as "bad", no matter what Amy and Aurelio said.
