Welcome, [[User:Culi]]. I saw some messages from a new subscriber to EM-list named "Culi" on the election methods list ("[http://lists.electorama.com/pipermail/election-methods-electorama.com/2022-January/003424.html Coombs method and typical RCV hybrid]" on January 22, for example), and I'm guessing you might be the same person. I see from [[Special:Contributions/Culi|your first contribution]] that you made a helpful fix to a link, and you linked to a site that I don't think we'd linked to before, but Jobst Heitzig appears to be involved (and we may want to create a [[Vodle]] page on electowiki). The "Culi" coincidence seems like a big enough coincidence not to call out. Well, regardless of whether you're the same person as EM-list Culi, welcome to [[electowiki]]. I'll tell you what I tell many new editors that I notice: please read "'''[[User:RobLa/Welcome]]'''". I hope you continue to contribute to electowiki!-- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 05:21, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
: Hey Rob! Not sure if you get notifications for my talk page, but it is indeed the same culi. Is this a different Rob than the Rob Latchford on the mailing list? Thanks for the link, I'll make sure to check it out --[[User:Culi|Culi]] ([[User talk:Culi|talk]]) 06:17, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
:: Cool. I'm Rob Lanphier (not Latchford). I started the [[EM-list]] back in 1996. I don't believe we have a "Rob Latchford", though we also have a person named "Rob LeGrand" that used to be a frequent poster (e.g. [http://lists.electorama.com/pipermail/election-methods-electorama.com//2002-February/author.html#105450 his February 2002 posts]). He still maintains a voting calculator inspired by my voting calulator: https://www.cs.angelo.edu/~rlegrand/rbvote/calc.html -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 06:38, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
::: Ah, my mistake. Thanks for the welcome. And wow! Not sure if you saw my messages in the mailing list, but I'm working on something similar [https://elegant-shaw-2cb49a.netlify.app/votevote here]! Although mine is mostly a toy. The central idea with it is that you can start with a scored ballot and from that generate all sorts of other ballots (e.g. ranked for IRV, approval for approval method, etc). So far I've implemented ~18 different methods including IRV, STAR, Approval, Copeland, Bucklin, and more. It seems like your calendar is down right now, but I managed to find an archive. Looks pretty useful. Perhaps some day I'll turn my site into an actual tool as well --[[User:Culi|Culi]] ([[User talk:Culi|talk]]) 07:38, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
:::: PS just realized Rob Latchford is from a different mailing list I'm in. Apologies for the mix up haha --[[User:Culi|Culi]] ([[User talk:Culi|talk]]) 23:35, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
