If you do not like this calculated overall ranking, change the ranking of these proposals in your ranking list, or add new proposals (and rank them high), or indicate which proposals are incompatible with other proposals.
The proposals ranked as acceptable are categorized as positive (acceptable) by enough voters, with “enough” defined such that the average acceptance percentage exceeds the threshold percentage indicated below. If some participants do not think these acceptable proposals would constitute a fair resolution, then more proposals may need to be added, or the existing proposals need to be ranked differently. If some of the acceptable proposals are incompatible with one another, some incompatibility voting is also needed. If enough participants are happy with the acceptable proposals, combine the descriptions of the acceptable proposals into a contract and ask the participants if they are willing to accept the contract as a resolution to this negotiation case.
The unpopular proposals are not popular enough to be acceptable. If you believe a proposal does not belong here, either rank it higher or create two or more proposals that split up independent parts of this proposal. Also consider explaining to other participants why you think they should rank it higher.
The incompatible proposals are incompatible with the acceptable proposals. Incompatibility is determined by how many participants voted to indicate incompatibility, with the threshold determined by the incompatibility percentage number indicated below. If a proposal in this category is not really incompatible with any acceptable proposals, participants should change their incompatibility votes. Or if the administrator has designated the proposal as incompatible, ask the administrator to reconsider this designation.
Majority threshold: 7 votes out of 12 (calculated from 51%)
Minority threshold percentage: 20%
Acceptance criteria (either “average” or “each”): Average
Incompatibility vote threshold percentage: 70%
