About Guided Voting<\/span><\/h2>

The Guided Voting mode walks you through all claims in a discussion which you have not yet voted on. If there are inconsistencies in your voting, such as if you’ve voted a con as having a high impact on a parent claim but also voted that parent claim as high impact, Guided Voting also displays these for review. Guided Voting mode also hides others’ votes to help users avoid bias (i.e. to avoid voting “with the crowd”, or expressing stronger feelings on a claim to “balance out” others’ votes they disagree with).<\/span><\/p>

Guided Voting mode moves you sequentially through a discussion from top to bottom. It begins in the top 3 levels of the debate, then progresses to levels 4 through 6, and so on, until you have voted on all claims in the discussion.<\/span><\/p>

Voting <\/span>must be enabled<\/span> in a discussion to use Guided Voting mode.<\/span><\/p>
