- Advantages / Disadvantages of Distance Based Scoring Methods;
- Possible Simulation, and Request for Data;
- Description and Summary of Distance Based Methods;
- Description of Parallel Contesting Abilities;
- Consideration of the Historical Evidence;
- Possible Impact to Contest Structure (several issues);
- Details and Specifics of various methods (several related topics);
- Simulations of distance scoring;
