Consumerium has the opposite system where '''voting is [[#The trick is in the counting|open]] though anonymized for consumer comfort and security''' and vote counting is '''[[#The trick is in the counting|closed]] and tunable''' which is possible because there is '''no requirement to reach a consensus''' like there is when electing elected representatives of the people in democratic elections.

Everybody will be able to see what everybody voted but not know which votes were cast by whom. It would enrich the Consumium social media game experience to be able to share sub-sets of your votes with your friends or even publish some sets of your votes for all to see. Forming teams and factions that draw and aggregate from team/faction members' votes sub-sets seems a likely feature.

Everybody may vote on any thing (it should be somehow related to production, trading or shopping),  or  but only the following will be tallied [[:Category:Companies|Companies]], [[:Category:Brands|Brands]], [[:Category:Products|Products]], [[:Category:Product groups|Product groups]], [[Category:Countries]] and [[:Cateogry:Areas|Areas]]. If Votes overlap or conflict, the first or last vote encountered will be counted. This is yet to be decided.
