I don't think the mods can organize a poll in this manner (maybe they can I don't know), and so this is what we have.
IE if you think Theissen is our best prospect, but most other people think he is the worst. You go through this entire process voting for one guy each time? That member's voting capability has been skewed because he hasn't ranked people (like the title suggests) just been trying to push his favorite prospect up the list. If you think he's first grgeat. He gets your one first place vote and you move on to who you think is 2nd place.
I think that gives a more accurate depiction of the overall consensus.

Not everyone can decisively just form a big ranking list of all our prospects.
Bennett, Gaudreau and even Sven were pretty obvious, but it becomes a crapshoot after that. I like the format Bingo is using because it helps with posters who are indecisive (me) about who fits where, past a certain threshold.
If what you're suggesting was implemented, like a points system with #1 getting the most, #30 getting a single point etc, I feel that'd be much more likely to result in a mixed up hodgepodge of middle dwellers with still no real distinguished ranking rather than the clean process of elimination we're using currently.
