I was thinking, should there not be a multiplier in place for albums that appear on numerous lists?

Say Goofle puts Album A as his second choice, that would earn that album 19 points.
Say myself, Briks, Ninetails and WhateverDude put the Album B on all of our lists but at lower rankings than 2nd, say we ranked it 18th, 12th, 20th and 15th respectively.

Album B would have 16 points. Album A, Goofle voted, and say it was just Goofle that voted it, would have 19 points, would rank higher despite only being mentioned once.
Surely the album that was mentioned four times would be better representative of a Music Banter (as a whole) top 500?

This is a hypothetical. I used everyone hypothetically.
