(1,078 posts)I agree with the others in this thread that want to still see the results of juries they've served on. Respectfully, I think the rule about not 'posting the results after' should be sufficient to tamp down any drama on the subject.
I'd also like to bring up the change regarding 'no comments (in the jury form) from the jurors'. I don't understand the reasoning behind that. Jurors are already prohibited from saying anything in those comments that are out of line. I think it serves a purpose (for other jurors, the alerter and the alertee) to see a juror's reasoning behind a vote.
Also, about the different categories: since it's a binary result (hide or don't hide) don't the "Clearly breaks a rule" and "close call" count exactly the same as each other (likewise a "doesn't quite break a rule" & "Clearly doesn't break a rule" . Why four categories vs two if the result will be exactly the same.
