I just tried digging for examples of supervotes in the wild. The idea is intriguing.
Couldn't find an aggregator that does it. Interestingly, however, it's a common voting tactic on reality competition TV (e.g. The Voice, American Idol) [1].
Does anyone have examples of supervotes in action for online communities?
