I skimmed it. One thing that caught my attention is the so-called "RA":
Prior to voting, voters must communicate their intent
to participate with a Registration Authority (RA).
Nowhere is it discussed what exactly is the RA, who is part of it etc. Moderators are supposedly "randomly" chosen and given a random amount of time to do their job, but
Reputation influences moderator selection. Relatively high
positive reputation increases the odds of selection while
negative reputation decreases it. This positive contributor
bias aims to contain the influence of special interest groups.
That's not random and leaves space to game the system. I think giving more moderating time to higher rep would be better than choosing moderators from a small pool of users.
