Hmm yes, there are indeed some signs of attempts to skew the results by people 
voting for very extreme values. This may be fixed by the median already?
And yes, it would indeed be nice to have some way to deal with them beyond 
manually excluding people from voting/estimating
- if we do manually exclude certain estimates the resulting discussion will be 
lots of great fun :|

So overall, I am open to looking at those methods, just *after* trying with 
the original poll method first :)

Let's just shrug this subthread off as a misunderstanding please, ok? :)
I'll go to bed now and finish the main spreadsheets ASAP this week.
You'll also get raw CSVs then to experiment with, so if the original method 
does not cope well with manipulation you can try to prove it with data then :)

Good night & thanks for the clarifications!
