Seems around as proportional as MMP, while getting rid of the chaff that is the party-list.

It seems most people would hate it though. Actually needing to think about your vote? *shock* *horror*
That's not far from being STV itself.

STV is the clear winner for me out of the contending options in the referendum, and it's the one for which I'll be voting.
