The interesting thing about that system (though i think i may have muffed the numbers) is that you have an option the current system lacks.

So if a post has a $100 potential payout, a 3 star rating could add to the weight of the average, making it harder to change up or down. .. which is to say, you could vote to say "i think the current payout is appropriate and should not be adjusted either way"
