In reply to the discussion: Do you like the new jury system? [View all]MH1
(18,547 posts)7. I did not see anything like that. Maybe it depends on what rule is selected?
In the two juries I did there was just the box stating the rule and asking if I was willing to enforce it, then the one with the post and the 4 options.
I was able to expand the posts leading to the alerted post and felt that was context enough in the two cases I had. Maybe once I do a few more I'll see some where I share your issue. It does seem possible that the context could be insufficient. But I think in that case you just go with your gut based on what you can see.
Both of my cases so far were "close, but ..." One went one way, one the other. I took some time deciding, but oddly, afterward I decided I was definitely right in my choice.

I think there are some positive elements, but I do feel a bit used after serving with no feedback

I don't like it. So I have decided how I will vote from here on out for all juries.

I'll get right back to you on that after I check the TOS to see if I can alert on you
