Would it matter that some comparisons are not made e.g that F and B in the above example, are not compared? Would it necessarily be more or less time consuming that either of the other two methods described above (vote-dialogue-vote, or open unstructured dialogue)?

Hi Rick,
I have never completed MSC in the way suggested, and I think it would take longer than a more general discussion where people identify which they believe is the MSC and why.
From my perspective the value of MSC is in the discussions around selecting the MSC which surface values. I am not sure whether this approach would promote or reduce this.

Consider a set of MSC stories, randomly ordered: B D, A, F, E, C. The panel members then compare B and D, to identify the most significant. They choose B. They then compare B to the next story in the random list - A. They select A. They then compare A to F. They select A. They then compare F to E. They then select E. They then compare E to C. They select E. That is their final choice. There were 5 comparisons (N-1). Every story does not have to be compared to every other story because we are not looking for a full ranking, just the top most ranking item.
