STAR is good for the existence of ideas but not for actually getting third party candidates elected. It stands for Score Then Automatic Run off. The top two candidates advance to the Automatic Run off. That's just the FPTP with a dressing that makes third party voters feel better.

RCP actually empowers third party voters, is easy to understand, and is already being adopted.
