I don't see a better suggestion coming for how to deal with ties; with a fairly random number of users active at any one time, the only other way to mend this properly is to have one user (preferably one who's been around for awhile) to sit out every vote so in the event of a tie, they can break it.

I agree that we should have a tiebreaker (who doesn't?), but we shouldn't settle on a random system. Maybe have only the admin votes count or something, but don't rely on randomness for something like this.

For example, assume the wiki had 100 members. 49 voted for option A, while 51 voted for option B. While it is true that, technically, option B won, the difference was minimal (1% - or 1 vote - in fact). This result is therefore meaningless.
