Sounds a heck of a lot like [Instant-Runoff](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting) / Preferential voting, while the previous idea sounds a lot like [dot voting](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot-voting).

(We’ve gotten _tons_ of interest in dot voting, and have implemented it in Loomio. Instant run-off tends to be slightly less easy-to-understand and thus slightly more misused in my view.)
