Another *bad* winner example using +100 to -100 scale votes --

2 A    (1)       B      (0)
1 B (100)      A (-100)

3

Guess who wins despite very low scale (SU) numbers ???

Does B (who may have voted for himself and really hates A) declare victory 
due to his high *average* (and above zero) SU  (compared to A and his below 
zero SU average) ???

What does the median voter think ???

Adding a few zeros to the *numbers of votes* (regardless of the SU values) 
does not change the results.
