The problem with this is that Jimbo, genius that he is, does not actively edit and has very limited information to base his choices on.

We could state that the top N candidates will be elected to the ArbCom, provided they receive at least X% support. The values of N and X would need to be discussed and/or simply decided by Jimbo. If fewer than N candidates have X% support, the ArbCom is smaller than desired, but would almost certainly be larger than its current size. Carbonite
Alternatively, we could just let Jimbo go down the list and pick how many arbitrators he wants. He would have to start at the top and work his way down, but he gets to decide when to stop. I would be more happy with that system, because it would be a reasonable balance of power between him and the commoners (he couldn't just pick his buddies to sit on arbcom) but it would prevent situations where, say, one year not a lot of people run for ArbCom so Plautus Satire gets elected by default.
