AV+ is essentially a variant on MMS; there are many different names for systems with few aqctual differences; I think MMS has straight FPTP for constituencies whereas AV+ has AV for constituencies.

I dislike any system that embeds party loyalty and partizanship, and both through top up lists do this; my distinct preference is for STV, after that I prefer AV+, then MMS, then AV, then FPTP, then PR(open list) and lastly PR (closed list).

There are a variety of methods for running MMS; the German version works, for example. But my democratic instincts like to give choice and control to voters first, ergo STV—then I can vote for a decent Green or a decent LibDem as 1st vote, but know that ultimately my vote will affect the outcome regardless.
