Just reading from the website... I would like use the condorcet method and if it "crashes" just use first past the post.

Look into cardinal systems. If you want good voting systems you have to consider more factors than VSE. You'll find that cardinal systems can get to similar VSEs of condorcet with far less complexities and many other benefits.
