Because there are 24 candidates, and that way you can distribute your votes amoung several candidates instead of immediately having to choose who you like best. Yeah, sorry about that Drakey. I'll PM you again and fix the problem. -------------------- -ben4808 For those who love to spam: CSM Forums RIFQ Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

Top three. This vote-shifting thing sounds like a bad idea to me, but I guess it's a bit late for that. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

I wonder... how does this happen? Drakefyre collects all the votes, then publishes them on the forum. Then what? Do the candidates have a week to shift votes, and then he announces the final results? Or do the results get updated in real-time every time someone shifts? Can you shift several times to adjust for the reactions of others? Is it possible to boot, say, the third candidate from his place by a group of unpopular candidates uniting behind one of their number? Is it possible to do the same through a very popular candidate shifting a number of their votes to another person. Say, Thuryl, me and Dolphin are in the third round, and Kelandon is fourth. Can Thuryl shift a number of his votes to Kelandon (still maintaining his first place, or possibly going to second place after me), so that Kelandon moves up to third place and Dolphin is out? It's all very fishy... [ Sunday, July 03, 2005 23:48: Message edited by: Arancaytar. You Owe it to the Door. ] -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

To Drakey: as I saw your changed e-mail address only after I'd sent my voting mail, does drakey@voicenet.com still reach you or is this invalid? -------------------- Polaris Posts: 1828 | Registered: Saturday, January 11 2003 08:00 |

That very fishiness is what makes it highly unlikely that one person could throw the election. Once Drakey has finished "tallying" the votes, he could email the candidates with their vote totals, and their rank. I would suspect that conversations might occur, and then Drakey would receive emails telling him how to redistribute votes. What would be ideal is if every candidate got an equal number of votes. And then there is that whole blood tensioning process afterwards. That sounds more like the kind of electioneering I would have been comfortable engaging in. Oh well, maybe next time. *this message has not yet been rated by the mpaa* Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Drakey, can we have an update of how many (and possibly who) have voted and who hasn't? No need to publish the votes yet, it'd just be interesting to see the turnout. -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

*Raises an eyebrow at the reasonably unecessary double-posting* *Shrugs* If the pre-primary is any indication, then I think I might be able to say one thing - despite that the majority of candidates are equally able to moderate well, including myself, who wants the votes that I might receive, as the phrase "Unlikely" comes to mind? Just razzing, of course. -------------------- Aut Tace Aut Loquere Meliora Silencio Posts: 1487 | Registered: Sunday, February 10 2002 08:00 |

Just for the thrill of it, all the candidates should shift their votes to me, making me the only candidate in the final election.
