If any of you wish to save Zeb, it would be wise to target Luke though I will have no part since I already voted

Targeting of Luke has begun. His numbers are now routinely ahead of Saint Blessed Being Roger's.


Does anyone kind of feel there may, just may be multi-voting going on? Or did all of the sudden more lurkers showed up? I know we get two votes this time but gee, the numbers seem to be up.

Vasix if you take the current numbers and divide them by two the number of people having voted already is 93. Last poll indicated that 131 people voted. I don't think current numbers are out of the ordinary or indicative of multi-voting.

How can multi-voting happen? I've found out that you can only vote once from an ip address. Unless you have many computers at work and had the time to log in on each of them.

Wcv, why would you divide the current total by 2?

Two votes per person.

Oh, I thought that meant that 188 had voted for 2 people, no?

What I did was take the total number of votes per player and added them to get a total of 186 votes having been cast. Since each voter is voting for 2 people, you would divide the total by 2 in order to determine the number of people casting votes.

Alright, I get it now. I can't believe I didn't get it the first time. Computer science major should know his math. :-(

WCV current vote totals don't have the late voters and I am thinking there will be a much heavier late voting turnout this time.

And there is the ABILITY to cast only one vote which makes some of our assumptions a bit soft. Granted, its hard to think why you would cast one but reasons could be there.

My bet: voting will be up. And multivoting is possible explanation. Along with increased lurker vote.

Vasix I didn't mean to imply that no one out there is contemplating and/or has not already cast multi-votes. I just don't think the CURRENT numbers support that. I know I'm waiting till we are almost to the finish line to vote.

And yes, some may only be casting one vote so that could skew the voter total.

When the final numbers are in you may very well be right regarding higher voting numbers.

Why would anyone want to skew the vote total? If a person only voted for one BG, does it give that BG two votes? If not, can they return at a later time to place their second vote?

You cannot return to place your second vote.
I forgot to vote for 2 people when I voted... so when I tried to go back in it said I already voted and just displayed the current results.

Well I guess it's possible that someone only voted for one player because they didn't feel strongly enough about the remaining players for them to feel like they should have a definitive say in their player status.

I don't know the answer to your third question. I would think they would be able to return to cast their second vote but don't know that for certain.

Sorry, I didn't see your post Norwican. I guess that answers that question! Thanks.

Down to the last hour, still too close to call on the 2nd banishment:

Xenia (66) 32%
Zebulon (53) 25%
Roger_Ramjet (42) 20%
Luke (47) 23%

Its going to be close for 2nd for sure.

a lot more people voted this week than last. Last weeks count total was 141, this week is already over 200

Norequerdo, as pointed by someone above, the actual number of "people" who voted is potentially 1/2 of the total votes as you vote for 2 people to be banished.

true but a final vote count of last week of 141 and a vote today so far of 113, is still a jump even if you divide by 2.

The polls are closed. Nor last week you didn't divide the vote by 2 because we were only voting for one player due to Snave's walk-out. I didn't see the final tally, even though I got my vote in right under the wire...whew! Made my vote, closed it out and went back to check how close they were and the poll had closed. I almost missed it, although I'm sure my vote had no impact on the outcome whatsoever.

ok got you Wc, that means this week was a much lower turn out than last week if you consider that 141 votes for one person last week would translate to 282 votes for two people this week.

Dammit! I have 4 friends who want to signup here and they still haven't received their confirmation emails. Now the polls are closed! This sucks!

This game is going to be boring without Zeb.

Yes if everybody voted for two players. As Norwican pointed out, she forgot to vote for two players and was not allowed to cast her second vote, so there may be others who only voted for one player.

now that i am reading this....i am thinking that you guys are saying that if you want to get two votes in, then you have to do it at the same time...i don't think very many people got that....hell i'm here all the time and i didn't get it...so a lot of people prolly only put in one vote...i would have anyway....just this time because of Madame X
