Yup, I sure did. I'm so used to using a 24 hour clock instead of Ante Meridian or Post Meridian that I automatically look at 08:00 at 08:00 in the morning rather than the evening. vOv Mea Culpa.Dave wrote:I think Aed may have jumped the gun on the reset by 12 hours... but as the reset and rules-change seems to been pushed through by executive action while the Legislature was out of session for the holiday I guess we might as well go with the flow

Re: Wapsi Forum Game: Ruler of Island Cafe 296
I think it's more to the point that the voters are split into two camps, each rooting for one major character. Using your down-vote on (e.g.) Shelly at this point, rather than on your favored character's opponent, works out to be almost the same as a vote against your favorite.jwhouk wrote:No one wants to take out Shelly, hm?
I held off voting against M as long as I could but MerchManDan threw down the gauntlet and I sorta felt I had to counter in kind.

Re: Wapsi Forum Game: Ruler of Island Cafe 296
ME?! What'd I do? I certainly don't feel good about voting down Kath yesterday. (well, Saturday, now. Shoot.)
Anyhow, looks like I missed Sunday, so here's my vote for Monday:

[8] Monica
[0] Shelly (Eliminated)

I understand. I am not thrilled about down-voting Katherine either. I suspect that both ladies would be horrified at either being preferred to the other and would probably try to give the crown away to their friend.
Personally, I'd rather have a choice of two votes: two up-votes, one up-vote and one down-vote, or two down-votes. Another alternative is to have one vote (up or down) and proceed from there. Isn't democracy grand in Wapsi land?

If we change the voting rules again, at this late stage of the game, it'll feel like playing 52 Pick-Up at midnight in a tornado And, of course, the sphinxes could show up, and override the results anyway.Aed wrote:

No rule changes. End of this week, whomever is in the lead is the Queen of IC296.
