Just a reminder voting ends 7 PM Central Time Tomorrow!

by **Thal Dorthat** » Fri Oct 27, 2023 5:01 pm

Poll closed. I'm sorry that I forgot to mention I meant Central Time.

We will have to discuss what to do now, as we have a tie.

My best bet is that we do some sort of TG What number is closer/RPS.

My original suggestion:

Thal Dorthat wrote:Since we are neck-and-neck, should we discuss a contingency plan for a tie?

My suggestion: 1 representative from each side (Pro-Click and Anti-Click) will give me a number. If their number is closest to my number, their side will win and the other will lose. I will TG the other reps if they won or lost and how close their number was compared to the other number. Who has some other idea?

I think we should go with the pick a number thing. If so, could I be the Pro-Click representative?

Yes. We just need an anti-click one now.

I mean, you could hold it. I can TG you the number as long as you tell no one else.
