Of course there's no guarantee the delegate is any more informed than the individual voter, but as a crude method - with not really much scope for improvement given the nature of the game - it's fairly effective.
Why should they follow the discussions on this forum? There's not much discussion, just the same old people being shitty to those they disagree with or simply don't like.
There is lots of meaningful discussion here. There are plenty of players here who are willing to teach players and give pointers on proposals. This discussion boards allows the WA to Foster a community of teaching and debate.
It is very important new and even experienced authors post here to proof their drafts and pick up skills.
