1. I’ll be publicly listing the Votes after they have all been submitted, so that every player can verify that I tallied them up correctly. If this means that someone is ‘caught’ being deceptive, then that’s out of my hands. Choose who you trust very carefully. And remember, if there is a tie vote, we go to my Secret Tie-Breaker Round!

2. The ‘30 minute heads up’ was simply an informal notice. I see no problem with people discussing the situation prior to the ‘official’ start. What’s more critical is the stop time. Once that occurs, I will actually be requesting no more public discussion in this thread, and nothing more than direct Tubmails to me with your votes. No changing votes after you’ve sent them in.

I think it’s a pretty clear-cut contest. Feel free to continue asking questions, though.

That makes things much more clear. People still aren’t held to their claims, though, and the game structure makes lying far more admissible than in a meatspace prisoner’s dilemma with serious things at stake, such as the clbumic jail time.
