Hi, We have a big problem. In the rules, it says: If a vote comes to a tie, then it is merely treated as a lost vote. I think: The vote is lost. Another player thinks: The last cast vote is canceled and then the score is looked at. Example: it is 29 to 31. I cast 2 votes against with a vote card. Then it is 31 to 31. I cast the last vote. The vote comes to a tie, 31 to 31. The other player thinks, my vote, the last one, is canceled and the score is 29 to 31 again. Bye Ruud, Bart, Michel, Mark.

Why in the world would the last vote be cancelled? Pretty much, it _should_ be a tie(unless I'm forgetting something weird...)

If, after all votes have been used, the vote is tied, then the vote fails. Tom Wylie rec.games.trading-cards.* Network Representative for aa...@hal.com Wizards of the Coast, Inc.

[ quoted text not captured ] You were right, the vote is lost. There can be no ties the other way. Say someone had played Elder KIndred Network on the vote when it seemed clear that you would lose, but you had the votes to bring it up to a tie. That way you would onnly lose the one pool. Cliff>
