GM Doug's Path Of Kings [Outpost IV] (Inactive)

Game Master Doug Hahn

We will be finished once you choose your lodge. Please take this time to not only vote but write any closing scenes you would like for your character. I always enjoy those!

without Ionic, and counting first choice as 3 pts, 2nd as 2, and 3rd as 1...

1: 8
2: 11
3: 12

For the record, I don't really care which site gets picked for the lodge, but I do likes my voting system comparisons. I thought this might be a good example of how the IMO far superior ranked-choice voting method compares to the US standard first-past-the-post voting method.

Ranked-choice voting is decided by the redistribution of last place votes to the remaining candidates in a repeating manner until one candidate ends up with more than half the votes.

In the absence of Ionic's vote, we have the following ranked choice votes:

Fafrd: 3, 1, 2
Chulyin: 2, 3, 1
Farzin: 1, 2, 3
Jayma: 2, 3, 1
Sunfire: 3, 2, 1

So for for the first round of counting, we get:

Round 1 - 1: 1, 2: 2, 3: 2

No majority yet, so the last place votes for 1 get redistributed to 2 & 3 based on their second choice, giving us...

Round 2 - 2: 3, 3: 2

2 now has a majority of the votes, and so is declared the winner.

It should be interesting to see how Ionic votes. Given an even number of people voting, there is the possibility of a tie.

That is how I understand it too, Jayma. San Francisco has used RCV for its citywide offices for about 15 years now, and so do some other CA cities we have players living in!

Your chronicles are here.

Let me know if something needs to be changed. You all got 2 extra rep with Horizon Hunters for finding the maps.

The game is sent in for reporting under session ID 3 at Outpost IV.

Barring any changes needed, I'll mark this game inactive in 24 hours.

This was a really fun group! I really enjoyed the RP, and all the moments each character got to have — thank you!

Looks good, a pleasure as always.

How time flies when you're having fun. This has to be the fastest PbP scenario I've ever played. There are quests I've been on that have taken longer.

Thank you GM Doug for a job well done and for keeping things moving along at a good clip. Thanks too to the players for all the enjoyable RPing, as well as for keeping up with the pace and working so well together. I hope to play with you all again soon.

Got it, and everything looks good.

Thanks so much, GM Doug and everyone!

Thanks everyone for the great game and thank so much for running Doug.

I enjoyed everyone's characters, and I'm always sad when it's time to say goodbye. I hope we can catch another game sometime!

Wow, this was a fast one!

I had a great time! Thank you GM Doug and everyone!
