    Hold on, that's not fair..... the election should be one vote per player not per household

    otherwise I would make ten different houses form a political party and I'd always win election

    And then you'd be kicked from the game, that's how that works

    Well , you can make two, just like everyone else and vote twice.

    There's still time. But if you vote all the same way as your first character it looks to be meta-gaming (since we can see votes already). Also this needs to be an active, separate personality familiarly. So you need to spend a good amount of time playing each family, otherwise their actions won't count.

    If you noticed, both of Ponti's chars voted for different people.

    Its the principle behind it, I don't think players who are roleplaying more then one house should have an unfair advantage

    LW is it fair to make a second character just to vote for yourself with him? I don't think he's even old enough to sit in the senate

    His secondary character is part of the same family as the first character, so no he can't be in the senate yet, he has to get voted into it

    these are all technicalities i can just create a completely new house


    The point is I'm against more than 1 vote per person but I'm not going let other people have the advantage

    You realise how blatant you made that, right? He still can't vote, as he's not even on the senate.

    I'm trying to make a point; that it should only be 1 vote per player

    Why should it? I think we can trust players who have two families to not blatantly advance each other's interests with no IC justification at all (which is what you are doing now, while "trying to prove a point") as that is metagaming.

    Also, it isn't one vote per player. It's one vote per SENATOR. At this stage there is only one Senator per house - they've got to be voted into a magistrates position to gain senatorial status.

    Ponti also votd for completely different people. Simply put, he's using his two families differently with IC justification because he's the only person who has taken the time to sign two - all legal in the rules.

    Actually LW you can just be removed from the game for abusing that

    In fact it clearly says somewhere in Ponti's rules that you can have more than one family if they are equal, seperate, and self-interested and that neither feed into the other without legitimate justification for them to do so.

    no, he is not voting for himself at all (insert sarcasm)

    the only difference is the quaestors
