    Huh.

    So are we using votes right now to determine which of the three eligible laws are elected, and then using whatever votes are left to re-do that law?

    edit: Or is this some nightmare scenario where we all just throw votes at any of the three, and all three are re-determined?

    Yes: votes spent on this Agenda will not be available for the re-vote on the elected law.

    Oh no.
    We're voting on four Agendas.
    The other game is going to cruise past us.

    Ok. So there's the just elected VP hot potato that I believe we ended up with. And we have the one that beefed up one of Winnu's planets and the one that gives Winnu extra trade goods whenever they refresh commodities. Fun times.

    But what if someone wants to play a rider, so then we could spend all sorts of extra time trying to negotiate with each other as to whether to choose the one that would get the rider, maybe throw out a bribe or two to do so, and then do it all over again when we actually re-vote on the law where we did all this the first time!

    I say we elect Letnev for a VP again for what it's worth because that clearly needs a recount.

    No riders.

    I think we should spread the love of trade goods around by electing a new commerce minister.

    Sisyphus is looking at us in horror, thankful that his project is so much more meaningful than this Agenda phase.

    Right, if we can get @mrbody to confirm his apathy then I think we can get to voting

    If people want to re-vote on commerce minister, we're all going to need to contribute enough votes so that discrider can't just throw 17 votes at it and ensure that we end up re-voting on the VP hot potato instead.

    But let's get on with the voting asap and out of this agenda phase regardless. Even if we just rush to get to re-voting the VP.

    2 votes for Minister of Commerce.

    That makes 7 votes for Commerce, 17 votes for the Throne Shard VP.

    @Mojo_Jojo to decide.

    We can probably go straight to voting here, right?

    Edit: somehow I missed the post directly above mine which shows that there is indeed some wrangling to be done

    Cassandra was a Greek prophet who was cursed to always tell the truth but no-one would believe her.
    The Naalu are prophetic aliens.
    Revoting on the VP does rather make it easy to transfer and render the first vote meaningless.
    Being prophetic makes me think you're stuck in this vote hell somewhat longer than the rest of us.
