It amounts to the same thing in practical terms - the description "random" applies to the lack of actual case for the votes and does not imply that all random stage votes will be truely random.
What? Empking's reason was "yawetag wrote:Especially when 1) NONE of them even hinted it was, and 2) This was done within a few posts.
Then, of course, we know charter's vote was not made with ill intent.

However, I still don't like how you refused to answer the question until yours was answered, since this suggests that your answer could have been dependent upon the answer given by one of the bandwagoners.
Even if this was the case, as the bandwagon approached L-1 any townies would have unvoted because their non-serious bandwagon was unjustifiable.yawetag wrote:Let's say there's 3 of them.

Yeah, like a townie would quickhammer on a 100% unsupported case.
It's entirely unfeasible to say that (a) townies would keep their votes, or (b) scum would risk drawing attention by pushing it as far as L-1 (bear in mind that both (a) and (b) would need to occur for scum to get it to L-1).
