I think the DP voting for lamppost makes a LOT of sense. Usually a night poll has some kind of outcome, but the ayers don't always know what it will be. There are different variations on it though. 1. The winning option affect all the players in the same way. This seems unlikely in this case because the post made it clear we each went through with our own individual choices. 2. The people who voted for the winning option all are affected, or one or more of the voters for the winning option are affected. Having not been informed of anything I know it is not all of us, but it might be one or more of us for all I know. 3. Each option correlates to a player or alignment, the winning option benefits/harms that particular alignment. Again it see,s unlikely given how the post was written.
Host: did anyone have information on the night poll before it ended? Does anyone know now the effect it had, if any?
If we are given an answer to this it might make a difference as to how I view DP.
As it stands now, not knowing the answer, this point Golden brought up seems solid because the baddies would not know how this poll might affect the game. If it were either 2 or 3, it would be good strategy on their part to have someone from their team each voting for a different option. If each option has a different effect, then having one voter in each group optimizes their chances of picking up a worthwhile prize or at the least nets them the most indoor action. If the winning option voters get something for voting for the winning option, then having a voter in each option again optimizes their chances of gaining a possible prize.
However, if they had info, I am more likely to look at people who voted for Beaver Dam than I am DP.
