I wasn't sure whether to make this another thread, but is there a way of using tactical voting in these elections? For instance, vote for someone solely for the purpose that someone else doesn't get in etc? I'm thick so I'd benefit from having the method spelled out to me:)
Oh sure. Suppose you prefer Carcharoth ahead of WJBscribe and Wizardman, even though you would be willing to support any of them. In that case, you can vote to support Carcharoth and oppose WJBscribe and Wizardman, even if on a metric of "yes or no" you would vote "yes" to all three.
My personal rule of thumb is that if my opinion on someone is more or less neutral, I will abstain from voting unless they are standing in the way of someone who I support, in which case I will oppose them. Such is the case for Vassyana, for example--I don't feel strongly about that candidate, but there are some excellent candidates just a few percentage points behind.
