In the rule “Next Emperor Showdown”, replace “if there is a tie in which option is selected by the most non-blank Ballots, or the option selected by the most Ballots is “Meta”” with:-
if the option selected by the most Ballots is “Meta”
And add another bullet point before the first:-
- if there is a tie in which option is selected by the most non-blank Ballots, the date “Friday 30 April” shall be replaced with a date two days after it, throughout this rule
Not sure that a tied vote should trigger a Metadynasty - if pro-Meta players are in a minority, they’d just have to engineer a tie to get the result they want (and even a single pro-Meta player could force a tie in a close race). This proposes extending the election by two days, each time we end up with a tie-break.
Probably a better solution than mine. (Although the flavour is hilarious: Oh no, a tie! Let’s postpone Christmas, I mean polling day!)
