Master Nog: If we want to keep Legate as a captain after there has been a referendum should we re-vote him or just not vote for the new person?

I'm not sure if I got your point right but here's an answer to what I thought you meant.

If no one contests his Captaincy he stays in the office. You have kind of selected him "as for now", as long until someone of you wish to have another Captain and vote for it.

Now clearly other votes have been given already toDay and the challenge has been made. So you will be voting for a Captain toDay. The one gaining the most votes will be your Captain.

If it is Legate you choose toDay it will be his second Day in office and he will gain the added powers. If it is someone else the new C. will only have the draw-deciding powers.

In case of a draw in the Captaincy-election itself the old Captain continues.

I hope you got your answer.


There seemed to be a few other questions as well. I'll read the thread through (I'm on the previous page right now) and will then answer the questions in one post.

So in other words: yes, once the voting starts, it's just voting. If you don't cast your vote, you are not voting for anybody. If you want to keep the previous Captain, you need to vote for him.

Thanks! That is exactly what I wanted to know.
