Fantasy Draft IV Voting Poll

[Meliva]

I do understand what you asked but like I said my first and second vote would go to dezs

Clearly you don't. In any sort of election or poll that allows second votes, you are meant to pick your favored pick then whoever you think/want would be 2nd best. To say both first and second go to the same person, implies you think they are the best AND 2nd best-which is impossible. But I suppose that just means deep down you know dez isn't the best, and your simply lying to yourself they are. Its okay mate, I know denial can be rough, but you gotta accept it mate. Roo is the clear best.

Search your feelings-you know it to be true.

I searched and found none. I understand what Wolfie is saying, that if he had a second choice he would choose my team or none. He doesn't see a second choice.

I am tired of delusional comments my both votes go to the same team because this team is that superior that it takes first two places

[DezNutz]

Yeah, the press-gang.

Sorry to cross-post, but how do you know about press-gangs but don't know about peanut butter and ladies?

I haven't heard of them before from history or anything. Send me a message if you'd care to tell me.

Google Search. It's a top search result.

Oh that movie!

Another day gone by, and its still neck and neck between Pul and Roo. Looks like Dez is slowly catching up from 3rd, shadow behind in 4th and Lodswe trailing behind. This is so fun to watch. I think it may end up with a tie breaker at this rate.

My bet is still that Pul will win, with roo in second. Dez will be 3rd shadow 4th and lod 5th. So what do the rest of you guys think the ranks will be?

[ChaIbaud]

I wonder how many votes are from active accounts and how many are from alts..

[not a pirate]

I'm just gonna go ahead and say it. I'll take a 10% cut of the winning team's earnings for my vote. That's final.

First, I'd like to encourage more players to vote. Right now, there are 66 votes in the poll, and there are 55 players on the teams. I hope the low number of voters is due to people weighing their votes very carefully, considering all of the information and debating the merits of each team.

Most of the team members are well known by anyone who has read player guides, the forums or paid attention as they've played PG. I know I've attacked or been attacked on the plunder board by many of them, been lit up with voodoo by a couple of them, gotten help, advice or expensive lessons
from quite a few of them. But I suspect most of you don't know us rookies very well (I was unfamiliar with a couple of them). So here's what I found by checking biographies and achievements, in the order that we joined the game (only the highest title attained is listed here):

Anne_Bonny #75947

Witte de With #77178

That information may or may not mean much to you, depending on your viewpoint. There are also many other stats that aren't available through the biographies, such as number of ships plundered, number of ships or fleets owned, etc. Certainly different play styles will produce different results.

Congratulations to all of my fellow rookies for being drafted.
