Day 1


When the votes were finished on the first day, as promised Admiral Dane stood up and tallied them, then gave the result.

“It seems we have a tied vote between two members of this crew.”

Admiral Dane then looked a bit puzzled, as if he didn’t know what to do next.

“Hrmm… I didn’t expect there to be a tie. There’s no protocol for what happens after a tie.”

The inhabitants of the GFS Olympus now looked worried. What would Admiral Dane do?

“I think that, since you have named me as director of this process, you must yield to my judgment on this matter. I have not yet decided what must follow; you must allow me time to think. When I have decided, I will announce the procedure and it shall be executed.”

The GF crew looked satisfied with this answer, while the IDFH fighters were less than pleased. There was no telling what Dane’s policy toward the IDFH could be, nor what how this would affect his decision.
