Are you sure? Influence matters to Chanc elections right? I must've done something wrong.

Or I did something wrong. It has certainly happened before.

Yeah, I always count the influence and elector vote and total it into what I call "voting power".

Nevermind, the Swabians just made their decision. Numberwise, it is definitly over now.

When I first said something, Fritz still could have won if all of the 7 people who hadn't voted, voted for Fritz.

There is a voting power of 83.

42 gets you the Chancellorship.

At the time of our posts, Arnold had 41.

So, Fritz needed the 4 Swabians who hadn't voted, the 2 Franconians who hadn't voted, and Fredericus Erlach.

It looks like the Swabians have finally made their decision, so this race is over.

(as I mentioned earlier, most of the Swabians had voted for edicts but had conspicuously avoided the Chancellor poll. Hence my theory that they were "hedging their bets".)

I counted things the same way, I just gave someone one extra 'point' with 12 votes and had Arnold at 42 already. Works out the same. :)

my apologies I have been so slow to vote. I am awaiting an somewhat urgent message. I suppose voting in the chancellorship race makes no real sense anymore now.

It never hurts to be on record voting for the winner. ^_^

[deguerra]

which is exactly why I will choose to abstain now. I was somewhat undecided anyway, and voting Arnold now would seem insincere. Ludwig is honest, and not a suck-up :D

edit: the message I was has been read. seeing as there has not been a response, I will vote on the legislation now. sorry for the holdup

sorry for the holdup

Seeing as there is still ample voting time left, you weren't holding up anything.

Does anyone have any issues with this order of things?...

No, that's exactly what I would do in your place.

Haha, I'm glad Dieter von Kassel voted out of his house, and Tancred didn't bother to vote at all. Péter is experiencing growing pains.

I uploaded a zip version of the fix after there have been requests.
Links is pretty much the same as the rar just a zip.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/KOTRfix13.zip

One thing to note though is that this is very slightly different from the rar version by a single word:
I fixed a tiny oversight where the Merchant's Guild Journeyman was still being displayed as Merchant's Guild Apprentice (this is in the export_VnVs.txt.strings.bin file). It seems that back when I created this trait (there was no Journeyman initially, only apprentice), I forgot to fix that particular part of the copy/paste process.

You however will not need to redownload this. It will not affect the game in any way except for the display of this particular trait level.

Haha! Proof that WinZip is superior to WinRAR!

[Ramses II CP]

Just use something like 7zip and it doesn't matter. :p
