Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game!
Rules: -Play nicely with others here.
-Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
-Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

I'm all in favor of getting people to vote, but it seems out of line to pay people to vote (or at least claim they're going to vote) for your party. Even if the other guys did it first, an eye for an eye makes the world blind.
they are not paying people to vote, they are paying people to apologize for not voting.
