Alright, calling the vote!
Now, I had been hoping I would be able to avoid a situation like this for a while, but fate, it seems, is not so kind. We have a tie.

[X] Plan The Casting Of Runes Is A Divination Trdition: Six Votes

[X] Plan King Nerd: Six Votes (@dbRevned, I'm assuming the second half of your post was your actual plan.)

So, to resolve this, I did a coin flip.

It seems Trelawney got pink-slipped this year, because you are the new Divination professor! Congrats! And to everyone who wanted to start a magic item shop, don't worry, crafting/enchanting/being a capitalist dog is still very much an option, you'll just be doing it in your free time for the most part.

Should have Turn 1 written up in a few hours, so stay tuned.

@Gabrian
Plan King Nerd has 7 votes
and Plan The Casting Of Runes Is A Divination Tradition. has 6
so plan king nerd should have won.
and ya the second half of my post was my own plan however I was going for the king nerd vote since I didn't think my plan would gain traction

... alright, here's how we're going to do this.

First, this goes for everyone, next time pick a vote and stick to it. If you change your vote later, that's fine, but it invalidates the first vote. No double votes, doing that negates both votes.

Second, I will allow this to be the first and only exception. For the next 4 hours I will have a vote of either yay or nay.

[] Yay: there was no tie, plan king nerd won.

[] Nay: the coin is king, you are now a professor
 
[X] Nay: the coin is king, you are now a professor

Edit: on the up side, I found how to count from post position. I put in 54 in the 'start counting from post' field and it worked. Should be useful for my own Quests, too.

ngl, getting the divination position via coin flip feels super appropriate
 
Please God, don't let there be another tie.

Also, @cedeelbe, how did you get your picture to work? I had to finagle it with a link to Pinterest, and it just looks a bit off.

Edit: I'm turning in for the night, and I've got something big going on tomorrow, so don't expect turn 1 till tomorrow night

Yay: there was no tie, plan king nerd won. -4 people have voted

Nay is currently winning
you can tell by doing the tally and poting in your post number which was 54
 
[X] Nay: the coin is king, you are now a professor

TBH, while I would have liked the genius perk, divination sounds cool.
 
[X] Yay: there was no tie, plan king nerd won.

Good Divination is hard to write. At least, Good Prophecy is hard to write.
