[Only 33% Meme] Secret Voting

[Snakebittenn]

Make voting secret. You get the vote window, you put in your votes, and the vote count isn't displayed. When the vote is concluded, it simply states 'The vote has ended,' and you don't know what the result was. This would result in less metagaming, (seeing 99 sec and medical ready up for voted merc, less chaplains on cult etc,) and would probably generally result in a more positive experience. We could probably trial this for about a week and see how it goes?

So you're saying that if we weren't able to know what the results were, then we'd have less metagaming? I think it might cut down on validhunting to a degree for sure, like deciding to patrol maintenance because you know it's a vampire round.

+1 I like the idea of what the round is being less knowable.

Only downside is that check round info exists.

Maybe remove that verb too?

What about those that hate certain round types, like cult, merc, or extended? I know that I hate playing on extended rounds, and always leave when extended is voted in. I would hate joining into more extended rounds and playing for the full two hours when, if I knew that it was extended, I wouldn't have played.

I hope you aren't one of those people that goes SSD on round start and instead clicks unready or jogs to Cryo,because else....dude...

Maybe if extended is voted in then have extended show up on the thing, but if it's anything else (even secret which has extended as an option) then it won't show up. Extended rounds, for me, are only good every once in a while and a secret-extended round followed by a voted extended round makes me unready and close out of the window.
