And I'm still only level 4 and we haven't advanced the main plot much beyond the first day. I'm still going to be doing this next year at this time, aren't I? I'm reading through this from the beginning and haven't finished yet, but wanted to quote this in 2014.

If we had proportional representation people wouldn't feel compelled to vote strategically for one of the two best performers!

I think they think you're waiting for a specific number of votes - 60 or 70 or something - for a single option before you call the voting and decide the winner. I don't know where they got that idea, though. And then run-off would be a second vote against the two highest. (Although I admit the voting totals between B and E ended up being closer than I expected.)

Do it French style, since there are only two options doing well... end the vote, and then have everyone re-vote for either B or E. Not perfect, but better.

Only the twenty people who voted for something other than B or E would be doing anything, it's likely to be the same proportion, and it would prolong this process even further. I'm amazed Vorgen's left the voting up this long, really.

 13 Nightal, 1370 I look at the corpses of my fallen minions around me as the sweet tweets of birds titillate my ear.  The birds are still around from one of my wild surges. Bird magic really is the hardest. Also, I realize that the corpses of the bunnies make a skull.  Is that some sort of sign? Is my deadbeat father trying to say something? Well, whatever. I go to the place where my now-dead brother fell. He left his sword.   I give it a test, to see what it feels like in my hand.  I will carry this. It is mine by right. In another pile of loot nearby is Nemmerle's Revenge, a Ring of Protection +3, a Robe of the Abyss, a crown that I can't identify (!!), and Semaj's Cloak. So this must have been Semaj.   For the first time in a very long time I take out some Glasses of Identification and give them a look-through. The crown turns out to be the Crown of the SHar'DuKha.  I pack it all away, save for the cloak. I put that on. There will be time enough later to sort through all of this. There is other loot scattered around the area, but its nothing special. I start to begin to feel that perhaps I really have defeated my brother. Sarevok is really dead. I leave the temple without looking back.  I half expect some dark monstrosity to jump out and accost me. But the ruins of this forgotten city remain silent.  When I get out of there, Winski is still around.   Just leave me here. I... I don't have any more drive left. Let the drat Fist come for me. I don't care anymore.I have a bit of a scare trying to find my way back out of the maze.  But the doomguard and skeleton can't even hit me. And after I cast Haste, they can't keep up with me either. Is there anything that can harm me in all of the Sword Coast now? I've just defeated the greatest threat that the entire region has faced. Alone. Why should I be afraid of anything else? When I make it through the maze, Voleta is surprised to see me.   I'll be fine for now. The others will fix me up good soon enough, so just get out of here. You've causd enough trouble one way or another.I go upstairs, and through the Thieves' Guild.  And then make my way into the predawn quiet of a sleeping Baldur's Gate.  Everyone in this city is asleep in their beds. They don't even know what I saved them from. They don't even know that their hero walks in their midst.  I don't know whether to be happy or sad at that. On the one hand, my notoriety has been a constant thorn in my side, what with bounty hunters on my trail and all. But on the other hand, I just saved the freakin' world! I'm still thinking it over when I get to the center of the Elfsong Tavern.  Time to bring the Golden Company home!  Ok guys. I've got good news, and better news.  Good news is - false alarm, don't need you to fight, Sarevok's dead. Better news is that its vacation time! The Golden Company as a whole is issued one month's paid leave! I'll drop anybody off who wants to be dropped off. Jovial Juggler, Friendly Arm, whatever you want! There's cheers all around, and also incredulous stares. But hey, everybody lives, so no harm done!  I clear everybody out.     Then, I get back together with the Final Five.   You bet! We'll nick ourselves a whole purse o' fun before the night is through!That we will, Imoen dear, that we will.   Straight to the point, I respect that. Let's go.  A wise choice. Lead on.  Oh! It is so nice to have one's strengths appreciated. (blush)  Then I shall do my best for you, though I am sure we both know that the worst is inevitable.I teleport us all out of the pocket plane. I'm going to Belt to report the death of Sarevok, and they are going to be my honor guard. After we get a good night's rest, of course.   Late that morning... Syvishtar, have you had any more nightmares recently? Not that I remember, no. It might be the blood of Tel'Qussir in your veins that protects you. In any case, I hope you will not experience these horrors again.Me too Xan, me too. Now that Sarevok is dead, I'm sure life will be able to get back to normal. We go out into the bright, warm light of day under a sky in which nobody wants to kill us. No one at all. It is amazing!  We make our way back to the Duchal Palace, sure in our step.  Once there, Belt rushes up to us.   To think we praised him only hours ago... *ahem* The people have heard about Sarevok. They grew curious. The nobles in particular are asking questions. Dangerous ones. Like how you managed to kill a child of Bhaal. The Shadow Thieves leaked it, about the temple beneath their complex. I think it may have been an attempt to root you out of the town. They probably feel threatened by your presence here. As if the nobles were not enough of a problem, I have a larger issue that you may be able to help with. What is it? Amn still plans to go to war with us. I have tried to send messages to the council in Athkatla but they don't seem to respond. I don't know if the problem is with my couriers or the council. And you want me to do what? I am telling you this because I need someone who can get this critical job done. I want you to meet my contact and deliver this letter to him. If my couriers can't get there because of bandits or what have you, at least I know you will be able to defeat them and continue with this mission. Athkatla? In Amn? That wll take some time to get there. Is there any way to speed up my trip? Yes, that leads me to my next topic. I have had my mages write up a spell for me to teleport you there. Unfortunately, I have never been to Athkatla, and teleports only work if you know the destination. I have been on several hunting trips just north of Athkatla. I know one area very well and can teleport you to that spot. I have told my contact and he should have people waiting there for you. They can escort you into the city. I am confused. If you can teleport somone to meet with this contact, why don't you just send a courier? Why me? Two reasons actually. One, as I said before, the nobles here are fearful of you. Getting you out of town for a few days will give me time to calm their fears. The second reason is because my contact has heard of you. It seems you are the heroes of the Sword Coast. My contact thinks that the council would be much more willing to take my requests seriously if heroes like yourselves were supporting our cause. I have even notified some of your friends so they can meet you there. You will need to make it back from Amn on foot, so make sure you have ample supplies for the long trip.Wait, some friends of mine? Who has he been talking to?  Well, I was looking forward to a vacation. Taking one in a larger city than Baldur's Gate sounds pretty fun. Maybe I can even catch a ship there to a far-away place, like Maztica! Yes, I am ready. Good luck, and safe journeys.Then he casts the spell, and I know blackness and disorientation.  Are... are teleport spells usually supposed to last this long? What's... what's going on? Why do I feel... so.... woozy...? ?? ....    Gameplay note: And here we are, at the end of Baldur's Gate. We have just finished the less-popular, less-modded prequel to what is arguably the greatest RPG of all time. A big thanks to all of you who have made it this far. This is the end of...

I can't wait to see the final Roll of the Dead tally for this game. And by "this game" I mean Baldur's Gate I. I was also wondering how they were going to tie in the beginning of BGII into this without having it just suddenly happen.
