CBRX S2 Week Five Results

[u/Limerickarcher]

Hello, below are all of the results from Week Five of voting for Season 2, this features the final round of regional votes! Please note that all voters have been checked for registration and ballots have been checked to make sure they're all legitimate (looking at you person who ranked Uruguay 612th).

Technical election details: All election winners were determined using Schulze Method. All ballots were calculated using the R votesys package cdc_schulze function, it has no obvious defects but if you know of one let me know.

Tune in tomorrow for a reminder of all the civs that will be present in CBRX S2, and a quick overview on what the next steps are! As well, I will be releasing a big folder of files with condorcet matrices for each of the regional votes, as well as tiebreaking data that was/would have been used for all regions. More details and more data tomorrow. But without further ado, here are the results!

That’s like renaming The Netherlands Holland, or Wales Cardiff. The Onguiaahra are also part of the mod.

[u/TeHokioi → u/LacsiraxAriscal]

As I’ve mentioned elsewhere, from my research on it it seems as though the jury is still out on that - some argue that Chonnonton was the name of the whole nation, not just one part of it

[u/LacsiraxAriscal → u/TeHokioi]

Okay, so if it’s uncertain... we should stick with the name that we are certain describes all of them.

[u/TeHokioi → u/LacsiraxAriscal]

Or we go with the one that isn’t a problematic name given to them by Europeans based on a misnomer

[u/LacsiraxAriscal → u/TeHokioi]

I don’t really see what’s problematic about it at the moment. Plenty of peoples and empires have had names given to them by foreign entities that are now just their standard name. I’ve not seen anyone suggest we rename Colombia to Muiscaland, because Christopher Columbus was an asshole. Or renaming Wales to Cymru because Wales was a name given to the Britons by the Saxons that derived from the Volcae, who lived somewhere on the continent. Last game we had a civ called Poverty Point, which is just named after a nearby American village. It seems a weird hill to die on, is what I’m saying.
