Default Why not vote?

I'm just asking everyone in general:

Why do some people (about 12-14 of us) Vote on the battle field while some people don't?

I've never understood why everyone doesn't vote because it takes 5 minutes and it is fun but I figure there must be a reason.

Perhaps some people don't know what the battle field is or what it is all about?

If you don't then check this link out:
Rules and Description of Battlefield40k

Also all the current battles are linked in the signatures of members like me, BaronSpiky, and Steve.



So vote or not? And Why?

It's hard for me to vote sometimes, because I dont have a certain codex. Sometimes I just haven't read the codex. Usually I can still make an educated guess, but for instance, I have no idea what most of the ork wargear does. Anywho, I try to vote when I can, I'm just throwing that out there.

EDIT: I do agree with you though. More people should vote.

If you dont know something about a particular army then ask the/a custodian, one of the main reasons that we are custodians is the fact that we have access to the majority of Codexes. I dont know about the others but I certainly wouldn't mind if you enquired about certain aspects of an army.

I don't because, well.. To be honest I've been harangued by certain members enough to vote (off the site of course, since I'm pretty sure we agreed doing that via PM and posting was against the rules) that I just don't bother.

It's also one of those things where I just have a hard time picking a winner strictly because there is no way to account for dice rolls, etc..

more people should vote.... as for dice rolls go with the statistic average, i know it's not as good actual rolling but it gives you a good idea. I personally love argueing why this army should win or lose, or why my army has this advantage or the more common arguement why my army is gonna get pawned. but back to the topic with as many member's as we have 20-30 votes is not the unrealistic.
