If my theory that bots don't know other bots identities then they shouldn't theoretically win automatically when their numbers override ours.

That's not the point. As I stated above, if it ever gets to a point where bots can influence the vote, it buys the hacker another turn. Then another if the techs don't pick up on that. By rooting out bots but not disposing of them can be a risky tactic, it can also lead to finding out who the hacker might be.
The only one that wins for the hackers is the hacker themself.

And I've just realised that bots can be dangerous. Swaying the vote away from the hacker.

How do you know there's 10 bots? Do you mean ten recruits?

Also, I can't tell if this is rational or not so posting here: is it now unlikely that IronHide is the Hacker seeing as with less thn an hour to go his Bots haven't tried to sway the vote, or even posted something like "we should kill known Bot Hypes today, we can get IronHide tomorrow". That's what I would expect to see.

Doubt it'll matter unless anyone else wants to do the same.

There will need to be an up to date vote count by 10.

Yeah, I'm going by the reasoning that each turn a new bot is recruited. The only reason 2 teletext images were posted today is because one had been missed on a previous turn.

Unless he changes his mind - Ironhide has voted to pull the lever.

The deletion always resolves before the event. The deleted player's vote will not count.

Actually it doesn’t matter.

I didn't include his post above because it read more like a threat than a vote, and he doesn't specifically say he is voting for it.
