Hi give,

One reason for keeping the vote secret has to do with each player's right to privacy, and to express an opinion without fear of unpleasant consequences. If a vote is being taken for ladderops for instance, would you really want the ops to know who voted NO? Mostly votes are things that don't cause much in the way of controversy, but the occasional one does arise where anonymity may keep the glue of friendships strong, whereas knowing who voted what may cause more harm than good.

Thanks for taking the time to ask and I'm grateful for your involvement in the ladder.

Everyone is welcome to express an opinion in this forum as long as it does not involve personal attacks or abuse. If you have a question USE this facility, I assure you, there will always be an answer of some kind.
