Still go out and vote for Herschel even though the ballots will be messed with. If you don't go out and vote they don't have to cheat. When you go out and vote, they have to cheat, and that is the only way you catch someone cheating. A trap, even though they know it's there, they will still try and hope you give up.
Also something worth mentioning, don't be fanatical about post digits, shills can make scripts to acquire digits. Or it's some independent LARPing dickhead inorganically trying to force a message by pre-writing a message and then trying to time it right by watching current post counter. But also who is to say you can't do that. Just pay attention is what I'm trying to say I guess.
I still pay attention to post digits but not religiously. I scan if they align with many other things with the post like timestamp, ID, filenames, power-level, Intuition.
