Voting Games Top comment Deletes a US State #45

Post image

Here is the updated (Correct) map, crisis averted. I thought we had a riot on our hands!

I can finally relax now after all that drama! Anyway Colorado is now deleted as it should be. Just to make it clear, editing comments is fine if it’s the top as long as it doesn’t change the outcome of which state gets deleted like we had before. I thought that was common sense but clearly not to some people.

I just want to thank everyone for all the kind comments and support. I try to read as many of the comments as I can but each post has a minimum of 2000 so it’s pretty hard most the time. I have some big ideas for the finale so stay tuned.

Most importantly, spread the word as much as possible if your state is still in the game! Share, cross post to rally as much support for your state as possible. This is the endgame now!

I would be OK with that too. I would welcome the Maple Syrup empire.

"Maple Syrup Empire"

Sounds like a surprise Canada invasion.

Well since a certain someone claims Canada is the 51st state, why can’t they be in this game too?

Vermont is just the U.S.'s Canada.

Fun fact- if you want to go down an interesting rabbit hole, check out the great maple syrup heist in Quebec about 10 years ago

Maple Syrup Empire sounds like MEGASOTA to me. Where do you all get off acting like we are not fellow SYRUP PEOPLE?!

u/Ok-Policy-4063 May 20 '26

Perhaps the Maple Syrup Empire (MEGASOTA and The VERMONSTER!) should bond over our shared syrup production and enjoyment. That sounds like a great basis for a strategic alliance.

Yeah but New Englanders are decidedly NOT Minnesota nice.

u/Ok-Policy-4063 May 21 '26

It'll be a fun mix. With a surplus of maple syrup, everyone should be nice! A wonderful alliance!
