Expropriate Rulings
- Sep 20, 2024 Each player must vote for one of the available options. They can't abstain.

- Sep 20, 2024 Votes are cast in turn order, and each player will know the votes of players who voted beforehand.
- Aug 23, 2016 Because the votes are made in turn order, each player will know the votes of players who voted beforehand.
- Aug 23, 2016 If a creature with an enters-the-battlefield council's dilemma ability leaves the battlefield before that ability resolves, players can still vote for any option that would put +1/+1 counters on that creature, even though—or perhaps especially because—those votes won't generate an effect.
