Randomization in option lists adds a layer of frustration to the game which has not yet been explored by SE, and I pray they never hear of because they might just do it. "Abstain" is the correct solution to this mess. Not only does it make it harder for you to accidentally place your vote wrong, but it also makes it so every person who actually cares what they vote for has a stronger vote.

(less junk votes chosen completely at random means a group of people making a conscious decision can more easily tip the scales).
Fair point.

About that last bit, I guess I would have to agree, though I'd also be slightly concerned about resting the decision on a small number of people (especially years down the road when fewer ppl are participating in the colonization).
