There is nothing to stop you from casting 300! votes, if you can find 300!
New Transferable Votes to cast them with.

Under Transferable Voting, at the start of the voting period, the Admin
distributes to each player one Transferable Vote for each ballot item. The
players can trade or do whatever they like with these votes, and then cast
them on the particular items they are for.  This records their vote for
the round.  Only one vote can be cast per token, but if you can get hold
of two tokens for one proposal then there is nothing that stops you from
casting two votes on that proposal.

poulenc.

PS. I think it might still have a couple of security holes, so I will
revise it yet again.  Also to finish bringing it in line with the new
object system.
