Subject: Voting disk TIE

Recently I asked about number of voting disks, why odd number is recommended. The responses I have received from several of you states that it is used as Tie Breaker.

My question now is, what happens if you use an even number and you get a TIE? What happens to RAC? Eviction?

Thanks

Alex
