These blocs would nominate and support overseer candidates based on their own goals, and slather libel-laden propaganda posters on the Vault walls to garner support prior to each election. Six main voting blocs jostled for power, including the Allied Service Workers Bloc, Divine Will Bloc, Human Dignity Bloc, Justice Bloc, United Vault Technicians Bloc, and the Utilitarian Bloc. The Coalition of Vault 11 Voting Blocs provided information and oversight of this process. Several pseudo-political powers, known as voting blocs, emerged to influence nomination and selection. The tradition of electing an overseer as the next condemned resident persisted onward. Shocked and disgusted with the situation they found themselves in, and resentful towards the overseer for neglecting to share the information before sealing the Vault doors, the residents chose the original overseer as the first sacrifice. Of the original residents, only the overseer entered the Vault knowing they would be asked to sacrifice one of the dwellers, however he was unaware of the true outcome if no one was sacrificed. According to the residents, this would satisfy the requirement and spare the remaining dwellers. This individual would serve as overseer, and at the end of their term, they were required to enter a chamber and submit to execution. Įvidence gathered from computer terminals throughout the Vault describes how Vault residents selected an annual sacrifice from among their members through democratic elections. However, by the time the Vault 11 inhabitants chose to stop sending sacrifices only five of them remained.

The message also informed them that as a reward the Vault door was now unlocked, allowing free passage to and from the Vault, but urged the dwellers to consult with their overseer before doing so. The message commended the dwellers for not selecting one of their own as a sacrifice, telling the dwellers their 'commitment to human life is a shining example to us all' and revealing that no one would be killed. In actuality, if the residents refused, a message from Vault-Tec would be played. Vault 11's experiment was that the inhabitants were told to sacrifice one of their fellow Vault dwellers each year or else the Vault computer would kill everyone.

As with the majority of other Vault-Tec Vaults, Vault 11 served as a social experiment.
