Oh, I know that tactical voting is possible under AV. It's annoying about the monotonicity criterion, and I'd gladly vote for Condorcet if that was the referendum we were having. (But I still feel AV beats FPTP overall.)
I was curious though if there was a tactical difference between IRV/AV, and non-instant runoff voting - i.e., knowing the results of the earlier rounds might mean you vote differently in the later rounds, to what your initial IRV ranking would have been.
