Political editor, WalesThis is about Plaid Cymru flexing its muscles and sending out a signal, following the accusations that Labour had had it easy in the previous five years in the assembly.
Labour say it is a stunt, with Plaid Cymru doing deals with the Conservatives and UKIP.
Plaid's riposte is that Labour have been arrogant in the run up to Wednesday's events, with Carwyn Jones offering nothing clear on his plans for government.
Labour AMs have been walking around with faces like thunder and although one Plaid Cymru AM has said it was not about giving them "a bloody nose", it has created bad blood.
What next?
Well, they'll return next week for another vote knowing that AMs have 28 days to decide on a first minister - that's 28 days from the day of the election, which would take us to 2 June.
If there is no agreement the secretary of state for Wales can call a fresh election.

End of twitter post'Labour had no divine right' to first minister rolepublished at 16:25 British Summer Time 11 May 2016
Statement by the Welsh Conservative Leader
The Conservatives have 11 AMs, losing three AMs in Cardiff Bay on 5 May.
Welsh Conservative leader Andrew RT Davies says:
Quote MessageLast week, less than 16% of voters backed the status quo and another five years of Labour. Having seen their share of the vote drop by 8%, many voters across Wales moved away from Labour last week and, crucially, the Party did not win a majority at the 2016 election. As such, Labour had no divine right to assume the First Ministership today. It is for new Assembly Members to explore, and discuss, the best way forward for the Welsh nation, which has for too long fallen behind the rest of the UK. Certainly, I sense an appetite for a new kind of collaborative Welsh politics, and would welcome further discussions to build on those which led to today's vote. Our ambitious manifesto was packed full of ideas we believe could make a difference to people across the country. As we analyse the impact of the new election results on Wales, Welsh Conservatives remain steadfastly committed to delivering for communities across the country.”

End of twitter postStatement by Plaid Cymru group in the Assemblypublished at 15:34 British Summer Time 11 May 2016
On May 5th, Wales chose not to elect one single party to govern Wales with a majority. As is the convention, the biggest party were given an opportunity to reach an agreement on forming a government which could lead Wales with the support of the majority of members in the National Assembly.
They took the decision not to pursue that option, and were not prepared to give the process of negotiation any further time.
As a result, the Plaid Cymru group followed normal Parliamentary protocol and nominated Leanne Wood for First Minister. Carwyn Jones was informed of this decision yesterday.
Since that time, and as far as Plaid Cymru is aware, there have been no formal discussions, agreements or deals pursued between any party.
This afternoon, the Assembly failed to reach agreement on who should become First Minister and form the next government. It is now for the parties to discuss this matter further in order to seek the best outcome for Wales.
