A penultimate bump before Friday, assuming I remember to bump it again.

This road appears to be full of pot holes and bumps. Maybe it's a track way and not a road??? :roll: :lol:

Was it not Socrates that said the path to enlightenment was strewn with rubble and dogdoo?

No, it was Groucho Marx.

Anybody know of a hack to manipulate poll results? Asking for a friend.

Last bump.

Looks like a close one, the berks currently have it.

Oh bloody hell, 13 all, it's never simple is it. I'm sure you lot do it on purpose.

If it's still a draw at midday UTC let's give it another week.

If it's still a draw then....dunno.

In case of final draw we might ask for a qualified vote, a casting vote.

Does anyone know Clive Sinclair's email?

Ahh! The wonderful world of community democracy :lol:
Admins make a decision and divide the community, and those who are upset shout out at the Admins because they are wrong.
So, you give the community the choice, and instead it equally divides itself... :lol:

Welcome to the world of being wrong!

I don't recognise this description of events. Looks more like you're itching to draw parallels that aren't there to me.

Not trying to draw parallels to anything. My comments just reflect my own experiences of how, sometimes, events don't go the way that is expected.

And for the record, I'm just watching, as I already voted weeks ago.

Anyway, since you posted that it's currently a draw, there has been another vote :D

Still level pegging.

I guess if it's still a draw on Friday 12 UTC we just keep the current ranks but leave the poll open and forget about it for a while, maybe in weeks or months something will pull ahead.

Still level pegging? Is there a minimum percentage for it not to be level pegging?

Re: Forum ranks poll

No it was 14 all when I posted. 1 vote would be enough.

Indeed, I've got a nasty feeling when I check midday Friday it will be level pegging again!

Create a new, less polarizing poll. For example:

1. Machine types
2. Definitely machine types

Another draw! If I didn't know better I'd swear someone's taking the P?s?.

I guess we keep the current ranks for the moment and forget about this for a bit, the poll can stay open.

I like this idea, but to keep it fair we should have an alternative vote :mrgreen:
