I've applied for absolutely loads to be honest, but as they're mostly the big finals I'm not expecting to get more than one or two of them. Will hurt if I do (by some miracle) get the lot, but will certainly be worth it. I have also applied for quite a bit of football too - yes, I know it's not...

That's the one. I seem to remember someone on here (back then) offering copies of the full Sky coverage. As well as it being a memorable game, I was on TV after the shootout but have never seen the coverage - and for some reason it popped into my head last night about the DVDs...

...from way back in 2004 - does anyone have one they'd be willing to lend or copy for me if I send a blank one their way? :banana:

Not really - I think it's more of the Yes camp making the case that this is fairer and hoping people agree. If people agree they'll vote yes, if they disagree they'll vote no, if they don't care they won't vote? Very true, and we don't know. Another big benefit of AV though is the elimination...

Yes, this is true but is entirely based on them picking up the second preferences. Would they still get those now? Their current unpopularity might lead to people not putting them anywhere, and an election where people order the candidates such to put the Lib Dems below every other option would...

Yes, absolutely. My point was simply that if nobody puts someone as a first preference then they don't have a chance of winning. The purpose and advantage, for me, is that this system guarantees that the winner will be preferred over the next best by a majority of voters. Under FPTP any sized...

No. This absolutely could not happen. If C has the least first choice votes then he/she is eliminated in the first round. The person with the fewest first preference votes cannot win, so feel better about your worry...

Didn't Amy say, in the brief preview of next week, that she was sorry for trying to kill her? So she probably missed? The gun's a big clue though - the Doctor's one big no-no has always been guns; if he was going to really choose his own death, would he really go for being shot? Methinks not.

So, away from Southampton for a second, and at the risk of being called a complete loser (bothered)... That was a bit bloody good, wasn't it? Is it too early to start guessing at what'll happen? Is River the astronaut? Is Amy her mum? What get out will they use to save the main man? Am I...

Would love to stand, but being in row I, I realise this is probably quite unlikely...

Nah - we'll win with a ridiculous penalty in injury time (like Bournemouth's at Withdean earlier in the season). We'll get the points, and Southampton will get to carry on claiming they're the better team really, so everyone's happy, no?

:needpics:

N1A is THE place to be. Obviously.

Indeed it does. I'm tempted to get a job lot of them and hand them around at Notts County. Though you buggers can blow them up yourselves...

It's all about playing Doncaster first. It would be emotional.

:lolol: LOVE it. I think it'll work...

I don't think this is true. You don't even know when it was asked, who was asked, or even how many were asked - if it was exactly 57 out of only 100 people then it's certainly no representation of the millions living in Australia. Anyway - more details on the poll (I'm that much of a geek that I...

There's always room for one more

No need to shout. One poll shows FPTP is preferred to AV? There have been plenty of opinion polls over here showing results both ways. With all due respect, I don't think one opinion poll in Australia really matters that much. No different to the party activists you see at UK polling stations...

There are a couple of problems with looking at AV in terms of the parliament (and government) that it will make-up overall: 1. Any reports on previous results are based on a lot of guesswork (in terms of where second preferences would have gone). Some of the assumptions may well be reasonable...
