Vote NO on proposition 6!

PEOPLE UNITE!

Dude, fucking awesome, dude.

this is very democratic

I cannot believe this thread has been started. Its very sad that someone would feel the need to influence others in this way, when we have agreed to vote on things as a community.

I'm sorry ladies, but you are simply wrong on this point. It is perfectly within the bounds of what is normally considered the democracy for people to not only vote, but to voice their opinions in for or against particular options/candidates.

During elections and votes, individuals and organizations routinely take out advertisements in all forms of public media; they flier people on the street; they voice opinions on internet blogs and forums; in the US they call your house all day long; and so on.

Some people may not have thought much about the various choices, and Mike's point here was simply to ensure that people understood the position for voting "no" on 6. To the extent that this thread has actually given people more information than they had before, it has contributed to the democratic process.

I just think its a sad day for london polo that people feel the need to do this... particularly after the options were already put down and opinions asked for before the polls went up.

Hops, it's been a sad day for london polo for a very long time.

I'm not asking anything to be changed, not calling for a re-vote, nothing but expressing my opinion and trying to get some information about possible outcomes of a vote that I feel pretty damned strongly about.

And yea, opinions were asked for, and things decided to be voted and they're still being voted on. So what's your problem?

Problem is ...as i said before, we had time to challenge what was in the polls before they went up, also problem with people calling for a re-vote when its simply not necessary.

I don't see what is so sad about it. This doesn't have anything to do with what went on last season - Mike obviously feels strongly about the principle, and, above all, wants the question out of the way definitively before the season starts, and it could be construed as being pro or anti a particular team to express an opinion on the question one way or another.

it's a sad day for polo when there's no free court or it's raining or something.

The first serious post from Bill in days.

Ha!

What, you don't play out west if it's raining? Pussies.

;)

who the fuck are you calling lady you flat brim giveaway shag pile?!
I just don't like it when people talk in their opinion and speak as if it is law. Like the fact mike states london went back on its own vote but decide to omit that people called it a loaded poll, their opinions or not. You can't say what london did or didnt do. We had a great tourney however and whomever ended up representing london, I was proud of all the teams and people that played, (horatio you still repped london in my book) why make this contentious again, just make a poll that works. People have made this thread big by ridiculing it, not advocating it, can't you see that? btw the way it was nice how lebowski wasn't allowed to play, but H was, which i only just found out about. I think that is shocking that he was or wasnt allowed. Who's business of us is it if kev wants to ask a londoner to sub. I don't remember a poll for it either. On a lighter note to the splitters: I'd have changed team if i had to play with horatio all season too :0

i actually couldn't care less about the outcome of this poll. i do feel strongly about the forfeiting games poll though.. but i'll let the voting decide that!

In the polo thread, maybe, chuck!

I want my hat back.

i gave it back to you but you were too pissed to pick it up off the square.

raking over the past for no good reason

Not really neccessary.

In the polo thread, maybe, chuck!

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!

if you mean saying what a good tournament the euros were yes. If you mean otherwise, your not looking in the right place.

who the fuck are you calling lady you flat brim giveaway shag pile?!

I give you a gift and you use that to insult me?!

hats why its not an insult.
