RR gated games- minimum requirement or must be greater than?
It says on my profile that my RR is 85%, but I can't seem to join or create games that have an RR requirement of 85%. Anyone know what might be causing this?

Support cut by attack
I know that if you attack a occupied territory that is trying to give support move or hold then that support is cut. However, when a single attack with no support on the attack happens and the unit giving support has support from another country/unit shouldn't the support still happen. For instance; Smyrna support move to Con - Armenia support hold Smyrna - Syria move to Smyrna no support. Shouldn't the support to Con stand?

I am one of the people who have been polled by YouGov over the past few months, and I can assure you that their methodology is pathetic. That doesn't explain all the others though.
yassem (2533 D)

Yeah, I meant MPs, anyway, that is a great news.
yassem (2533 D)
07 May 15 UTC
And the second thing - it isn't that weird that pollsters didn't get the FPTP outcomes right.
BTW, in UK, does the party with most MPs always get to create the government? Just out of curiosity.
Maniac (184 D(B))
07 May 15 UTC
No Yassem - incumbent gets first go regardless of result. If they can cobble together 323 MPs to support their queens speech they rule. If not next guy gets a chance which is likely to succeed.

I love how google has a customized search for "uk parliamentary elections" that shows the results live. Right now Labour got 100% (3 votes) according to google.

@Octavious

Turnout around 55% in the first 3 announced seats.

Depressingly low.
Hellenic Riot (1626 D(G))

Sunderland is a deprived area, and a Labour safe seat. It's not an area where you'd expect high turnout, wjessop.
wjessop (100 DX)
07 May 15 UTC
They were also saying it was an area where they didn't expect UKIP to come second.

Poverty and deprivation are just as much reasons to get out and vote as they are excuses for voter apathy.

But I do see what you're saying. And I hope the 55% turnout rate doesn't reflect nationally.

"UKIP have no PMs, but are forecast for 2 MPs" *love it*

Also, the big rumour is that Nigel Farage may not win the seat he is contesting in Thanet. May even place third.

I want more detail on the exit poll, who are the 'others' that i can't see anyone reporting. That is more seats than UKIP and the Lib Dems combined...

The "others" are mostly NI-based parties.

thus, "mostly" :)

Sounds like George might be in trouble though, judging purely on all the recounting!

Just had a thought, if the SNP adopted the SF policy of abstaining from taking their seats in Westminster, then the conservatives would have an easy majority...

So yeah, the NI parties (SDLP, DUP, UUP, SF) and of course the Welsh party.

Is the Green party going to do worse than UKIP?
Octavious (2701 D)
08 May 15 UTC
That is true. If Labour adopted the SF policy it would be even easier. Alas, the chances of either happening are nil.

UKIP has done quite well in the North East. Far better than the Greens, so far at least. We've not had any Green strongholds yet though
Hellenic Riot (1626 D(G))
08 May 15 UTC
UKIP are looking at a lot of seconds but apparently Farage is losing Thanet, Reckless is losing Rochester, and Carswell is in trouble in Clacton. 15% of the national vote and 1-2 MP's seem plausible.
Octavious (2701 D)
08 May 15 UTC
I'm amazed how Labour candidates are still insisting at every possible opportunity that they have had a brilliant campaign. Their whip should really tell them they don't have to follow the official script that was written before they knew how bad things were.

Words or uses of words you believe should be eradicated.
I admit it, I hate the misuse of language, or the creation of pseudo-words, especially when a public figure uses it in place of a perfectly functional alternative. I'll start with one that was used recently by a BBC (forsooth!) presenter:

New game idea
I just randomly thought of this: it may just be me being....me but how is this:
Anonymous (otherwise defeats the point) games where each player plays 2 countries. It could work for maps with an even number of countries. I'm not sure how points and such would work though, maybe just add them. It would add a new way to stab someone lol.

non-live game advertising
Sparked by a different thread, I'd like to make known my disagreement with having non-live games advertised in a single thread.
I don't have the hard data, but I feel like there are less coordinated games, and those that are have their own thread (see abge or ssorenn's games for example)
