Well. Analyzes can be wrong as well, and some people may use it against me one day :p

 

You can select polling stations for yourself? :mumble:

 

In Denmark it's just the closest (if you don't vote in advance).

It was my old public school until I moved about 1½ years ago.

You can select your polling station but just partially. I mean, you can choose any station you want in the place you live. As for my small town, there are I believe almost 10 places I could choose from.

 

It's possible to vote in another place than where you live, but you have to get some sort of document for that I guess. Not a lot of work as far as I know though :p

I dont get what those hackers are up to. Why do they post in turkish? That way no non-turkish person will understand their "message" ... so they could as well hack some turkish tv station and spread their message there. The problem with that is that there are basically no oppositional newspapers/tv stations left in Turkey ...

 

I still dont understand all the hate for Wilders, in the end all politicians are basically the same, but at least Wilders got a cool haircut, so i would definitely give him my vote if i'd be allowed.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

First exit polls:

Meaning significantly less seats for Wilders than he had in polls in recent months, that's a good start to the evening :p

Would be absolutely lovely with as many seats for D66 as PVV!

 

When do you usually have an ide about the actual result?

I'm considering a semi-late night, but I have class at 8...

There's another exit poll coming at 21.30, which includes the last half hour of voting as well (voting closed at 21.00). After that, the next stop is 23.30 when the biggest Dutch news agency comes up with their preliminary results.

Maybe not but it certainly sounds different when you say "the populist party finished second, only after the winner" than "the populist party finished fourth" :)

    • Let's not act as if these things never happen before. Serbia's cross-country skiing drama a week before the Olympic qualifying for Beijing ended: FIS | Cross-Country Results - Zlatibor (SRB) 2021/2022   Drndic with a DNF, despite being - on paper at least - the best athlete. She didn't just 'not finish', she stepped out barely 50 meters before the finish, because if finishing, the points for her competitor would have been better due to the way points are calculated. Ended up with lots and lots of yelling and screaming and fighting and cursing, DNS the next day and in the end Serbia sent none of them.   This is not a shit move by Canada, this is a fault of the system at most.
    • Yes agreed, resetting it would help make it more dramatic as no one would be running away with it. We could also set it that there is a small reward for ranking higher after each round… maybe they start the next round with a “head start” so they bring a few points into the next round? But starting from scratch each round might be cleaner  
    • I like the concept a lot. My only worry would be that the nations doing the best individually would also end up at the top here as teams are only made up of pairs. Whereas in a bigger team it gives the nations not doing so well individually to have another chance if they are lucky enough to be placed in a good team. Any way we can balance it?
    • I thought about accumulating, but for higher drama it may be reset like in cycling track elimination races 
    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
