Players' Association Representative: Election Run-Off

[age_master]

What happens if there's a tie?

Liam would vote.

if noone gets 50% after this one it will become a 2 horse race.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Actually, I think this is the final vote regardless of the 50% rule. There's hardly any time for another vote with the squad for Australia due in a handful of days.

There's gotta be another vote for me. Undermines the system.

Agree 100% with Pickup.

Besides, I'd have thought that confirming the make-up of the selection panel was more pressing. That kind of died.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Well then the only options are to pick the team:

a. without the voice of the PA;
b. with Andrew Garven in his last voice as PA;
c. in roughly 24 hours.

Either that or we have a 24-hour face-off between the top two vote-getters.

 

[Neil Pickup]

All are better than going with someone with less than 50% off the vote.

 

[Pratters]

As it is not best suited to delay, the middle path would be to have Andrew give his last voice this time and have the voting for the PA rep side by side IMO.

That way, we don't do away with the system but do not lose time for the Australian tour as well. I mean, apart from the flight cancellations and what not, it would mean one less day of acclimatisations.

 

[Loony BoB]

Definitely go with option b, yeah.

 

[ash chaulk]

towns

 

[cricketboy29]

I say we go with the 24 hour faceoff thingie beween fuller and towns.Or we could wait, since towns has around 43% of the vote to get to 50.

It died because no player wanted to have too much input after the initial debate.

As it stands, the 5-member proposal offered by the CWBCC has only seen opposition from one player, maybe two (http://forum.cricketweb.net/showpost.php?p=769300&postcount=37), and is the only proposal to have more than one person behind it (http://forum.cricketweb.net/showpost.php?p=778059&postcount=57, http://forum.cricketweb.net/showpost.php?p=769445&postcount=38, http://forum.cricketweb.net/showpost.php?p=769857&postcount=44, http://forum.cricketweb.net/showpost.php?p=767574&postcount=10), so that seems to be what most people want.

As the players want a 50 % majority, and it's their election, that will of course be adhered to.

 

[Buddhmaster]

Just let Dorth pick the team, it'll work out better.

 

[Jamee999]

The poll has closed.

Looks like it'll be Towns vs Fuller then?

 

[steds]

Towns wins.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Towns wins.

Oh yeah?

 

[Loony BoB]

What's kind of scarey is just how many of those "Daniel Towns" ones are actually me.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Towns wins.

We'll see.

(this is a notice that the third round has started. Apparently that didn't get through to everyone.)
