Australian Nationals 2012

Which weekend do you prefer for AN2012?

  • Total voters
    46
Currently the votes are even, and if I recall correctly only one option can be voted for, which is not an accurate reflection of availability, but rather preference. I am happy for it to be in September as well, so that makes September more at this stage.

Furthermore, why shouldn't he take priority as among our best helpers? Particularly with scrambling.

Also, ausnats has in the past been late August.

Lastly, we will probably have a comp in July and September, it is just a matter of which is ausnats.

The people who voted for July 7-8 are: you, Florian, Peteorzz, thackernerd, Tim Major
thackernerd isn't going to come to the comp, that makes 4 votes.

The people who voted for Sep 1-2 are: cubecraze1, fazdad, fazrulz, HelpCube, Moops, Paragal
HelpCube and Paragal aren't going to come to the comp, fazdad isn't a competitor and his vote is a necessary reflection of Feliks', so that makes 2 votes.

6 legit votes isn't enough to draw any conclusion on which date is better.

I am happy for it to be in September as well, so that makes September more at this stage.

You can't make this argument; you don't know if the other people who have voted are also available for the other dates too. And 2+1 < 4 anyway.

This is your only good reason so far, but it's not a good enough reason to drastically change the date of a competition. It's obvious that your real reason is because you're friends with Feliks and want to see him get (a) WR(s).

Also, ausnats has in the past been late August.

Nice appeal to tradition.
 
I'm going overseas next year in either July or September. There is no definite date set yet so I will vote when I know.
Also, @Aron You should have done English in yr12. ^^
 
@aron We wouldn't be drastically changing the date? Don't say stupid things if you're trying to make my arguments out to be bad (yes they were bad but you took them way too seriously).

@faz Tim actually prefers September because June/July is a stressful time at work for him.

The only reason Tim sugested July is because uni and high school holidays are at the same time then, but because there aren't many competitors at uni, doing it during high school 3rd holiday is fine.

2 months isn't 'drastic'?
 
Hang on, what? Where is two months coming from? ausnats has never been in June, July, November, or December. It has been in early September and late August.
 
July to September

It's not important what dates the competition were in previous years.
 
It would only be "changing" if it was currently in July (using the month you specified). No date has yet been determined, therefore nothing is "changing". That is why I was confused (or just trolling you, but same diff).

Basically, the date for ausnats has not been decided but Tim and Faz favour September and that is going to have a lot of swing in determining when it is held.

It would be "changing" if the majority preference was July but you picked September because of Faz.

If Tim's decision is "September because I'm too busy in July and Faz won't be there", then making a poll for the thread was pointless.
 
We've never had Ausnats in July before. I figured that I'd submit a poll to see if people are available during this holiday period.

July is slightly busier for me than September. However, we should consider the availability of other organisers and helpers too.

It's looking like it'll be September again but I'm not sure how well it fits in with uni students...

Tim.
 
This is the first I've heard of this...

Preferable 1st - 2nd September

Since I believe June/July Joshua and I are *probably* going on a holiday

1-2 September is on the week of mid semester break (second weekend before it ends)

Oh jolly good. It's been a fair while since you bothered to show your face. How's the times coming along?

Long story short, I stopped for about 1 and a half years because of stupid stuff that I did on these forums, but now I'm back, and hoping that I won't be so stupid this time. (I thought it was your fault back then, but it definitely isn't. Sorry.)

As a result, I slowed down a little, but I'm quickly getting back to normal.

Anyway. Back to the point.
