Brexit polls have just closed.
-
19:1 in favor of staying. How did that even get up for a vote if support for exit was nonexistent?
edit: oh wait that was just an exit poll from google. perhaps the real vote is closer. -
I just saw with 5% reporting that it was 51:49 for exiting hopefully that gets better tomorrow morning.
-
yeah, it's leaning towards an exit, but early polls show staying... and the market moved that way. It's looking like a market crisis now.
-
They've called for the Brexit now. And the Pound is below 1985 levels at $1.33. This is epic.
-
Wow...didn't really expect Brexit to happen.
-
Now to see if I can buy some BRP tomorrow morning at the bank.
-
@brianlittlejohn Nope... and it shouldn't happen in case of such a small majority.

And should not happen when split regionally as it is, either. This is terrible misuse of the political system. A "within margin of error" majority can, at an time, cause irreparable damage to the country? That's insane. Even the US is not that bad. And the US has some terrible political systems.

Maybe he got shot once more right through a wall and just hates the game.
One of the reasons why I stopped playing it in 2001 or so, no fun at all to get kicked / banned all night long - even at LAN party's.

Most of the skins you would either buy from the official store, or from farmers.
People who play to unlock the skin achievements as if it were a gaming marathon. Which you immediately turn around and sell it for more.

I think you are talking about a game, and I'm talking about real hard currency that we use in the real world.
