Fjool Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 How? Lerwick, as usual, isn't even on the map! :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Note to vote for Shetland you have to vote "Wildcard" by choosing an area; Edinburgh for instance, and then choosing "Vote Now". You are presented with a screen to vote for chosen city - press "Wildcard" instead and choose "Shetland". Then vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjool Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Aye - yes, I'd just found that option after a bit of mucking around. In the 'reason' field, I put: "It's Britain's most northerly town!". Seems like a jolly good reason for including it to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I just did it too with "It's Britain's most northerly town!" Everyone should get stuck in! Go on ... you know you want to! Note: anyone having an issue with the @ symbol when entering your email - it's the flash thingy pulling an American keyboard layout The @ will be above the 2 where the " should be!! Hold shift-2 to get the @. HTH. [edit]I also note we can vote once per day too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I would prefer it if we weren't stuck as "Old Kent Road" though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjool Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Actually, OKR is technically one of the more 'valuable' properties when considering cost/benefit and location. A bit like Shetland then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twerto Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 managed to vote twice so far using my different email addresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppet Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Are we voting for Lerwick or for Shetland? Dont want to split the vote and lose out, do we?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjool Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I'd say 'Lerwick' is the most likely to be added to the board since they appear to be after towns, rather than regions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trout Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I'd say 'Lerwick' is the most likely to be added to the board since they appear to be after towns, rather than regions. Yep, "Lerwick" as Location and Shetland as "County". Here I'll add this all to the top post as a guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fjool Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 It's less a 'vote', and more a 'nomination' (if that makes you feel any better about it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
