Title: NEW MT.O UK meet-up Poll
Post by: Gareth on February 15, 2009, 06:59:38 PM
OK folks lets try this again. :D  Please can we keep votes to those who are attending the meet-up ONLY!  We had 12 votes last time and only 8 people are going, you do the Maths.  ;)

I've voted.  Perhaps we can post when we have done so, then we know who else we are waiting on to vote.

The sharpener is non engravable whereas a SAK is.

My vote is in  :salute:

God, is that really all we can think of?

But at least it's cheap, and legally edcable :)

... and boring. Must admit, I prefer it to a 58mm SAK though, just.  :-\

Well I'm sure we can expand the list if you can find something cheap and legally edcable :)

Looks a bit late now anyway, and the Artifact was dismissed ages ago wasn't it?

We're having this debate across two threads now, but, I would definitely prefer something multitool related, rather than an SAK which would get chucked in a drawer. I mean, really, you aren't going to EDC a 58mm knife over the stuff you've already got are you?

Yup, I've left the poll open so if someone comes up with another option we can change our vote.

Ah never mind.

One reason I like the SAK idea is that we can order them in pre-engraved in a few choices of colour.  Quick, easy and we have a few options as to exactly what style within our £15 budget.  Perhaps it would be a good idea to make buying one optional, that way no-one has to buy anything they don't want.

Either that or we can the whole thing :)

It's supposed to be something we all want, if it's going to be a bone of contention then we can always drop the idea.

Well so far I think it's three people who have given up trying to organise it? So maybe you're right.

Shall we start a poll as to whether we carry on the idea or to drop it? ;)

But I have already voted....as there is now a new option we need a new pole.

Can we also have Option 5 (A new lightsaber for my master) :duel:

Ok appologise to Gareth for messing with his thread :(

But can all those involved please PM me and let me know 2 questions...

1) Yes or no to an official MTO meet thingy?

2) The thorny issue of the £15 pound travel money yes or no?

And we'll go with the majority, and I'll obviously keep the votes quiet :-X

Not sure if it helps or not, but I have changed the poll settings so people can change their minds and vote to opt out if they wish.  Not quite sure where the final decision lies, but I'm up for a 58mm SAK as well.

*sneaks in* Micra?

I know most people will have one but they should be fairly easily obtainable (used, who cares if they're not brand new?!) easy to engrave and cheap (used) :think:

*Runs away and hides*

If the 58mm gets picked what model are you going with (or should someone make another poll ::) :rofl: )

No I really hope you guys get it settled and get something nice :tu:
