We manage to have voting for a person and parties all done with simple checkboxes on a single ballot paper
It's really not a complicated system

Surprisingly many small companies, especially 1 person ones. Though I havn't seen the news story in question.

Is there a separate paper for smaller parties? Or does it list all parties that report an interest in the election?

That's from 2001 but yes there's one paper for every party and person you can vote for. Not every small party or person makes it to the list but that means that they were unable to gather enough of a voterbase to be relevant, in the 2015 election that meant that your party needed 20000 people supporting you to make it to the ballot paper.

It's simple, it's truly private, it's just a checkbox and it works. As i said on the last page, the swedish system seems really dumb.

People occasionally talk about Dota in here. I forget why we have a specific rule to not talk about Dota here

long story short though our General Discussion thread was closed about 4 years ago and this one was opened in its place

Probably yes. Although MotoGP had some nasty crashes in the past and the riders came out ok most of the time. However, this dude should get banned from any racing series anyways.
The dude did something equally stupid in Moto3 and his team promptly kicked him.

Sad days but I still see some old people playing, like Firebolt, the infamous invoker >D
Anyway, I've came back to Doto after like 5 year break? Played some League, HOTS and BW:R meanwhile but damn, I've missed this game. Watched whole TI8 and started playing again, especially rankeds. Currently Legend IV so not that bad if I've played like 20 games so far. I thought more people from TL hang out on specific channel but I rarely see anyone - maybe that's because my /f list is kind of empty :D

The old thread got destroyed because people were discussing big news in it instead of in the actual threads, meaning that discussion was being lost.

Don't really know if LD has party stacks or similar. I play with RL friends or solo ranked when I play. Currently on a brake since training for Wagacamp and then 2 weeks of full time TI watching was a bit too much. Think I'll get back into it in 2-3 weeks when the pro scene starts getting interesting again.

Probably means I won't get a rank this season while I did last one, will take weeks to get back into shape after the break. I stopped in middle of Divine 5 when I realised that they didn't raise tier 8 from divine 5 to only immortal. That was a hit to my morale. :D

The change to ranks is probably one of the more motivating things for me since the only time I was close to good enough to have a shot at top 200 on a region was 3+ years ago now. Getting top 5k is still achievable without a too massive time sink since I have a decent history with the game to fall back on.
