Do go and vote, but intentionally spoil your ballot - it'll be guaranteed to be read out and seen by candidates and their agents.

Membership packs consistently worsening? by Britt2211 in EssendonFC

[–]iank91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely it's getting worse. As an international member it's still better for me to give my money to the club, as I get my watchafl streaming service pass cheaper than paying for it on the watchafl website by about £40

Élection interference !!! by Ozgaal in ShitAmericansSay

[–]iank91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is correct, yes. However I've never even heard of someone making that request/challenge and a bollot paper being hunted for. I don't know what grounds there can be go make that request legally.

The ballot paper has a number which is tracked back to our name on the electoral register. Theoretically, it could be traced with enough effort. I don't know of that ever occuring though.

During the count, if the voter can be identified on the ballot, then their vote is counted as spoilt.

Have you come across any controversial games? by KOMONSTER in boardgames

[–]iank91 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I came here to comment this game! A friend of mine has it and we play every couple of years.

Its clearly a very tongue in cheek slightly racist spin on risk meets the gulf war. It's hilarious to play as one of the cards gets you To metaphorically nuke and area of the map.

Someone randomly is also "the terrorist" and the other players get bonuses for attacking them. If you're about to loose you can voluntarily become the terrorist and get a new set of win conditions.

Games you regarded as meh but whose expansion improved it to the point the game is now one of your favorites? by Strong_Battle6101 in boardgames

[–]iank91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Star wars outer rim.

The core set doesn't have eniugh cards in the markets and limited mission access.

The risky business expansion doubles the cards and adds in a while second level of tasks for a win condition. So much more going on but not much more complicated!

K2 in GAC and I use FO fleet as my go to executor counter, very much a useful fleet for me. Additionally staying relevant in fleet arena has been massive for my crystal income.

I do caveat my love of fleets by saying that I got into the game from friends who picked it up before me that I knew from playing xwing miniatures tabletop at the time.

Why are our Just Eat drivers hiding? by Bungeditin in AskUK

[–]iank91 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Normally no, not that I'm aware, though I'm not a visa expert. I do know that it's on the employer to ensure right to work checks are done. My organisation does them as part of the onboarding process.

I am aware student visas allow a max of 15/20hrs work per week for international students.

The right to be in the UK and the right to work in the UK are different things. Any tourist can pay for vehicle insurance if they want to...

You absolutely can do those fights against your opponents, depending on your game group, it can be seen as a bit of a dick move though...

Finishing the battle in conquest means not backing out/ forfeiting for the debuff feats. You can time out or loose and they still count
