I also like this idea and it neatly solves the problems identified by tractakid.
For those who might question that this scenario didn't win the poll, you could argue the point whilst that's true it does encompass both the vote winner (no. 2) and the joint runner up (no. 3).

Random 15 Tube is waiting for BERC adjudication before the result is posted on the website.

Surely if the idea isn't a good one then people wouldn't have voted for it???

How to start an argument about something - hold a poll.

Just responding to what Rhys said, with a suggestion which might improve it while keeping the twist's spirit true.

So far as I can see, the winner was "Two envelopes (8 stations in first, 7 in second)". So I presume that is what will happen.

The result has to be validated by the Electoral Commission BERC.

You'd imagine so wouldn't you...

Question for Hopeful Traveller, why has Antony Brown not got his occupation on your website?!

Which proposal? I suggested adding a couple of stations to the first envelope, Kevin suggested having the 7 out of 10 stations for each envelope. I really don't mind, there is always the chance that the original proposal of 7 in each (plus the starting station) might provide plenty of route opportunities, but I feel that anything that can be done to increase the route variation would help, should people agree on it. What we are proposing is a slight modification to the agreed twist, we are not protesting against the twist.

I don't see the relevance of anyone having their occupation on there. It has nothing to do with tube challenging so why mention it? (Without asking if Matthew minded as usual)

Act first, get shouted at later appears to be HT's modus operandi these days.
