Now do you accept that I am the voice of the average TC who only expresses his views and concerns from that perspective.

We accept that you have your own voice expressing your own views and concerns. Nothing more, nothing less.

If we look at the poll results we can see that you got 5 votes. I'm not sure whether the poll allowed you to vote for yourself, so it's possible you 'only' got 4 votes. But I'm going to be generous and say you got 5 votes.

So... if we extend our generosity we can accept that you are the voice of an additional 5 people, TC or not. You are not the voice of the average TC. You speak for yourself and possibly 5 others. That we can accept. :)

I did not vote for myself, and 5 could be 50% of TCs that contribute making it an average viewpoint.

Could be... possible, but quite unlikely imho.

Zan got 4 votes, Deniz 16 and Kikapu 1. Those 'candidates' are TC's. If we assume that at least a majority of votes in favour of TC candidates were cast by TC's your 5 votes is hardly 50% of the TC's that contribute.

Bananiot got 2 votes. One or both of these votes could be from TC's. He's a GC, but he's constantly being accused of favourising the TC's.

Speculations, speculations... we can assume things as much as we want. Maybe your views are the same as 50% of the TC's, maybe not. All we know for sure is that your views and opinions are yours and it's fair to assume that an additional 5 people are sharing some or all of your views. :)

AI.Its best not to analyse too much. There is such a thing as 'tactical voting'. Beware. :wink:

I know I know... but I choose to be naive and assume the best in people. I'd like to think that people voted for someone they actually had faith in. That's at least what I did. :)
