Support NeoGAF

[norinrad]

Oh oh

 

[Addnan]

I am a bit surprised remainers are sweating it, all indications are this isnt going to be that close.

After the polling of last years election we can't take anything for granted.

 

[Rich!]

All things considered, I think leave will win.

Not sure why.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

I remember the kick in the pants last years ten pm exit poll was for the GE.

 

[Drencrom]

BritGAF please remain

Are we guessing the results here. I think it'll be 61% Remain

 

[Hazzuh]

Academic researchers have concluded that 61.6% of young voters intended to vote to remain in the EU.

That’s a survey – the details have just come – by Oxford and University of Manchester researchers who worked with the data firm RIWI to run the survey from the beginning of March up to June. Partial responses came from 7,444 people under the age of 40.

From the Guardian. Disappointingly low.

 

[Geminosity]

Seriously. Leave would cost me dearly and I'm terrified of that.

Vaguely curious but why do you think it would cost you? I ask because I doubt any trade deals the UK would strike would differ much from the current ones. The doom and gloom of supposedly not joining the Euro currency seems to have been forgotten in the wake of the UK economy being a-ok.

 

[Captain Smirk]

Voted leave, let's do this!

 

[milanbaros]

I remember the kick in the pants last years ten pm exit poll was for the GE.

Oh god that was something. Who was it who said they would eat their hat if it was that bad and then it turned out even worse. That was crazy.

 

[Moobabe]

Don't know if I'll be able to sleep knowing the results are coming in...

Probably have to stay up to watch on my phone

 

[Dougald]

All things considered, I think leave will win.

Not sure why.

British pessimism. I feel the same way

Sigh, what happened to this thread. A few hours ago it was all Irn Bru bars and Freddos, now it's turned into some sort of discussion on the referendum

 

[JonathanEx]

All things considered, I think leave will win.

Not sure why.

Would you care to make a percentage guess for funsies? We don't have many leave predictions right now.

 

[Lordzap]

Me, my parents and two sisters all voted for remain. Hoping remain wins.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Oh god that was something. Who was it who said they would eat their hat if it was that bad and then it turned out even worse. That was crazy.

Paddy Ashdown.

WAKE UP SHEEPLE

I'm sure a Simpsons episode predicted this.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Voted earlier in the north east.

Very clear to see it was sadly a heavily "out" region.

 

[caramac]

Myself, my wife and one of my sons just got back from the polling station, we all voted to remain.

 

[avaya]

Voted! Cheeky uber snagged in middle of fucking no where back to W1. Might cost me less than 100 in taxi fare.

 

[dark10x]

Vaguely curious but why do you think it would cost you? I ask because I doubt any trade deals the UK would strike would differ much from the current ones.

Can't go into it here but I will lose money due to my employment situation. It's all but guaranteed. So thanks. I guess I'm selfish too.

 

[Rich!]

48/52 leave

 

[Moosichu]

Seriously. Leave would cost me dearly and I'm terrified of that.

ditto

Voted remain!

Can't go into it here but I will lose money due to my employment situation. It's all but guaranteed. So thanks. I guess I'm selfish too.

Eurogamer are too beurocratic that's why! We need to make a ukgamer site that is independent from that undemocratic monstrosity!

 

[phisheep]

Oh god that was something. Who was it who said they would eat their hat if it was that bad and then it turned out even worse. That was crazy.

Paddy Ashdown I think.

Beaten.

 

[Psychotext]

Missus and I brandished our pencils, scratched in a vote for remain, politely said thank you to the polling station workers and left to the silent cheers of progressive citizens across the EU.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Why couldn't we just have had a fucking referendum for Lisbon? Would've sailed through and really put the issue to bed.

 

[CyclopsRock]

From the Guardian. Disappointingly low.

I'm glad. As a remain voter who has significant problems with the way the EU works, I'd hate to have a generation coming up with no appetite for change.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Neighbours voted remain. They were feeling good about it until I filled them in on the Chomp/Fudge situation.

Needless too say, lots of anger and regret...

 

[mangochutney]

Yeah, but it's still bad for democracy.

Was looking up Northern Ireland brexit fears. God, why do people want to turn back the clock?

I'm curious to know why NI is deemed one entire voting area.

Seems a bit big for that.

In other news, I notice that Betfair Exchange has almost reached £65m matched! Crazy amount. Odds now lengthened to 7/1 for leaving.

 

[Lashley]

Hoyed 20 on a leave win

 

[spuckthew]

Waterloo is no ordinary station. And London is thought to be Remain central so that is a shame. Hopefully the Scots save us.

London itself sure, but Waterloo is where all the rich old snobby Leave voters who live in Surrey and Hampshire travel to.

 

[JonathanEx]

48/52 leave

Ta! You're on the spreadsheet.

 

[Geminosity]

Paddy Ashdown.

You mean the man who predicted economic disaster if we didn't join the Euro currency?

 

[Acorn]

From the Guardian. Disappointingly low.

My generation are useless cunts. Our parents protested we sit and play candy crush and mumble.

Fucking useless cunts.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

You mean the man who predicted economic disaster if we didn't join the Euro currency?

He's not perfect, but he's still bloody good. Would take him over any of the party leaders we have at the moment.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Hoyed 20 on a leave win

Pound crashes so badly on a leave vote you'll win nothing.

 

[Aki-at]

I am a bit surprised remainers are sweating it, all indications are this isnt going to be that close.

Work colleagues I've spoken to about it today have said they or their family are voting leave and their Londoner's too! Pretty much why I'm bricking it.

 

[Antialias]

Voted Remain this morning. This whole thing has made me ashamed to be British.

This whole referendum was just to promote the movie! How far does this rabbit hole go?!

 

[Syder]

Are we guessing the results here. I think it'll be 61% Remain

Wouldn't be surprised if Remain have more than that when all's said and done.

I met a friend at the polling station today who's been posturing all month that he's voting Leave 'as a protest' vote. He was saying it as we walked into the polling station and when he came out he looked guilty and admitted he was too scared to do it. Gave me a good chuckle.

I feel a lot of people will have this change of heart today because they're too worried about the consequences.

GAF PREDICTIONS

Right, I'm ready to reopen the GAF predictions spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Atr8Mb1up4xLLJXJT1OqPgnqBEF_4iBz0Dbvy9mDWr0/edit?usp=sharing

Any new predictions, post them and I'll add them in.

If you've already given a prediction, but want to update it, then do as well. Personally while I'm still happy with my percentage - I've upped turnout because I've changed my mind on that.


EDIT: Maybe I should add a column for best British sweet too.

Turnout 74%
Remain 55%
Leave 45%

 

[Rush_Khan]

To be honest, I would be very shocked if Leave won. My whole family voted Remain and pretty much most of my friends except one or two are voting Remain. Most of my Facebook was filled with Remain stuff and nothing was for Leave.

I know this is anecdotal but I'm confident most people are in favour of remaining.

 

[avaya]

Every generation since the Greatest generation have been a pack of cunts. Dunno why those guys fought for us, pissing it all away.

 

[TheChaos0]

I've made it and voted remain. Let's see what happens tomorrow!

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Must admit I flipflopped today a little, I felt like voting leave in a "fuck the system" kind of way but ultimately decided against.

 

[iceatcs]

very 50:50 in my community which it quite surprises for Londoner. But many of us have young family already seem to lead on Brexit, whereas post-graduate groups more to stay in.

 

[Carl]

Would you care to make a percentage guess for funsies? We don't have many leave predictions right now.

58% Leave
42% remain.

 

[whyamihere]

I really want Remain to win for many reasons, but particularly to see every article use pictures of Nigel Farage looking crushed and sad.

 

[Madchad]

Well what ever happens tomorrow ill have my nice new copy of Uncharted 4 to play. Mwahahaha.

 

[phisheep]

Vaguely curious but why do you think it would cost you? I ask because I doubt any trade deals the UK would strike would differ much from the current ones.

Not who you asked, but it is not just about trade deals.

I import a lot of stuff: the pound tanks on Friday, my cost of purchases goes up 15%, gross profit down->net profit down->less to live on.
