Hmm. Aside from a few loyal followers, few of those that voted believe sasguru is real - twice as many believe Wilmsow is real in fact, who incidentally helped bolster sasguru's vote by 1. DimPrawn hasn't convinced the majority that he exists either, though if collective decisions are anything to go by, it does appear that EO is real. Nevertheless Wilmslow is not universally recognised as being real, with only half of those voting being believers, but it's still a good turnout for him, especially when it's seasonally adjusted:
It's a little uprising that AtW did not get more recognition, though no doubt part of this reason can be attributed to people not realising that it was a multiple choice poll and fecking up. So by extension everyone's vote can be climatically normalised by somewhere between a factor of 1 and 1.5, depending on which conclusion you wish to reach.

If I had a pound for everone I have im'ed about this. I would have £2Originally posted by DaveB View PostI'm still not convinced about Wilmslow.
He's either a sockie of someone who was at the Manchester do, or it's all a drunken conspiracy by those who were, or both.
it's not a conspiracy, the Wilmslow you see here is real, and a fine fellow he is too. I wish all the best to his finger and his back. and the rest of him.
