When should we expect the results to be
announced? Voting closes at 23:59 on
Saturday - will it be announced shortly after or next morning, or later?
I won't be staying up late to do any counting. Lucky for me, 00:00UTC
is only 8pm here so there are a few hours where I could be counting
before it's my bed time. I can't guarantee that I will do it in those
hours, but it's a possibility. I think realistically (and I haven't
talked to the other members about this), you shouldn't be expecting
them before Sunday night or Monday morning. Obviously, we'll send them
out as soon as we've all counted and have an agreement about it.
I have no problem waiting a couple of days if that's the way you
choose to do it, but it seems to be that you could keep a running
total as the votes come in and then it would just require you all to
agree on the result after the deadline. If you all happened to be
online at midnight (incidentally, is it midnight UTC or midnight
British Summer Time?), and by luck you all got the same answer, you
could have the result out in minutes.
