Question:
My air conditioning has broken again and I'm sitting in a pool of gonad soup at 90 degrees in my house (33 degrees C). That's why I forgot this week's question. Will my air conditioning get fixed this week?
Results:
Yes was the clear winner with 78% of the votes from the following selection:
- Yes (78%)
- No (22%)
Analysis:
The best I can say is yes, it's been fixed, but it did break 3 times. It appears to be running fine now and I feel comfortable that the fault has now been correctly diagnosed and fixed, so I'm going to say yes, it's fixed.

Question:
I seem unable to get these votes out in time these days. Oh well, better late than never. Do you believe in free will?
Results:
Yes and No tied with 50% of the votes each from the following:
- Yes (50%)
- No (50%)
Analysis:
I find it interesting that this vote is tied. I would have thought it very difficult for someone to believe that they have no control over what they do. That said, there's a fair bit of evidence to support that everything is predestined. Im fascinated by quantum mechanics right now and there's a lot you can extrapolate from the fact that particles hold a super position to suggest that free will doesn't exist. Not least of which is determining whether the cat is alive or dead. Although the question should be is the cat alive or dead; or alive and dead. But what do I know?

Alright, alright, I'll take a look and see if I can figure it out. It's not actually that easy to do, but I'm sure I'll manage it.

Question:
Will Paul talk himself into keeping his job?
Results:
Yes was the clear winner with 86% of the votes from the following selection:
- Yes (86%)
- No (14%)
Analysis:
Unfortunately we won't find out until mid month. To give a little context, he has to interview for his job because folks are being let go, but he wants the redundancy package. Beyond me why voluntary redundancy isn't an option, but its probably due to some HR bollocks to show you're not being biased in your decision. Anyway, I still think he keeps it.

Question:
Is there anybody worse than me at picking a fantasy premier league team?
Results:
Yes and No tied with 50% of the votes each from the following:
- Yes (50%)
- No (50%)
Analysis:
A 50/50 result and that's fair. I was going to say that the only person worse than me is William, but he's set to go 1 point ahead of me after this week. That said, we're 70 points adrift of the others in our league. Predicting definitely doesn't run in our genes.

Analysis:
Probably should have asked this question next week rather than this week as I've been on meds this week that would help keep me out of medical establishments. Anyway, yes, I did indeed stay out of hospital this week.

Question:
Right, I'm motivated to get out and do stuff this week after my week of recuperation. How many times will I get out on my bike this week?
Results:
1, 3 and 5 tied with 22% of the votes each from the following:
- 0 (11%)
- 1 (22%)
- 2 (11%)
- 3 (22%)
- 4 (11%)
- 5 (22%)
- 6 (0%)
- 7 (0%)
Analysis:
A fairly split vote and I actually got it wrong myself. I thought i was only going to get out three times this week, but I actually made it out five times being Tuesday through Saturday. One thing I want sure about was when the week started and ended. Technically the vote question goes out Monday morning, so the week should probably be Monday through Sunday, but a week is normally Sunday through Saturday. In the end of didn't matter as i didn't go out this past Sunday, so the answer is definitely five.

We have a three week break coming up in the Premier League due to international games. Will any Premier League managers get sacked during the international break?
Results:
No was the clear winner with 56% of the votes from the following selection:
- Yes (44%)
- No (56%)
Analysis:
More people voted yes on this than I expected given that we're only five matches into the new season. Well, one week into the international break and none have gone yet. Still two more weeks to go though.

Analysis:
I haven't bought any yet, but I think it's inevitable that I will. My guess is that I'll buy a lot before the end of the year.
