did she choose that?!? hope you get free buns

Yeah she chose it as she loves cake decorating, don’t think she knew the start time though

 

[Plugger35]

So Raveneyes parents listened to Def Leppard's Hysteria in the late 80s.

He's a Collingwood supporter whose parents were probably teenagers when they had him so that checks out.

Def Leppard got big votes from me, one of the very very few musical memories my Dad's given me.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

I trialed a no billies round a while ago, and it was established that if they serve a purpose, it's that they're a good tie-breaker.

So many equal places.

Very fitting, especially because we're literally at the end of June.

OK, confirmed, let's do it.

Doubt there'll be too many previous noms, but no podiums just in case.

Is it 2 days for noms to be in? 9pm Tuesday?

24 hours for noms, 48 hours for votes.

So 9pm Monday for noms, and then 9pm Wednesday for votes.
