I'm think that most magi will vote tails thinking that it's the less obvious choice.

I did anyway! :D

Is this your attempt at repeating Derren's proof that we can get ten heads in a row? lol

It might take us considerably more time than it did him though. (Though what with the subliminal effect this post may have on those who have now read it, maye it won't?)

I think the fact that it is the one on top may make it people's first choice most of the time.

Hmm... Well tails started to lead, but it seems to be wavering around the halfway mark now. I think I need a more scientific polling method that will confirm my bias.

As an old work friend used to say 'if you don't get the results you wanted, you're obviously not looking hard enough'. Stats can say whatever you want them to!! :lol:

I was one of the initial voters who went with tails and returning to the thread every so often noticed that heads started to accelerate once tails was mentioned in replies.

It would probably be better if posts were disabled for this poll.
