So this is a little overdue, but a HUGE welcome to all of our South Australian Founding Members. The following people are the ones that were among the first to physically sign the paperwork we require to get us towards our initial target of 150 electors, and they all deserve a massive thank you!

He cant fight fare because when two people fight fare the one whose right is usually wins. And at this point I think Michael Atkinson realizes that the introduction of R18+ is the right thing to do.

I'm going to be on ABC radio this evening discussing the lack of an R18+ classification rating for videogames in Australia from about 6:10pm onwards. I'll be following a pre-recorded piece with the SA Attorney General himself.

Atkinson is a blind old man. He clearly fails to acknowledge the survey showing that the Australian public wants this R18 rating for games, and then claims "Oh nah, no-one wants it".
The fact that he says "Well if you don't like it, vote against me!" really shows he is starting to crack.
I swear the radio interviewer tries not to laugh when he brings up the G4C party.

A nice highlight of inconsistencies in both the arguments Atkinson presents and the ones inherent in our current rating system.

Well said for the rebuttal. There have been numerous flaws in our rating system for some time now, and Mr. Atkinson's response was nothing but straw man. Furthermore, showing one single report on the impact of video games doesn't make it absolute.

Hi Guys,
Much as it was a great way to meet new people, we are definitely going to get 150 members from the send-in sheets, especially if you spread the word, so there won't be another 'official' sign-up event, at least attended by me, in the coming future.
Grizzly, Chris and Alyona : I'm working through my backlog of emails and I will be replying ... See Moreto all you separately soon. It looks like we will have a great core group of engaged members working on this together, and I want to make sure I spend the time to get it right. =)
Speak soon,
