| Quote: Wellsy13 "What a shocking argument. Are you really comparing that to what I'm saying?
You're saying that I'm calling two games one game by using that analogy. I'm not and never have (again, another straw man). I've called them an event. So no, I wouldn't say "I have one chicken nugget", I'd say I have one box of chicken nuggets, one (box) being the quantity of items I bought, just like one ticket to one event was sold. Not two tickets to two games. That wasn't an option.
If there was a survey about the number of chicken nuggets eaten, I wouldn't expect to be included 6 times of I only ate one. Just like someone shouldn't be included twice in an attendance statistic if they only watched one game. There is no accurate way to tell who stayed for both games.'"
You are saying one game was played, that’s why you only have 4 data samples but 5 games have been played. You can call them whatever you like, 5 games have been played, and 5 attendances have been given. I can show them.
Are you really saying that if someone asked you how many chicken nuggets you had you would say ‘a box’ rather than actual number you had? Of course you wouldn’t. You would sound like a moron.
And if there were a survey about number of chicken nuggets eaten, and you ate 6. You would be counted 6 you would be counted 6 times. Even if you bought you 6 chicken nuggets from McDonalds, in a box of 6, even if you only intended to eat 3, even though you couldn’t leave some and come finish them off later.

Get two. As long as you don’t leave and come back again it only counts as one. So you will get a bargain.

Just a Le Big Mac I reckon.
Thought about getting fries too, but that messed up my mind too much wondering how many I'd actually get.

But if you buy two and it only counts as one, it only counts as one’s calories as well. So you could buy 2(for the price of one), leave 1 then in effect you have only had half and bingo you have got yourself a relatively low fat big mac.
In fact, im converted, I like this principle. I’m going to go buy a crate of 24 lagers, drink ten, leave 14 for another day and in effect I will have drunk an average of -4 beers. No hangover and in fact ill wake up healthier tomorrow than I did today. Jackpot.

| Quote: RLBandit "Arguing about words doesn't get to the core point, which is to understand how well or badly attendances are doing.
For argument's sake, let's say each round of Superleague was played on a single day, at a single venue, like a super bum-numbing magic weekend crammed into one day. If each one of these days was attended by just 10k people (say), we'd be kidding ourselves to say that RL was in great shape because our attendances 'averaged 10k per game' - even though I accept there's a semantic argument to be made where that is technically the case. The point is, it can be as technically true as you like, but it wouldn't represent good attendance figures. 10k attending a whole day is plainly not the same as different groups of 10k people going to multiple games. One says that RL attracts 10k fans, the other says we attract 70k fans. By the same logic, it's a little misleading to say that we sold 45k tickets for Eng-Aus and 45k tickets for Wales-Italy. We didn't. We sold 45k tickets for a double header. In terms of tracking attendances, measuring performance, planning finances, etc. etc. you have to discount the attendances somewhat - I think halving it to 22.5k is probably too much, but recording it as two lots of 45k is misleading too, because we all know that if the games were played separately they wouldn't get 45k each. The only case where I'd change my mind on that is if the double-header cost twice as much as a normal single game event (or close to twice as much anyway, taking into account the cost savings in venue, policing, admin, etc. - two games on the same day are presumably slightly cheaper to stage)'"
