To all the Scottish VGChartz users, how are you voting on September 18th? I can't make my mind up, but have heard a lot of compelling arguements from both campaigns. I'd like to gauge opinion with a simple yes or no poll, as it may be the only way I make up my mind. That or I flip a coin!

I'm not Scottish, but I don't think I would be voting for independence if I was. Both Scotland and the rest of the UK are stronger together - we're small enough countries as it is to keep relevance on the world stage without splitting into smaller parts.

I'm not Scottish, but I live in a country that had its vote for independence a few decades ago. Some things now are better, some are worse, it is hard to gauge everything.
Economic problems are usually in the center of every independence campaign, so it's probably the same with you. Just know, there will be some good times being independent, there are some drawbacks to it, but it is always better to be the master of your destiny. By being independent you show pride in your nation, and are able to better decide on what's important to your people.
If nothing else, you get goosebumps when you see your country's flag carried at the Olympic ceremony, when you see your country's crest on your passport or licence plate.
Just my opinion, if it's worth anything to you...

um... the US never had Canada, they had parts of it just like Canada had parts of the US as well.

Well, Sweeden has enjoyed a higher standard of living from being independent, so the better together because of large unions/countries arguement doesn't persuade me. That's one of the reasons I'd vote against rule by London, which only does what benefits itself and doesn't care if it negatively impacts the rest of the UK, which it does on a regular basis.

The past is such a tangled web of lies and deceit.


so you admit you lied?



I am not Scottish. But I want Scotland to be free. And people need to choose the option that will be beneficial for themselves.

Its different in the UK though, we're proud of being British and we're proud of the Union Jack. If I was Scottish I'd vote no.
