I've been thinking about it and just can't dismiss that you guys might be right about voting fraud. I am starting to think they'll never let us leave, but if the SNP win a majority at WM in 2015 (which is unlikely) and also at Holyrood in 2016 (which is likely) they could, theoretically, just go the UDI (Universal Declaration of Independence) route, there is nothing legally to prevent that but it would be much more fraught a process than a yes vote would have been.
I understand to most on here this isn't really important, we're just a small country of little significance and it doesn't affect your lives at all, but I really wish other people around the world could understand a bit better, think about if it was your country in our position how you would feel. I still read articles about it every day have done for 3 years now and there are thousands that are still defiantly displaying yes placards and posters in their windows and cars.
It has caused divisions which will never heal, but I think that's okay as when people are in the wrong the only right position is to be opposed to them so the yes side won't back down or go away quietly, we are in it for the long haul, I just fear we are essentially powerless and fighting a rigged fight all along.
