Buyer of our house came over yesterday to measure up the windows and wanted to see how quickly the radiators heated up the house so had to put it on.... don't think trying to explain to the new buyers of your house I can't, because I'm in a battle royale on a video game forum, was going to cut it

The OP clearly states "The premise is simple, be the last person to put your heating on.
This will rely on honesty, so post in the thread once you've put your heating on"

As it's not my heating and none of us put it on, I am assuming I am still in. But it might require a ruling from the court of GR.

If it was up to me I would say you are still in.

But it's not, and you're out

"They".

Hmmn. Would this mean... "you"?

It would seem rather extravagant to go to the lengths of putting one's house on the market and having viewers round just to turn the heating on, but...

No! This was an attempt to warm up and get away with it! How many more people will be around and "ask to heat the whole house up"?!?

I'd disagree with the ruling of other people here. You're away from home and the heating came on automatically, I'd say you're still in.

I'm still in at the moment, it's still too warm to be putting the heating on.

Next time however, he shall be neutered.

I thank you for your generosity Lord Commander.

However, I think karma has made its own decision. We've got back to the house and there's a power cut in the area. So we've not even got the slight heat from a lightbulb to warm us.

Cwmbran has got the power tonight, Newport gets custody for the weekend.
