I'm very much in favor of ranked choices, for both dates and cities.

Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I guess, though, how we vote is up to DebetEsse?
We're really getting practice relinquishing decisions, aren't we?
Well, I don't know how we know who's "in charge" of this thing. So far Debet has taken the reins, which I have no problem with at all, for the record, but I don't know who decides what.
People seem to hate ranked votes, but perhaps ranking would have made things clearer for NOLA.
However, *I* am not going to just bust in and say "Yes! We MUST have a ranked vote for F2F 2006!" because, as always, some people will agree, some people will disagree, there will be arguments, and regardless of which voting method we use, someone will be unhappy with the outcome.
All I'm offering is my opinion, and wondering *if* in fact we might change how we vote, *how* does that decision even get made.

If I'm not crazy, we did use ranked voting for the earlier one. Last year was the anomaly, though I don't recall why.

Then I will do it for you, Steph, because I'm unlikely to make it to the 2006 F2F anyway and thus have no dog in this particular hunt, and because I'm in Australia and none of you can touch me anyway. Neener neener.
I likes the ranking. Go ranking, choose ranking. All those in favour, say intergalactic planetary planetary intergalactic. All those against, you're on my list.

Well, me, obviously. And you, for I have planted my flag where ranking flows like water.
Hm. May be time to reduce my meds.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
where ranking flows like water.
I think you can get an ointment for that.

Here's how we picked the dates for LA - I knew I remembered setting up some kind of poll that allowed for preferences. I don't see any reason why we can't do somehting similar again. [link]
