Errr... Shouldn't we keep the runoff poll open for a few days?

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!

I had no idea the run off vote was going to end so soon otherwise I would have voted as soon as I saw the post in Press.

The status is NOT quo.
I just voted now. Hadn't checked my computer until today.

Let's not reopen the vote.
Debetesse's post said that the runoff closed today at noon. I think that keeping the poll open looks like we're reopening because someone doesn't like the results, which I believe is bad precedent.

In principle, I agree with you, but I think leaving the poll open for only a day was a bad idea to begin with. The post in Press didn't mention the deadline, and I'd be very surprised if there aren't some people (like me) who didn't even see the announcement until the poll had closed, due to the incredibly short time limit.
I think 3 days is the absolute minimum a poll should stay open, to allow people who don't have time to log on every day to participate.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I'm fine with the runoff being repoened, but I totally see what Vortex means. I'd say repost the runoff with a nice big clear explanation - leaving no room for misinterpretation - about why it's being reposted.
But I'm ok with whatever, and will do my SF-pimping thang no matter what the date.

I had no idea that the run-off vote was only intended to be open for 1 day.

One day seems too short. There are many people that may not even get to the board on a daily basis. Really! I'm sure of it.
