And getting a typical Buffista response, we could see her thinking "hm ... that was a hit ... have to keep this for future use"
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Just a note on dates from me, even though I know people have lots of other considerations about them--part of the awesomeness that is the F2F in the Midwest this year for me is that I was planning on going to Kalamazoo again this year, and if they're not on the same weekend, I will be able to work it out (probably) to go to the F2F as well! And as I haven't been to a F2F since DC I would really love to. Kalamazoo is 5/8-11, and if it's the weekend before or after I will probably be able to find someplace to be for the intervening days and then do F2F.
So, um, think of me? If you want. It's just a long and expensive plane flight from Britain, and I haven't seen a lot of you in years! And I would like to.
Anyway. Back to your original voting.

...I really hate to open a can of worms, but should we have a run-off vote between Minneapolis and Madison if the margin is only one vote? We should decide now what we want to do since I know that the votes may shift back and forth for the rest of the day.

That which does not kill you should RUN
If we end up with 2 cities getting a close-but-not-tied amount of votes, will we have a runoff vote? Because maybe the people who voted for Detroit or Houston feel strongly about Madison vs. Minneapolis.
(I didn't say "preferential," mind.)
Just curious.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I strongly advocate a run-off between Minneapolis and Madison if the margin is 6 votes or less. Go run-off, choose run-off.
