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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

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.

But it's such a fun place to play!

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.

I second that.

I can make it part of the date survey, actually. Two birds with one stone since Madison and Minneapolis have similar climates.
