I just wanted to mention that we've pushed the deadline for High Hat No. 10 back until the end of the month due to the sway of other projects on the editors' time. Which means that if you've been thinking about pitching something to us, now's a great time: highhatsubmissions AT gmail DOT com.
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Lightbulbs is now open to discuss the following proposal from Jesse:
Going back to an earlier part of the conversation, I'd like to formally propose eliminating "no preference" as a voting option and also revisit the minimum number of votes needed for a vote to count. I'm not going to propose a specific number at this point, because I could be persuaded that just getting rid of no preference serves the purpose, and I'm not sure what the right number would be anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Due to a change I had to make on the database end of things, everyone who had been set to be remembered, will unset. You can just switch yourself back. Please holler in admin if you need your password reset--I am very sorry--I couldn't work out a way around it.

I'm going to lock the tables and run a full database backup in five minutes. I have no idea how long it should last, but I will cancel it if it looks insane.
