Formal voting hasn'y been announced and won't be until midnight.
We announced the proposal (which propsed voting), but are up for revisions up to midnight tonight.
This is really confusing.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

This is really confusing.
We're okay. We can keep the polls open on this first go round to make sure everybody is enfranchised. People have to get used to the idea of voting.
If 4 gets shot down, then we just come back and find a date range that feels fair. If #1 gets rejected, then it's mass chaos and anarchy.

So anyone else want to weigh in on
1) whether we extend the voting period in this announcement or later if needed.
2) whether we change the wording on #4 to Lyra's.

Yes. Let's cut down on the confusion and extend it through the weekend. That is through Sunday night until it hits midnight and becomes Monday.
whether we change the wording on #4 to Lyra's.
I think that's fine.

Thanks for keeping track of all this, Sophia. You already earned your medal a longtime ago, but you're still like the class secretary.

OK, draft ballot is here: [link]
Can a couple people try it out? Right now it sends the email to me, but I'll change it in a bit once I'm convinced it's working correctly.

Thanks for all the fish.
Insent, Jon... This doesn't count as my actual vote, right?

I tried it out too. It is lovely! I hate to make more work for you, but should it tell me my vote has been submitted?

Insent, Jon...
Got it.
This doesn't count as my actual vote, right?
Absolutely not. I won't be getting the actual emails. I'm just testing the system. Did you get a copy of your ballot, and was it correct?
