Current Stompy Feet: ita, Jon B, DXMachina, P.M. Marcontell, Liese S., amych
19: amych helps us understand the difference between whuffie and Marcie: [link] More explainations follow.
20. We talk about whuffie ad nauseum. And whiffle. And whuffle.
21, beth starts to clarify issues:

22. We move on to talking about stompies and what they do. How they see themselves, how we see them, how newer community members may see them: [link]
23. I guess I started IT. But Jesse says a similar thing. [link]
And I really think that from there to the end is worth reading, because it starts to be all about the voting.
Ahh, do we need to close a tag? Nevermind.
I lied. I fixed Sophia's post #5582.
What did I do-- It looks fine to me (and I am not using any tags.)
Jon, did you see my question? Is my ballot supposed to go to my own email address (for validation?) and it's automatically also routed to jengod?
I didn't see the question, but the email goes to Jengod at votes@buffistas.org and is cc:'ed to you. The email headers should make that clear.
Must go to bed now! My tiredness is making my linkys wonky!
there is the implication of "it's broken" by having the vote if there isn't much discussion to the contrary.
Of course there's an implication of "it's broken". The vote is to see if the implication can stand to be made explicit, or not.
It seems harmless enough, since it's only a decision to find out if the people chattering represent a minority or not.
And no, even if I think it's important, I bail if it goes on too long, or comes around too often. Because, really, it stops being worth it, when you tally time and effort and sometimes blood pressure.
I only have so much to give here.
David -- I changed the text near the top of the form. Hopefully, it's now more clear. And now, like Sophia, I gone.
My ballot has been submitted.
Particular thanks to Cindy for rounding up the cats, Sophia for tracking everything and Jon for putting up the form.
However the vote goes I'm happy with the hard work that got us to this point.
