Just to return to the former topic for a minute post, I'm glad that the heretical delay in posting the results actually seems like a good thing. They will be posted Saturday night, board time.
That's good news. I was worried too many people would be turned off.
Yeah, I thought so too. For the record, I was one of the last-est people to vote on the former ballot - I was trying to read as much as I could before voting, to know the reasons people posted for and against each option. I waited until the 'last minute' in order to catch up as much as I could.
how about a year's holiday in England?
Am-Chau, I wish.
BTW, have we all realised that we're all going to this effort just as the show is about to end? It tickles . . . .
Maybe Nilly's extra day of vote counting will be just the necessary tonic.
And on the Seventh day the Buffistas did rest, and there was much peace and harmony throughout Buffistaland.
Sabbath. It's not just for mainstream religions anymore.

Actually, that's a good reason to go through this process now. We're going to have to make some big decisions as to the future direction of this board...
In order to keep this thread from going 12 hours without a post, I was going to post a lengthy opinion piece on the recent discussions. But as a courtesy to skimmers I shortened it to highlight just the fighting words:
Quorum ..... Representation ..... Majority ..... Moratorium ..... Australiiiiiia ..... Deathmatch ..... Voter Turnout ..... Abstension ..... Discussion ..... Ballot ..... Policy ..... Consensus ..... Monkey ..... Preference ..... Headache
IJS.
I was going to turn that list of fighting words into something porny, but then I realised that it would involve monkeys, and that's just
wrong.

In that case, I think someone should inform the monkeys.
Dave Chappelle has a brilliant porny bit about man monkey love.
I'd try and recap it, but there's a reason he has his job, and I have mine, and it has nothing to do with his lack of mad computer skillz.
Australiiiiiia ..... Deathmatch .....
Braiiiinsss.
Discussion ..... Ballot ..... Policy .....
Fried... brainnns....
