Stompies have a comment on this. But what have to figure out what it is first. Hold on.
I'm kind of upset that there is admin-discussion before there is all-Buffista discussion on this issue. I'm kind of upset that the admins, who aren't supposed to be any different from the rest of the Buffistas, are getting to kind of decide what actions they will take on something, without any other Buffistas necessarily knowing about it.
I also kind of know I wasn't supposed to talk about this. But I'm posting anyway, because I feel actually very strongly-- however awkwardly-- about this.
Rebecca, a situation arose in which the involved parties felt a respectful backchannel approach was the best first step. The situation evolved quickly from there.
We've been debating how to talk to others about it since then, then being a couple days ago.
Cause then we'd have to have a runoff, and we haven't decided how to do that yet.
No, you can still average the results.
And median and mode will be more telling spread out over 20 choices, than over 100.

I know. I see how it happened (I'm fairly sure), and I can understand how it's happened that it happened this way (...!). But I still feel unhappy with it.
(I won't talk here about the specifics of my understanding of the admin/Buffista relationship and admin responsibilities vs. plainly-Buffista responsibilities, because it kind of gets into the specifics of this situation, and I'm... being cryptic too.)
I'm also having a kind of emotional response to this situation. I'm aware of that.
Might I suggest sooner rather than later? RL's wiggins seems to be catching.
I am all curious and stuff now...
Might I say (having not read anything in discussion) that please bear in mind that fairness to all includes fairness to those you may or many not get along with?
Unless something radical has changed, nothing sneaky or underhanded has happened.
Thanks for saying that, Sophia. Now I don't feel like a gossipy old lady for being curious about it too.
And actually, I have a theory about what it might be...

My intent really hadn't been to tease people with information they don't have, btw. You have to believe me.
