Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Our wings are not tired.

Would it muddy the waters more, or less, to go back and vote a second time? Not suggesting it, just asking the question.

I only have one double vote, and the choices are identical, and they are sent a few seconds apart, so clealy just an error. If someone (RL) made an error when they sent their ballot and would like to correct it I don't mind making the change. Send me a note.

Wasn't the six month thing part of what we already voted? if not, does that mean we have to have another vote on this? Wasn't closing discussion once something was decided one of the main points of voting for voting?

Sophia and everyone, thanks so much for writing up that pros&cons thing. It's amazingly helpful.

Was discussed a lot, but hasn't yet been voted on.

Damn.

This is my fault. I asked if there was anything else we should have on this ballot - so I should have checked.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

We actually decided there was too much on the ballot to put that on, way back when I asked. So not your fault. Hivemind and one time decided against it. Also, there are 3 choices that people have bandied about, and we haven't decided how to deal with that.

Sophia and everyone, thanks so much for writing up that pros&cons thing. It's amazingly helpful.

They really are. I think this is useful for the community on future votes. Except most of the future votes will be more self-evident.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sorry, I just had to do it...

You just lost your status as bestest secret boyfriend. I was planning on waiting for the lovely number to report on voting to moment.

46 early voters have spoken.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A big huge THANKS from me to Sophia, and Jon, and Laura, and all the Sompies, and everyone else.

(Am I wrong, or does it really feel like things are smoothing out? Yay.)
