I am so fucking confused. What are people proposing and seconding now? Wolfram didn't propose anything, did he?
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I thought they were seconding Faith naked.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
I'll second naked Faith.

I am still confused, but thanks.

Burrell, Wolfram said:
Speaking of which, I move that we discuss how multi-vote items that fail to get over 50% of the vote should get decided
The seconding followed that, and then I said, could we just slow down a little and some people agreed with that.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to muddy things. I really thought I saw naked Faith put forward as a proposal.

Thrive to spite them
Actually I wanted to say something that tied into what Wolfram had brought up earlier.
I'm a little apprehensive about this first vote, not that I think it will go badly, but I'm afraid that once we vote and see the system work that there will be this push to vote on other things.
We already have certain things queued up and Wolfram is proposing something else. This isn't a personal attack at you Wolfram.
Yes, there are going to be issues that we have to deal with, but we haven't had our first vote yet, our new system has only been in place for what---less than a week---and already we have a back log of issues to vote on. I think we need to slow down and see how things play out before we start making more issues to be voted on.

I am so sick of seeing things put up for a vote that it isn't even funny. I no longer enjoy visiting Buffistas much. But that's my ish. Clearly Wolfram and others are liking the whole voting thing a lot more than I am.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Actually, we hadn't even gotten the thread created before we had a backlog of issues to deal with.
And if it weren't for that fact, I'd make a new proposal.

You did, and, if I actually thought there would be any possibility of our voting on it would do any good, I'd go all James Carville & Marlee Matilin on it.
