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.

See, whereas those of us blissfully ignorant of dancing boybands have no idea what you're talking about! bitterchick, it's a hell of your own making.
Proposer composing the ballot and Proposer choosing the way the vote is tallied go hand-in-hand, because the wording of a ballot will frame the question and (how many and what kind of) answers. I like this, and it allows for case-by-case flexibility, and it avoids mathy argumentation, and I like it.
Therefore, let's do it.
In all seriousness, things have passed because we made a list of things a lot of us wanted and then voted on them, not just because we're lemmings.
Oh, of course. You people aren't NEARLY lemming-like enough. This whole thing could have been a lot smoother, let me tell you.
Also? I had nearly forgotten all about O-Town.
it's a hell of your own making.
Hey, I signed on for NSYNC. No one ever told me I was gonna be deluged with O-Town by association.
In news that actually belongs on this thread, I'm a big fan of the proposer composing the ballot. How much would it suck to propose something and discover that ballot didn't cover what you had wanted it to?
I kinda think being showered with parking spaces would hurt. But I'll take the other stuff.
They're virtual parking spaces. Like portable holes. You just pull one out of your pocket whenever you need it.
Sweeeeeeeet.
(Duuuuuuuuuude.)

Wouldn't it be easier if your car folded up into a palm pilot? (Jetson-like.) IJS.
I know of Sartre, but I didn't know of "No Exit" or that he wrote it. "Like Sartre, Only Longer" is Googleable, making us look clever instead of random. It's a good play on the first thread title and just as short. I want it.
Sure looks like letting the proposer write the ballot will solve the problem of runoffs. Sweet.

(Sometimes, very rarely, on Odd Thursdays in Months With No R, I am clever.)
(Signed, came up with that one, but fine with No Exit, which was what I was thinking of in the first place, because really? Hell? It's so totally other people. I mean, duh.)
Part of why I like "Like Sartre, Only Longer" is it just seems the natural progression from "Like Kafka, Only Funnier."
