All is well that ends in pizza.

Thanks for all the fish.
So things were okay during the deathmatch? And we'll be good to go tomorrow?

I'd like to make a suggestion -- a search engine that lets you look up someone's profile addy. I've needed to contact a few people regarding Seeekrit Santa stuff, and I've had to scroll through various boards to find them before I could email them. or maybe just a page with profile names and addys? (appropriately disguised as not to get spammed by listbots)

I think in the past there have been strong privacy objections to this very notion. Which is why Deena has created a private opt-in collection of contact emails and phone numbers and gift-preferences.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I think that the fact that folks can choose not to reveal their e-mail address on the board mitigates that concern a bit.

I'm with Vortex. I'd like a search functionality, not to bring up all of the contact info, just to bring up their user profile, which people can leave blank if they so choose. And I'd like it for selfish reasons (I'm always looking for where I put OC quotes and I know they're in my own profile).
Also, now that we are somewhere new I have three questions:
1. Should we start collecting $$ for fees? What's our balance like?
2. What's up with user filter?
3. Now that we are here, will we please be getting the quote generator for the top-of-the-page quote? As much as I like the woodstock quote, I'm up for something new.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Money-wise, we're ok for a few months. HOWEVER, this does not mean that if any Buffistas are feeling flush, they should not feel free to send me money. Paypal or email for address to donations@buffistas.org. I'll do up a financial report maybe this weekend.

I don't know if I'm the only one, but I really don't know anything about this. I only learned about it because Deena pimped it to us in Atlantic Canadians, and I really thought she had one of us as a secret santa, and was being sneaky to get info for her gift.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
This is because Deena is sneaky, yes. I'll post in Press about it. Apologies to anyone who didn't get to take advantage who wanted to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
User filter is on the list of code mods, but we haven't finished settling in here yet -- stuff like mailing lists, etc have to be installed.
Once that's done -- code.
We also need a re-listing of people willing to code.
