But I just want to point out that we didn't vote on anything else on the front page, including our description.
The front page was designed and written before we had our voting rules.
Still not sure where the fire is.
Right. Sir. Honey.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
is a convincing argument to me for voting in the first place, despite what I said upthread.
I agree.
Also, if we have a smooshed voting period, can someone just count me in on a yes vote, cause I have no internets at home. (Although I could go to a library and check, I suppose)

Which is one of the reasons we have a three day voting period.

Whether we truncate anything or not, can we at least get the proposal up in Lightbulbs? Then we can talk about the vote there and we can talk about how long to talk about the vote there here. Yeah.
Is there an actual proposal post? If so, I second, thrid, fourth, or whatever it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's already open.

Ha! That's what I get for being a smart ass.

Not javachik
voting to start as soon as we can throw a poll page up and end at 1PM board time on Monday.
I'm Sophia, no Internet at home, so either count me as a yes, or get it up before 7 PM tonight, or keep it open until at least 8 PM PST Tues.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I don't really know what people think of this one, but since the strike is likely going to continue for some time, should we create a Writers' Strike thread? This would put everything in one place, and could serve as a Buffistas action thing too. Once the strike is over, kill it.

I don't know that anyone has had problems with the appropriation of Minearverse, which features two striking writers, in the absence of anything more on-topic to discuss.

Our wings are not tired.
Minearverse seems the logical place for strike related natter. After the conclusion of negotiations when there is a new fair agreement in place for the writers, then we can talk about shiny new things being written in Minearverse!
