I have a question--is the Cheesebutt document finished? Can we put it up somewhere? If so, Jon, can you make it pretty?
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Sorry, I got distracted by TAR.
This was the easiest vote ever to count. 72 people voted, and the final count was 71 for yes, 1 for no.

Thanks for counting, Perkins.

Title Delurking 1 -- Because we don't always check our e-mail.
Slug Stop by and say hello--lurkers and prolific posters alike. Tell us something about yourself, and take a moment to update your location in your profile.
Description: Our annual delurking and positioning thread, to be opened each October 1 and closed each October 31, where everyone is encouraged to stop by, lurkers and regular posters alike, and say a little bit about themselves so we can learn about the people we don't post with, or the people who read but don't post. Also, people are encouraged in that month to enter or update the location field in their profile, with the note that they can be as vague as their country or as specific as their street address, with the options in between of state, province, zip code, city, and the like--whatever feels comfortable

Okay, I'm biting the bullet minutes early because I want to get to sleep as soon as possible tonight.

Our wings are not tired.
Who else is dying to know who sent in the lone "no" vote? ;P

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I assumed it was Tino.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
It's hilarious to me. I was actually glad there was a dissenting vote, because otherwise, we wouldn't be Buffistas, if we'd managed to actually consense on something. I mean, we can't ever be unanimous! The world would collapse into the hellmouth or something!
Anyway, it wasn't me. The hellmouth probably wouldn't be that bad this time of year as it has apparently frozen over, since this makes the second thread I've voted for.

I'm sure it was someone that knew it was a landslide and just wanted to say no because they never do and needed practice. But it wasn't me either. Well done Lone No.
