What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Er, I thought we were going to wait and look at this poll first before diving right back into that without having made any noticeable headway.

We agreed to put it off until tensions weren't running so high. The poll is a separate issue.

Okay. I hope tensions are lower now. Or maybe they're just resigned and defeated.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm disinclined to vote for a new thread until I have a sense of the poll results.

connie has, of course, already graciously held off the voting for a while. It is her prerogative to move forward.

But as for myself, I don't want to keep adding on until we have more of a building plan. Just a few commonly agreed upon guiding principles which can help us determine these choices as something other than ad hoc decisions which contribute to sprawl.

When Molly's running around with inset mirrorshades then I love it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Come on, Hec. I know you like the Sprawl.

I prefer Chiba City, myself.

Well, I'm proposing reopening it tomorrow, so I hope someone is around to deal with it. Feel free not to vote, Hec.

What's the rush, connie? The fall season doesn't start for a month.
