Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Voting is supposed to open tomorrow and be up for three days, right? Tomorrow is the 14th, poll results are supposed to come out on the 15th. People could just wait to vote, if that's what they want.

That's the way I'm leaning. It shouldn't take long to absorb what the poll is saying, in regards to an individual's vote.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

FYI, the poll went up on 8/7 at 7:49am Board Time, so 1 week will be tomorrow at the same time. I will be unavailable. SO! unless people are opposed, I'd like to go ahead and shut it down.

I'd also just like to make the results available to the whole board, including open text answers. Now some people signed their answers and I want to make sure it is ok with people to make all of that open.

Thoughts?

Our wings are not tired.

I assume that there has not been a huge number of responses last minute? It is likely you have all the responses. My open text was not signed so I got nothin' there.

2 responses today, and I was one of them. 4 yesterday.

eta - or lesss than 4 % of total respondants, so no, not a rush.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Now I'm wondering what percentage of our users check the board less than once a week.

I'd guess that people who signed their names don't care about anonymity. But sometimes I guess wrong.

I feel positive that it is less than 2%.

This is my first ballot, so I'm not sure of the procedure. Do I post the final form of the ballot here and say "Let loose the dogs of voting"?

edit: also, I presume the No Preference rule is still in effect.

I think you post it in Lightbulbs, and then a stompy will do some magic and then post an announcement in Press. Did someone already volunteer to count votes?
