This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

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.

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

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?

PUt in a line for No Preference to count towards the quorum. I remember some talk about taking that out but nothing settled.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Including No Preference as an option or not is up to you, connie.
