I think that last year we waited for the results to see if there was a clear winner, and when there wasn't, I ran the numbers through a Borda count and it came up with two or three options almost tied, so we voted on those.
(I don't remember how the ballot is set up this year, but last year there was a "Which is your first choice?" "Which is your second choice?" and so on, with each choice listed under each question, and Borda count means that, with four options, each first choice vote counts for four points, each second choice for three, and so on, and the one with the most points wins. We also had a question about which dates people couldn't make it, and subtracted points for each of those.)
I can look at the numbers and see what they show once they're in, but I think that, in the past, what's worked best is that, if there's one option that's well ahead of the rest, we go with that, but if there are several options that look like they have pretty close to the same number of votes, we have a runoff.
Works for me, Hil. This survey asks for the top three choices and then asks which dates people couldn't come (that question was unlimited).
I can email her, Kristin! I just didn't know if she was checking email while she was away.
this. also exhaustion and why do I keep working for lunatics? I'm sorry I suck at pimping. Philly's great - y'all come. That's what I've got so far. Will work on it.
Kristin, can you tell who voted? If so, did I vote on final dates?
Jury duty has me questioning everything.
ION, we did not finish deliberating today. Le sigh.
If Denver is considered mid, I'm willing to take what we learn here and start pimping after this F2F. (Nicole, Stephanie - wanna help?)
Kristin, can you tell who voted?
Nope. It's all completely anonymous. Sorry!
Suz, I answered you in email so as not to clog the current year F2F conversation.
Amy, Nanita will email you info tomorrow night.
Okay. I emailed her last night, but didn't she didn't reply.
She doesn't have email until tomorrow. She texted me and tried to text you but apparently had the wrong number. She asked me to let you know.
