Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!  

We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Not yet. Still thinking about it.

At this point we might as well have the ballot, unless you want to remove it for strategic purposes, which is not the vibe I'm getting. Let's moratorium this issue and lay to rest the Burrell theory once and for all!

I agree with Wolfram. Also, I'm curious to see if it gets more support from the voting population than the vocal posting population.

Well-- if we want to see that I think someone needs to cobble together a pro/con to be posted so non-voting thread reading Buffistas don't see the proposal and think it is a great idea without realizing it solves little to nothing becuase of logistical issues.

Sophia, I really disagree. I am sorry if we have voters that may not take the time to read the discussion about the issues, but we haven't added pros and cons to any of the other ballots and to do so on this one really seems to be leading the vote in one direction. It doesn't feel right to me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We did it last time, with a general agreement that it was a good idea.

last vote was my ballot - there were not pros and cons.

Well, we did it some time, anyway!

I think we did it on the last ballot that I did with a general note that it would be a good idea for those people who couldn't wade through the whole discussion.

I had added it to my "short version of how to do a vote". So, I think it was more a case of forgetting to do it in the last vote than it being a new thing in this one.
