Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

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!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Do we have a votecounter?

And can someone remind the feeble-memoried (me) when the vote starts?

Ta muchly. E-mail address is pointed in the correct direction, Allyson's exact wording used ...

Skimming back through the last discussion, it looks like there was some debate on when the voting starts. The discussion opened May 23, 2003 10:08:18 am EDT which means voting isn't starting before May 27, 2003 10:08:18 am EDT, right? And that tradition has it going up at midnight EDT, which would be end of day Tuesday ... am I consistent and sense-making?

You're consistent and sense making. But the tradition is not; it started as an example of an easily demonstrable 72 hour period that got co-opted into tradition. I think as long as we've had 4 full days of discussion, and as long as the voting runs 3 full days, making midnight as the start and end points isn't a necessity.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think the problem is that Jon isn't around to put up the voting HTML page on Tuesday? I am not sure...

The putting up is no problem. That I can do.

Okay. So at a convenient point tomorrow (which may very well turn out to be midnight EDT anyway), I'll slam that sucker up.

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

And if ita can't do it for some reason, Jon sent me the template, too, so I could do it.

Just for the record (I'm still catching up), if there's ever a need in future votes for a votecounter, I'd love to help.

Ann, that's a ferret.

at the convenience of the sexiest Stompy.

You know, this sort of thing caused the Trojan War.

Will the emails have votes@buffistas.org in the header? I want to set up a filter for my email.
