Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

Site Administration

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!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I think three months is just right. (Note: I'm not sure this will remain my opinion, but I'll spin it out a little.) It's the half-life of the board. If, at this point, we had discussed a single issue two times, for a week each, that seems OK. My birthday was three months ago, and that was forever ago! Time FLIES.

Also? Shit doesn't HAVE to be revisited.

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."

3 Months. It's a more natural division of time.

Clarification: 3 months should be on the ballot, vs. 4 months. My previous post should not be read as an endorsement of the "3 Months" party. Equally, this post should not be read as an endorsement of the "6 Months" party.

All posts should be read as an endorsement of "Monkey".

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Tom-- I sort of agree with you about the forming of the ballot with the campaigning-- except if we didn't do this, we would never get to voting. Please believe me on this!

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

Don't get me started.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

The closed discussion period should be:

1) 6 hours
2) 6 months
3) 6 monkeys

That's the problem. You let monkeys onto the ballot and suddenly everybody goes monkey-crazy!

Oh, they're so cute! Oh, they're so helpful! Oh, they're so funny!

Before you know it, the board has been renamed "Monkey", all the threads are called "Monkey", everybody has to post under Monkey-related names, like "Monkey-Luvva" and we're only allowed to discuss Mutant Enemy shows that have monkeys in them.

Well, I say that monkeys are just a bunch of poop flinging trouble makers.
