nobody above 500 post anymore thing.
I'd prefer not to do this one, but I'm terribly biased about that.

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!

No other candidate is asking the hard questions, like "Did geophysicists assassinate Jim Henson?" or "Why is there hydrogen in America's water supply?" --defective yeti
I think I'd even be willing to try the evens post on M/W/F and odds post on T/Th/S/S
Or, say, evens post on PeoplesForum M/W/F, odds post on buffistas.org M/W/F, and so on. That could work. I can't entertain "nobody above 500 can post" as anything more than a hypothetical, however. This board has no second-class citizens.

I wasn't serious about voting people off.
Well, I figured. But then I actually thought about the ramifications for a second and imagined us running up the threads until we hit Voting Discussion 666: We're Trimming the Fat AIFS! and then the server went out in a fiery blaze of vitriol.

And it probably would take all of about a week to get there.

Well, of course not. It also has no first-class or third-class citizens. Or any citizens. Cause it's a posting board and not a sovereign nation.
But I get your point.
Okay, back to consolidating. . .
Firefly stuff? Two or Three?
Quotable threads? Necessary or Not?

HA! I think you forget we only have four days to debate. I was expecting that around Hour 19.
Firefly stuff? Two or Three?
I say two. Actually, I would even say none and roll them up with the Smallville and Farscapes of this board but I don't think that would fly. [No pun intended.]

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Have the UKers seen all of the Firefly episodes at this point? If so, I would vote for consolidating the spoiler and main thread. If not, consolidate them when they have seen them all.
I love the quotable threads, and hope we get a chance to keep Buffy open long enough to finish the death matches, but the Board is more important, so I guess I'd say close and archive them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The threads were separate because they've seen them all, Perkins, not until.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That's true. I was thinking that now that the major discussion of unaired episodes had passed, maybe we wouldn't need both, but I guess that wouldn't work. Maybe we could consolidate them when the DVDs come out.

Thanks for all the fish.
We haven't had the quote of the day going long enough to determine if it makes a huge difference to - ah, whatever it is that's going wrong. Maybe that's enough to fix things for the board?
Maybe?
Please?
