'The Girl in Question'
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!
OH CRAP. Which reminds me. . .
1. We still need someone to count votes.
2. Do we need MVT on each item or only on the total ballot? Cause that would make a difference on giving a no preference choice.
Seriously, I don't want to debate it. I just want the facts.
My opinion, the MVT should be voters on any issue, or Buffistas participating. The NP don't count for the majority situation.
I can count again if no one else is in the queue.
1. We still need someone to count votes.
I'll do it.
proposing ballots: it's a dirty job but somebody's got to suffer for it.
Technically (from a technical radial button/html standpoint), do people have to vote on all issues?
Here are the facts from someone who wishes his brain cells were filled with something other than this knowledge:

There was a queue!
Okay, Laura, so as long as we get MVT on each issue, they don't actually count towards the total. So 50 people vote. 47 were no preference. 2 were for. 1 was against. The "for" has it?
Bless you DX!
Each ballot question is tallied separately. The MVT must be freached for each question separately for that particular questions votes to count.
No preference votes count towards the MVT
No preference votes do not count towards whether something gets a majority vote. If the tally is Yes-5, No-4, NP-50, the question passes.
I understand every one of those words. Yet my mind refuses to put them together so they make any kind of sense. I can't believe I ever partook in discussions on these matters. Need some coffee.
And, Bless you, too, Jon! Is this all really in your head, or did someone write it down somewhere?
NEAT. And to think I voted against No Preference counting for MVT. Now, it seems handy.
Wolfram, remember, you have a newborn. We'll forgive you if you don't remember the thrash. Me not remembering the result? No good reason except stress, school and gray hair.
t Tries to figure out what prompted him to volunteer to count a ballot containing 12 questions. He's not drunk. Maybe he should do something about that...
Sigh. It's in my head, but I still have Nutty's summary on my 'puter that I really will edit and post someday.
