Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

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!

Our wings are not tired.

So before midnight we decide on the method of voting on a choice of 6,4 or 3 months. I suppose I can suck and skim for empassioned arguments for each time period and the method of deciding same. I don't really have to read almost 1200 messages to get the major points, right?

How about we decide each time we have a vote how long before we discuss it again? BWAHAHAHAHA

Sixists, Threeps and Fourmongers. Why can't we all get along?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I still don't see anyone really against doing an instant runoff (i.e. prfffmmmmng), so I went ahead and coded up a ballot. It's a dummy ballot. The "Send" button won't work until midnight. Comments on content?

Yeah, maybe put at the bottom a feedback question. Did you understand this ballot yes/no/don't care?

Yes/No isn't very useful. If folks have questions, they can ask about it here or in Bureaucracy.

It's the talking about it we're trying to avoid. I thought maybe an informal survey of how many people the PV really squicks might be a good idea and very easy to do.

In fact, why not put an informal survey rider on other ballots too. How many Buffistas are lefties/righties? How many Buffistas eat rice with a spoon/fork? Etc. It could make this process a little more fun.

In other words, I think it's fine.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

It is lovely Jon.

I suppose that I am the one staying up and posting the link?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah, sorry, no way I can stay up. Any West Coasters?

I am so fond of this idea. Really.

I usually vote in the first couple minutes, but since I missed 6 days of discussion I will probably be voting on day 3. I feel so out of the loop. I am so far behind I am downloading last week's Angel that I forgot about. Yikes.
