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!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

What about repurposing Angel Spoilers as a Lost/OC spoilers thread. Or replacing Angel Spoilers with a new "general" spoilers thread. I don't read spoilers, but I know that someone will bring it up sooner or later.

Could I have written "spoilers" any more times? Spoilers spoilers spoilers.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Does a general spoilers thread work, though? I guess with a lot of whitefont it would be managable.

I had that thought, and I think it has been suggested. I have no problems with it if it's technically okay. Maybe the choice on Spoilers could be Close, Repurpose, or Keep As Is?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Or replacing Angel Spoilers with a new "general" spoilers thread.

This, I love, and I somehow couldn't come up with the one simple sentence for it. Spoilers is a great and longstanding subcommunity, but it's one that depends on having material to spoil; we haven't had that in a while, but if the interest in these shows keeps up, the hos will be back at it. (Please? Be back at it? I'm dying for spoils and I don't even watch any of these shows!)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Assuming people do vote to open the threads, what time frame are you thinking for opening them? The OC doesn't start for a few weeks yet, and I still think it is too early for a Lost thread, since we are only 4 eps in.

If we do open up spoiler threads for the new shows, I think there should be one for each show.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'd rather close and archive an ME-specific thread and open a new one. To me, it's tidier, keeping all ME together and all non-ME elsewhere. It wouldn't affect the active board, right? Since there would be the same number of threads on the "read new" list?

Our wings are not tired.

Thread closings not bunched makes more sense.

On the spoilers I always figured the Ho's were spoiled on all shows, but I can't speak to that and would be fine with more than one spoiler thread if that was preferred by the impure more thoroughly researched.

If there's a Lost thread at all, why wouldn't it be open immediately?

OC isn't really that far off and promos are beginning to appear, so I'm not sure why we'd put that off either.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I think as long as there is a proviso that Lost thread would be closed in the event of the show-cancellation (which seems highly unlikely, as it apparently ranked #9 among all programs last week), it should be reasonable to open the thread immediately if the motion passes.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have Alias spoilers.

Apropos of nothing.
