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!
The reason I say a day is exactly because there is so much television that's going to be on in the next six weeks.
See, this would be exactly the reason that I would want a bit more time. With this much TV going on I'm going to be doing a decent amount of it on a few days lag via Tivo. I'm free enough right now that I won't be too far behind, but when the shows are hitting quickly I can't watch them all at once.
I could put the days to a vote, I suppose. I was hoping to keep the ballot simple, but it's no big.
I think Dana's point is important to remember. Various threads have various white font/black font rules. So...let the thread proposal dictate that.
I get the feeling that we're not going to have an FX bucket thread now, but if we did the Premium people would probably put out the proposal and they could set the terms.
Also, it's good to compromise. It's good to be flexible.
For the sake of experiment we could have different threads with different white font and spoiler policies.
That's basically what we have now anyway and it seems to work.
You can do that right now at css.buffistas.net.
Really? You made the change to the "s" quickedit? Let's check! Why, yes you did! Cool!
Hmm. Guess that means I'd better start using the quickedit instead of specifying font color, huh?

Can't we go with a plurality as opposed to a run off?
What's our rule? I can't even remember, and didn't want to hunt up the cheesebutt, again.
I think cable & network drama should be combined. It seems like an artificial distinction to me.
What's our rule?
There is none. It's up to the proposer to decide how to handle multi-choice ballot questions. I would strongly encourage a runoff, however. Decisions by plurality can have wacky consequences.
