And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'


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!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

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!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hmm. Guess that means I'd better start using the quickedit instead of specifying font color, huh?

hip deep in pie

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.

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.

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

Go preferential! Choose preferential!
