Tara ,'Get It Done'
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!
I think we went with simple majority before.
No we haven't. Not that I can remember, anyway. Here's why it's unfair:
Sample result:
30% - Night of
29% - 24 hours
41% - 72 hours
With a "simple majority", or plurality, 72 hours wins, even though 59% of the voters wanted the period to be 24 hours or less.
Yeah, my memory doesn't go beyond the most recent vote.
Did we want to make an option for just the names of winners/those voted off as a whitefont option? I think that was mentioned in this discussion.
winners/those voted off
Contest show results?
I was the one who brought it up, and I think I was swayed by the arguments that it would be too complicated in practice.
What if no option under part 3 gets over 50% of the vote? Runoff?
PREFERENTIAL VOTING!
PREFERENTIAL VOTING!
And popcorn!
Probable final proposal:
Part one:
Do you want a non-fiction thread, which would encompass the same shows as the Experimental Non-fiction thread, namely reality television (The Amazing Race, Survivor, Top Chef), documentaries (The History Channel, The Discovery Channel), and sundry (Mythbustes, Ghost Hunters)?
yes, no
Part two:
Do you want this thread to have whitefronted discussion?
yes, no
Part three:
How long should whitefront be if there is whitefront?
24 hours, 72 hours, no preference
That looks identical to what you posted yesterday. Was that your intention?
SA? Did you mean to not have "no preference" as an option for the first two parts?
