Good idea, Sophia. I didn't know any of that until talk began in B'crazy.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

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!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I figured that, because I am one of the SPN watchers, posters and flailers, I would say what *I* want before we open up voting...
Item: Do you want Supernatural to have its own thread?I do.
I would not have said so before this conversation began and that's not the stance I came with into Lightbulbs.
But, as the conversations have progressed over several days and I have thought a lot about it, I want a dedicated single-show Supernatural thread.
Boxed Set is where Supernatural belonged in the past, but things change. It doesn't fit there comfortably now. So I want a new thread at the end of this conversation and the voting. One where I can watch new eps, talk about the show, and propose dvd or rerun watch and posts without feeling like I am stepping on toes and crowding other conversations out.
A lot of feelings, very much including mine, have been hurt in the past several days and over the past several months even, but this isn't me trying to flounce away or just leave Boxed Set. It's just not the place for Supernatural any longer, to me.
The hurt feelings, we'll all get over them. We'll move on.
And I know that I feel terrible that AmyLiz feels bad for proposing this. Don't. It needed to be proposed. The masses of posts and feelings expressed show that it really was time for it to happen. And, Frankenbuddha, don't feel bad for posting something that started this round of conversations. Don't. Like I said, it was inevitable and I am not upset now that you brought it up.
So, as someone who cares a whole lot about how this vote ends? I want a new thread. I am anti-proliferation and everything, but I want this one.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm following the redhead.
No, wait--

What is even happening?
Thanks for saying something, because I had no idea how to vote on this one.

No, wait--Hey, I'm a redhead. Not naturally *this* *exact* red, but I was bored.
Thanks for saying something, because I had no idea how to vote on this one.I just ... really changed my mind over the course of this conversation and wanted to be clear about what I was thinking now. I really want this thread and it feels like the right thing too.

Here's what I'm adding to the ballot, re: our rules. Comments are welcome.
Please note the following Buffista Bylaws of Balloting. They may affect the way you vote:
- If a ballot receives at least 42 total votes of Yes, No or No Preference, then the resultant decision must stand and cannot be brought up again to another vote for at least six months. If a ballot does not receive at least this 42 vote quorum, then the proposal fails.
- In order to pass, a ballot must receive over 50% of the sum of Yes and No votes. No preference votes do not count towards this sum. For example, if the final results of a ballot were Yes:7, No:6, No Preference: 30, then the proposal would pass. If the final results were Yes:30, No:2, No Preference:9, the proposal would fail.

I'm with the pretty lady with all the candles. I agree that it's time for a SPN thread.

Lucky you!
And, yes, thanks for posting, Cass and others - helps to know where people have ended up in their thinking.
