Definitely, thank you connie.
I think Bureau-blah-blah is defintely the place to have a "where do we go from here" discussion. It's pretty much it's raison d'etre, isn't it?
Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

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.
I think the real thing is to have this Who Are We discussion that seems to have arrived one way or another, but the question then become "how, when and where will we have this discussion."
Yeah, that's actually what I meant by needing a poll taken. A "how do you want to do this thing with the tv watching" poll. To get a more concrete idea of what everyone does want.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Thank you Connie, for agreeing to this, and I think going with the date you picked is right and fitting, at least to me.
I don't think the break was so people would change their minds. Just a breather so moods wouldn't be as raw. Anything constructive the decision would bring about will be better if people aren't still stinging about the last similar-but-not-similar vote.
Like SA, I will just point upwards.

Can there be singing?
Sorry, I always go to a OMWF place at the phrase "where do we go from here" anymore.

That's at least partly why I use that phrase when "future of the board" discussions come up. Call me a traditionalist.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
and now Spike is saying, "bugger this" in my head.

And soon there'll be kissing. Awesome.
I'm all for breaks and discussions.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Sorry, I misinterpreted myself for a poll--at first I was thinking a poll to decide how long to table discussion, with added parts for when discussion is re-opened, how long it should take place, but it should have only been the second part but not the first. Either way August 11 is fine with me, though I do think there out to be a poll to set parameters of the upcoming discussion.
Now I feel like I'm chasing my own tail. I would imagine it's far cuter when Ruthven does it.

Forgive the Natter to note that SA's tail is quite cute.
