'Dirty Girls'


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!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And do we need 50% or just a plurality on the three-choice questions?

I think the white font question should be in two parts. First yes or no, and then if yes wins for how long.

That will address Jesse's issue as well.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

My Name is Earl

I am obviously an enthusiastic watcher. Revised proposal:

YES, NO, NP

24 hour whitefont, 72 hour whitefont, NP

2: Comedy thread.

YES, NO, NP

2a: Should the Comedy thread be only for network comedy programs (The Office, How I Met Your Mother, My Name is Earl) or for all comedy programs (including Comedy Central programs)?

Network Comedy, All Comedy, NP

2b: Should there be whitefont in this thread?

YES, NO

2c: If "yes" passes in 2b, what should the whitefont policy be?

Add in NP for the whitefont question and I think it's perfect.

Yeah, Jon, if you could add NP to the whitefont question too, please.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Sorry, I was away from my 'puter. I might not get to this until tomorrow morning.

No problem at all.

The Press announcement is up:

Voting Has Begun!

And with that, I close this thread.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Aimee has proposed the following:

I propose that we close the dedicated Firefly thread and continue our discussions in the Minearverse thread.

As someone who couldn't stand Firefly, but does follow Tim's career, I'm naturally against the proposal, so I want to ask:

Do Serenity and the much-hoped-for-and-constantly-debated sequel really relate to Tim?
