I expect this to be the most redundant discussion ever (most heat generated will be meta--should we have talked about it), but there you go.
I am the bitch of process.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

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!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I support the idea of supporting the strike. As a group, I think we're fans of writers. I think a link or a page explaining the facts behind the strike are are a good idea. Especially for people who have heard of the strike, are wondering why their favorite shows are on reruns or not running and don't know why, exactly.
I would abide by a bullshit concensus and wouldn't mind not voting. But if a majority prefers an official vote, I think it should be an expedited process.

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 support this. And the process, even if the process this time *feels* like it'll be all of us going, "Yep, we support the writers. Do it."

I think a link or a page explaining the facts behind the strike are are a good idea.
I think this is key, in addition to the logo.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Work just tried to eat me, I'm going to be a little gray in discussion for a bit. I'm so sorry.

"I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world"
I agree that the rules are in place for a reason. I think we should vote. Obviously the writers should be supported.

Mostly lurking...
I'm for this. I'm also for getting it to a vote as quickly as possible.

Trust my rage
Someone in B'crazy mentioned opening voting now and possibly shortening the voting period. Can we consense on that?

I'm for it and would like to vote sooner rather than later.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm for voting now.
