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!
I would add: Temporary edit to the Minearverse slug saying "Strike talk lives here!"
I'm all for the ideas presented here, whichever ones we wind up implementing. I'm also for direct support of the strikers, as I've driven by them several times, and was already thinking about actually putting in some time on the picket lines in some way. I'm glad to see a web site offering ways to do that, and to coordinate efforts.
I'm going to make a proposal once the vote finishes on this for an addition to our processes. I'm still mulling exactly what I'll be proposing, but basically the intention will be summarized as "Buffistas are not Ents".
But we are! We totally are!
Does that make you Quickbeam?
Well, I see this as a totally appropriate way of going about things. Yes, in this particular case it does appear that we are all pretty much thinking alike, however, I really don't like the idea of setting a precedent where we can derail our carefully put together voting process.
I also support the writers and hope that they get what they are asking for and that this gets resolved. However, I've also got a lot of friends who are now out of work who aren't writers, and who never get part of the back end. I know that it's not the writers that are causing this, it's the producers, but it's still tough to watch a lot of folks who are below the line basically losing their jobs.
Did not mean to derail the discussion now. Will bring it up at an appropriate time.
So, when are we voting?
Thanks Allyson.
A vague disclaimer yada yada friends cakes. Have fun!
