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!
Have you expressed this sentiment before, and I just missed it?
Well, I'm not running around trying to harsh everyone's mellow about it. But it's a pretty consistent loss that I feel, and I'm still mad about how the whole thing went down.
That still counts as not revisiting, right? I just want to make sure that silence isn't taken as assent.
Of course. I think that happens in real life too, when you're in a big large group. You talk to the people you know.
I talk to the people who mention penguins. I have simple needs. And four penguin-themed board games. WON'T SOMEBODY THINK OF THE PENGUINS?!? Um. Other than me.

I only meant that I don't want to spend this discussion period on rehashing the SPN discussion, because I'd rather focus on the proposed new thread or non-thread -- but apologies to anyone who thought I was trying to shut anything down.

Absolutely. Or, what amych said.
And what Juliana said. mainly I don't see the point of going there in this discussion.

That's a good thing. I am all for this.

Maybe we should revisit this topic, elsewhere, and possibly at some other time. Maybe in Boxed Set?
Which way do I have to vote to find out what four penguin-themed board games billytea has?
billytea, I thought of you and penguins today since they were on the cover of one of my competitor's film books that I received today.
I generally don't agree with the anti-proliferation stance, but I usually get where it's coming from when you are talking about removing a conversation from a current thread. But this isn't doing that. So I'm sort of at a loss to understand the logic. Not that there has to be logic I guess. But I wish I better understood the arguments against creating this thread.
Which way do I have to vote to find out what four penguin-themed board games billytea has?
Preferentially.
megan, does it help any I explain that it isn't this thread in particular so much as the precedent its creation would set?
And I am still not sure why the conversation can't just happen as things stand. I mean, the baseball lovers talk about their geeky passion anywhere and any old time, and that to me is closer to talking games than cooking is.
