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 did! But, you know, hi, Frank!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anyway, I don't think this discussion is really about Boxed Set, is it? Is there likely to be a proposal for voting that affects it?

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

Jesse, Boxed Set is explicitly called out with other threads:

Rethinking the structure and/or continued existence of the following bucket threads: Boxed Set, Cable Drama, Comedy, Procedurals, and Premium Cable.

omnis, I do know I can tweak my spoiler font/background. I've yet to find a combo that makes it easy and not tiring to read what I want and not see what I don't want.

Oh, never mind, then. In my head, this was about closing the smaller threads!

This whole discussion has been enlightening to me because I have never ventured into Boxed Set. Somehow my mental image of that discussion completely does not match what apprently is discussed there. No, I hadn't read the headers, just gone by the name of the thread which would never lead me to think of SFF type, current, tv shows.

I'm not megan, I think discussing how we structure what goes where so that it is more intuitive is a worthy discussion.

Well, if they were closed, it might mean less confusion about where things go since there would be fewer options. I put Boxed Set in there because I think it's part of the larger discussion. As I stated upfront, I wouldn't suggest closing it.

Is there a but missing in that sentence?

Natter? And...? Are there other options here that I'm not seeing? (Note: it's very possible that I'm dense, so...)

Actually, meant to start the sentence with a "While".

An equally valid lifestyle choice.

Boxed Set. Or any other bucket that remained, such as Procedurals.

ETA: To use an example of a show I've seen, if we decided to close Premium Cable, it would be more obvious that Flight of the Conchords would go in Comedy. Or vice versa.

Trust my rage

I find our current TV watching thread (lack of) system confusing. However, I have no suggestions on how to fix it or make it simpler.
