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!

If a vote counter is still needed, I'll volunteer.

Revised Proposal:
October will be our official pimp-n-post phase for the coming year's F2F. During each October, people may propose a location in the appropriate region of the country based on our normal rotation, pimp its fine qualities, research possible venues for hotel rooms/prom (preferably the same venue for both or within walking distance), and suggest up to two possible dates in spring/summer for our official annual F2F. The date(s) for each location are completely up to the pimp-er's discretion.
At the beginning of November, we will vote on the proposed location/date combo. If the pimp-er offered more than one possible date, we will hold a second vote to pick a final date for the winner. Once the date and venue has been set, the pimp-er will book the hotel so we can begin the process of raising the necessary money and making necessary investments in tickets, corsets, and sparkly tiaras.
Since we have already missed this deadline for the 2011 F2F, we will do pimpage in November and vote at the beginning of December this year.

Least contentious proposal ever, or simply least interesting? Heh.

Nope. I totally think it's great.

As currently written, not contentious, but should we add any qualifiers? What if people do not step up to pimp in that time frame? Will any and all proposals go to a vote?

Hm, good question. I would think that we can only vote on what is proposed during that month, and if no one proposes anything, interest isn't high enough to warrant an official F2F. Maybe we should add the provision that ever pimp must have a second-in-command/fallback person?
