I just want to let the Canadians know that I support them 100%. Which is only about 80% in American support.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think you could make a three in one proposal-- although the "Who we are" discussion should probably happen. I just don't think we'll ever agree. we're basically here to discuss what we're here to discuss.

I like the idea of a Who are We and What is this place discussion, but I also think it may send me screaming for the hills. We are different things to almost everyone here. Change is a comin and it ain't gonna be pretty.

My main concern is, where does it stop? Are we going to have a Matrix thread? An Alias thread? A mystery book thread?

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
I like the idea of an alias thread

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
Where do you think limitations should be set, Jesse? I think the same thing, grateful as I am for the LotR thread.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't see any simple justification for, say, an Alias thread and not a TAR thread, or a Coupling thread, or whatever. They all seem out of scope to me, despite what's been grandfathered in.
Shows by ex-ME people, different, though. But how "by" is "by"? Writes for? Show runs? Created?

joking aside, I think we are once again at the question of what is a critical mass. I would hate to see a ton of ballots about this, but maybe one ballot with many of the thread options.
