I thought Betsy was going to propose grandpappy, but she I think she has been busy.
Don't know what to tell you-- maybe we should wait a few for betsy?
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

I think we should put a limit on how long we wait for the Grandpappy proposal, say until Sunday, and then if it's not proposed Allyson can move forward on her proposal on Monday. Though didn't I hear news that Wonder Falls is now a midseason replacement? Does that change the proposal at all, Allyson?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
We could just go with an A Buffista Who Gets a Show Gets A Thread proposal without waiting, yes?

If Wonder Falls isn't mid-season (or if that doesn't matter) - could/would Betsy design the grandpappy section of the ballot and Allyson design the Tim thread section on the same ballot? We could just make them independent items.
Perhaps the real question is, would people prefer to vote more often on fewer issues, or less frequently, with diverse issues up for a vote at the same time? Me, I'd rather vote less frequently, but I don't care enough to argue. It's just a thought.

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

I'm leaving for vacation for four days starting Sunday. Does this mean this vote would take place in that time? Because it's one issue I feel I would like to vote on.
As for the other thread issue, I'm not especially concerned over missing a vote. I'll entrust myself to the will of the buffistas.

She may be waiting for Nutty or someone to post what were, exactly, the decisions made prior to voting so that we'd know what was being grandfathered. I believe that was supposed to happen this week.

Allyson, I was just thinking about this myself.
First let me say I'm really sorry. I was something of an ass with my obsitinance that we should finish previous business before we brought up the Minear thread.
But seeing as how the previous business is being delayed for various reasons, I say we should go ahead start in on Tim's thread.
If we're not ready to move forward on the business we're waiting on, I don't see any reason why we shouldn't move forward on business that's ready to go.
I don't know about anybody else, but I say Allyson posts her thread proposal and we open up lightbulb ASAP.
