Okay, I didn't know there was a real proposal floating around on grandfathering. Never mind me.
But can I be obnoxious and ask why an all Tim, all the time thread? One of the things I've always liked about this place is that we discuss shows, not personalities -- we've never had an Alyson Hannigan or Marti Noxon thread. I appreciate that Tim posting here makes it a special case, but wouldn't a Wonder Falls thread also honor him and be more in keeping with our pattern?
There's a six month moratorium on stuff we've already decided, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away? What does that mean? Someone can propose that we rename the Phoenix, "Allyson's Diner?"
Oy. I'm going to get a piece of paper signed by too many people. And then I'm going to have some tea.
And I think a multi-item ballot would be excellent.
Also agreeing to a multi-item ballot.

This is basically my position, but I'll wait until we get to actual discussion to expand.
I don't care which one we do first, but I'd rather not see them grouped together since they're really not related.
Not meaning to shut you out, Lyra Jane, but I think that your concerns should go in lightbulbs when it opens, since the proposal received all of its secondsies.
Nutty, ita, I'm cool with whichever way people want to do things, I suppose. I'm leaning more towards ita's opinion, because it's easier to focus on one thing at a time.

LJ, no offense, but that question should wait for discussion. Allyson's gotten the four seconds and to debate the proposal's appropriateness here is contrary to the purpose of the discussion thread.
ETA: total xpost with brenda and allyson

I don't think any of us need to go there. This way lies madness and despair.

Agreed -- I just didn't want to lose my thought! I'll copy and paste into lightbulb when the time comes.

I'm already there. I'm Worst Case Scenario Gurl. What's the Worst Case Scenario? Can we live that? It's where I'm at, mentally, all the time. What's the worst thing that can happen if we make this decision?
To me, if all of our decisions turn to pumpkins at midnight, it's anarchy. Hey, where's Victor?
