Language nitpick: IIRC, it should be "fewer" than 42, not less than. Votes are discrete, countable things.

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

You're right. That is a nitpick.

Whereas voters? Some aren't even discreet.

Do we have anything in the Text? NUUUTTTTYYYYY!!!!
Hey. No, we never discussed this, that I could find. I am happy with Betsy's assertion that if this vote in particular does not get a minimum voter turnout, she (for one) will not try it again. And anyway, it's the sort of proposal that is only useful the once; the whole issue will be 100% moot by September.
(Anything to get it done, right?)

Nutty's document is a work of art. I hope to get the draft posted somewhere by the end of the week.

Laura, did you get my vote?

Yes I did Lyra Jane. Actually, if no one else votes we have exactly 42 at the moment. That is all I am saying.

Procedural Question:
If/when the WB starts running promos for the fall season, will the contents of those promos be treated the same as end-of-episode promos, and be classed as NAFDA discussion-acceptable?

I would say that if it airs as a promo on the network then it's fair game. No reason to treat it differently from other promos, IMO.
