Questions 5 and 8 are the repurposing of Previously and Spoilers as Angel threads. Do we want to close the old thread, and start a new thread for each to reflect this?

My opinion:

• No need to close and reopen a new Spoilers, since it's always been Angel inclusive and I assume that there are already lots of discussions about Angel going on there already.

• we should probably close Previously and open a new "Previously on Angel" since that's more of a shift in purpose, but I could go either way.

A slug change for the Previously seems enough in my opinion. Same with Spoilers.

I think you only change the slug in Spoilers and start a whole nother thread for Previously. Mostly because of archiving. Otherwise it would look like there was never a Previously Buffy thread.

I think slug changes on both would be sufficient.

I'd say just change the slugs on both as well.

I just wanted to thank all the folks who hammered out the ballot, put it together, counted, and are going to do all the archiving/changing/consolodating. Y'all rock the party.

DX, you da man.

I agree with the slug changes, on both accounts.

Thanks, kat, for phrasing my thoughts for me.

OK, now for the Calendar issues I saw mentioned earlier (the one thread I catch-up on skimlessly is Bureaucracy. I didn't post here earlier this week because I didn't have any access - the whole university network was down for nearly 3 days):

However, and to the point, I'm sorry if my birthday/anniversary/ascension announcements caused problems to the board, and I'm happy to post/avoid posting/change posting in whatever way seems best for the board.

I have a list of the e-mails of all the Buffistas who sent their dates to me, I'm always saying that I'm not going to announce anything unless it's sent to me, so the only dates that are included there are of people who specifically asked to be, and I'm very glad to read that at least some people believe I have a secret lair.

For the record, the only times I post Calendar announcements in "Beep Me" are when I'm supposed to be gone for a relatively substantial amount of time (longer than 2-3 weekend days).

The way you're doing it now seems good to this buckaroo, Nilly.

[Edit: and notice she in no way denies the secret lair]

DX, THANK YOU! I cannot express enough gratitude for all of your countage.

I'm with Jon and Heather. Change the slug for the spoiler thread because that's always been Angel inclusive.

Close Previously on Buffy to make it easier for archival searches (otherwise it will look like there was a never a Previously on Buffy) and open a Previously on Angel.
