we are in constant trouble with our service provider and 150% over on our server usage maximum
We are now at about 40% under, according to what Kristen posted here. It appears the Random Quote Generator was doing most of the damage. Unfortunately, we didn't know this until well after most of the votes were cast. (Please note that this is not to say that we should go hog wild creating new threads, just that the belt-tightening doesn't have to be quite so fervent at this point.)
Because I like the thread name, but what are we going to call it when we get to a second thread?
Boxed Set 2?

Yes, and I know that. To clarify, I was responding to askye's point that everyone got to have a say on the fate of the three threads, and my point was, it was put up for a decision at a time when all those things were going on. Regardless, Kristen is still pretty pro-consolidation.

Deserves emphasis, especially because we're in summer vacation season with no new eps and more people on vacation than at other times.
Boxed Set 2?
I meant more like a Boxed Set Season Two: What creative phrase are we going to put here? kind of thing.
I'm all pro-consolidation, too, but since we are under 40% can we smooth out the transition a little more? Like have a stated date, preferrably the Friday after the US Labor Day holiday or so, that the threads will be consolidated, and reminding people of this at least once next week?
Just an idea, not a demand.
ETA: x posty with like minds.
Regardless, Kristen is still pretty pro-consolidation.
You bet your sweet bippy, I am.
Whoo hoo. Two sweet bippies for me.
You bet your sweet bippy, I am.
I see your sweet bippy and raise you your mama.
What is a bippy? How can I make mine sweet?
So. Boxed Set (in future, Season 2, etc.): Farscape, Due South, Smallville.
Slug as Katie formalized, with only vague hinting as to the other TV fandoms that might pop up. People like it better?
(Personally, I prefer general use to specific, but I bow to the people who have used their ballots to feel strongly on the issue.)

I don't know that New Englander's
have
bippies.
