"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hmm. I dunno about that for officialness. It falls under other people's terms of service, etc., just like other backchannel.

Although, I guess, as much as pf, sure.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah -- this is the only thing under our terms. All the auxiliary services (WX too) are similarly other people's.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

The buffista community in LJ should definitely be included.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Except what is in Boxed Set. Good luck with explaining that consistently. The "this is not a general TV thread" idea is repeatedly bypassed.

Yeah, but we don't admit to that.

Oh, don't think I'm not taking notes.

But seriously, that line will need to be rewritten, and Boxed Set will probably need to be explained.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My goodness, I can't believe that I ever had enough time to devote to helping with that-- let alone the voting thing.

The buffista community in LJ should definitely be included.

Although there are people on the community who I've never seen on the board. At least one complete stranger (to me) has used it repeatedly to spam put out a call for some role-playing game being held elsewhere on LJ.

So, um. I don't know what I'm saying.

The same can happen or has happened elsewhere. The LJ community isn't much of a draw because nowt other than "Down for you too?" happens there, so no one's likely to stay. No reason strangers can't drop by WX or PF and never care to come here.

Or maybe people have followed that link here.

Swouncing

I'm not sure where to post this:

I was away from the computer since (my) Friday afternoon, and sometime between then and now the voting has began, as I saw in "Press". It would make sense that in the over-24-hours since then at least one person would vote, right? Because I got no voting e-mails, not even one. And I did get other e-mails to that account, so I can't tell if the problem is on my end or not.

I tried to vote myself, and if I'm the one who both votes and counts the votes, I should get 2 e-mails, right? One as the voter and one as the counter, right? IIRC, that's the way it's supposed to work. Well, I got the one mail, addressed to votes@buffistas.org, which I think is the voter's e-mail, not the counter one, and that's it.

So I'm awaiting Stompies help. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for all the fish.

I did vote, just to let you know.
