OK, I understand now. Moving to BBaBB.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can ftp up the wazoo.
Just be careful with that, Jon.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
. Although a few Buffistas have expressed an interest in additional matches, it seems to me we should close it up unless we have another vote.
Yep. If we decide we want to do Angel, well, it's got its own topic.

Progress on FAQ:
I've been away from my computer more than I expected of late - but - I have gone through the last bajillion Bureau posts and taken note of all the FAQ suggestions. I also have a list of compiled of Buffista glossary words suggested so far and their origins and such. The actual edits to the FAQ are taking me a while - but there is progress there as well.
I will be posting them for discussion/approval in the coming days. Just didn't want anyone to think I'd given up. As for the moment - new capris at Old Navy are calling my name. Be back later.

Regarding deathmatches, I voted to close the thread, but would like now, to close it, but not archive it, keeping it in reserve for if more people are interested in deathmatching.
Is it too early to reconsider the vote's verdicts? And how serious is the thread proliferation issue, now we're on our new host. I gather the problem hasn't gone away, but don't know much more.

Not to throw another vote into gear, but I think a dedicated deathmatch thread might be something to consider (possibly down the line). I think it's popular, fun, a good group activity, reinforces our cultural glue. But it's not something I want to act on right away.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Worth thinking about, as long as deathmatches aren't limited to quotes. The poetry version of March Madness (can't remember whether it was mentioned in this thread or some other) has grabbed my imagination.
Not ready to propose any such thread, or decide how I'd vote if someone else proposed, though.
