And when you say majority.... :P

But Feather invited people to let him know if they had other parameters in mind that he would then add to the options.

When I say majority, I mean whichever majority is agreed as per the other conversation - unless it's an email ballot, in which case, I'm agreeing with DG that that should just be a straightforward majority, regardless of the margin.

Well, it's not been up long I s'pose.

As it is an exploratory inquisitive poll, its not extensive. It therefore doesnt have an option i would vote for, so i aint voting innit. Maybe others dont see an option they can back either too or summat...

Edit, i am mixing my polls up too :D that said, my views on percentage and consensus mean that there isnt an option i can back in this poll either

Why does the medium by which votes are cast alter the required majority? :conf:

May I direct your attention, sir, to the first paragraph of #21.

It may be exploratory, but it's worth making the most of it, don't you think?

Because when a poll's open on here, it might go unnoticed by members who aren't logging on at present, due to, say, other commitments.

If it's emailed out, every single member gets to know about it, so if they care about the outcome, they can make their preferences known and be included in the decision making.

Cheers Dubs - I like being addressed as, "Young lady". It helps me to pretend I'm young, and a lady. :P

I don't feel the need to be consulted on every last detail, such as what colour pants Feather should wear, for example. Though, I will say, he does look good in blue. Goes with his eyes.

Yeah I'd say 1 week to 2 weeks.

lol well, I'd be happy with 7,8,9,10,11,12,13 or 14 days and any fractional amount in between :p

If the 'consensus view' (chuckles) was 7 days I'd be hapy to go along with it.
I'd go along with 9 and 3/4 too :)

Any objections to 9 3/4 days? State your case now...you have 9 3/4 days to do so.
