Hey, you know what this thread needs? More controvsey.
I think this could work, but I want to make sure I fully understand the proposition. It is nitpicking, but it’s always good to get the kinks out ahead of time. Most of all, I’d like to know exactly when the “On the Fence” rule goes into effect and when it expires. I’ll pose a few hypothetical situations and see how everthing works out. In order to avoid arguments on the merits of individual games, I will use fictional examples in the situations:
1. We vote in “Hello Kitty Island Adventure” for Theoretical LAN 1. It is the least attended tournament and goes on the fence. Still, we give it a second chance at Theoretical LAN 2. Miraculously, it is the most highly attended tournament. We vote it in for LAN 3, but again it comes in last. This means “Hello Kitty Island Adventure” has been put on the fence twice, but not consecutively. Would it be constitutionally sound to vote it in for LAN 4, or would we have to wait until LAN 5 for it to be a valid pick? What I am really asking is: does “on the fence” status reset if an “on the fence” game improves its attendance at the next LAN, or does it reset only after a game is made invalid for one LAN?
2. We vote in “Bible Trivia: The Game” for LAN 1. It comes in last and goes on the fence. We give it another go for LAN 2. It comes in last again. Obvously, it can’t be voted in for LAN 3. Would it still be considerable for LAN 4?
Also, if the “on the fence” rule gets approved at the next meeting, would it work retroactively, meaning would Gears and Street Fighter be on the chopping block at the next LAN or would they get two chances because the rule wasn’t in effect when the last LAN took place?

at least o’reilly’s show isn’t losing advertisers unlike his coworkersI’m guessing you’re talking about the Glenn Beck boycot. Turns out that was pretty overstated.
Here’s a similar clip with no possible political offense:
Danny Bonaduce went from “some has-been” to “my hero” in about ten seconds.

Better idea: tickle fight.
I plan on running for Secretary again. Also, I’m considering running for Wii Council Leader, but that really depends on who else is running.

I have mixed feelings about this though. I know in a very short time it will cripple the Democrat party and hurl them out of power for at least a decade or two but the cost of that would be halting the medical research programs and reverting medical care back to 1930s standards. As good as those pros sound they just don’t outweigh the cons.I kinda sorta agree with this, but I don’t think the Democrats will be damaged for a decade. These cycles happen very quickly. Four years ago, all the pundits were talking about “the collapse of the Democrat party.” Four years later, it’s the Republicans who are in trouble. I think the Democrats are about to hit tough times, but they will recover within a few years.
I don’t think there even was a Valley Ballyhoo last year. I’m not heartbroken by this. It would be good for us to advertise the first meeting, though. Also, I have a few general fliers left over from last semester, so maybe I’ll post those up during the first few weeks.

Man, I love this pic.
I couldn’t help but notice a complete lack of Incredible Machine. I take issue with this.
I’m really not all that worried, because I doubt anything will get passed this year. Public support for ObamaCare is sinking so fast that any politician who supports it runs a major risk of getting torn apart by the voters. My prediction is that an extremely watered down version of the bill will pass next year. In the mean time, Obama will continue to look like a dope in front of the nation as he tries in vain to explain how his nonsensical proposal is supposed to work. It is strange how such a well-spoken politician turns into a bumbling mess when he has to describe his own plan.
Wow. Roseanne Bar actually found a way to be less likeable.
