Also, deadlines are going to be 10:30pm EST unless somebody makes an argument for another time that won't kill me.

That's 9:30pm CST... pity it can't be half an hour later. I'm afraid I may miss deadlines because rehearsals will run long, in which case I'll have to vote four hours early.

Make an argument, eh? All right...

Blah-blah-blah a little later. Yadda-yadda wouldn't kill you. Dooby-doo just like Shasta. Sha-na-na 1 AM is perfect. Horse-with-no-name settle for less. Dino-BBQ-chips please a little later?

There! A brilliant argument if I may say so.

10:30pm is lovely because then I will neither have class or have to stay up later than necessary for deadline.

Though for Shasta's sake, if you bumped it to a half hour later, I'd be perfectly okay.

11pm's fine. Later will result in a cranky moddess due to loss of sleep. This semester's schedule of getting up obnoxiously early every day is sort of eating me.

Phantom: your memory goes back far.

To warm up my true diplomatic spirit, are you fine with a compromise of 10:45 EST?

I am, but you'll need to get the votes of your fellow villagers for the proposition to pass.

So you would have us settle for a time that does not suit any of the parts in the argument and instead use a time that suits no one. . . .

Should we not try to find the time that is best for most people, instead of seaking weak compromises that will be to the benefit of no one.

(Oh I see Phantom already spoke on the matter)

Anyways about this filibustering. . . Is it american style which means that there is no restrictions on speaking time?

Or do we have subcommittees we can make inquireries to and such?

11PM EST that is? It seems to be 6AM our time... So you should expect some early voting from the finnish representatives at least. And I do believe the British caucus will join our ranks in that electional behaviour as it will be 4AM to them... unless some of them are real hardcore politicians staying up that late - or some of us are even more serious to wake up that early...

Which is no bad thing as we Finns - among other Europeans - have largely dominated the late calls for votes in a host of games lately, so now it's time for you in the US to make the final choices like you did in Di's game! Lead us on America!
