RL troubles Posted by Marta Layton November 10, 2005 - 23:04:39 Topic ID# 6235
You guys are going to get sick of hearing from me that I need a break from
the post mortem. I'm supposed to be minding it! But RL has a way of being
pesky. Something's come up that's requiring most of my energy, at least for
the next bit. I hope to get it under control so I can come back and give my
opinions on things, but that may not happen. Which means that I may be
depending on you guys to hold each other accountable to remaining civil (not
that that's been a problem yet), and if you think we're going around in
circles or need to move on, you may need to take the initiative in nudging
the group that direction. I will still be around but probably will not be as
involved as I'd like.
How does this affect the post-mortem? I want you guys to go ahead witht he
conversation. I've pretty much said my piece on most of the things being
discussed so far, and I agree with most everything that's been said. If it
looks like there's an idea that's popular that I disagree with strongly and
wouldn't be comfortable with for the awards I'll try to speak up.
I've set up some polls here and at the LJ to get peoples' opinions on the
main issues we're discussing now. Feel free to go on and discuss these
things. Hopefully by the time we wrap this topic up I'll be up to guiding
this post mortem again, at least in some form.
Cheers,
Marta

Hi Marta, don't worry about things here...we'll try to behave! Hope
your RL troubles work out.

Well, personally, I was going to stage a coup and somehow take over the world in the process. But if Inkling says we'll behave, I guess I'll have to go along. ;) Besides, world domination might be something you'd be interested in, Marta, so I'll hold off on the nefarious schemes.

P.S. Sheesh, I'm gone for a grand total of two days and the lot of you go and post a novel! *shakes head* I guess I'll try to catch up this weekend. Still, it looks to have been very productive and entertaining. I'm sorry to have missed it.
