New page, new reminder there's a vote going on:
Tie not. Banjo or Banjo not, there is no tie.
(Per Rule F4, a quote with two or more votes in favor than votes against is included, otherwise the quote is excluded; there are no vote scenarios that result in a tie)FeytouchedBanana eldritch disciple avatar by...me!

“Evil is evil. Lesser, greater, middling, it's all the same. Proportions are negotiated, boundaries blurred. I'm not a pious hermit, I haven't done only good in my life. But if I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all.”

Re: The Index of the Giant's Comments V―On a Saner Forum, We Wouldn't Need this Index
OK.
- Blackwing's Explosion in #1020 is a Scroll Activation Mishap passed; 19 for, 10 against. It will be included.
All three entries are now in the Index.
Now then, on the subject of deletions....The tentative list is below. I don't really want to start a vote on the weekend, and it turns out I misunderstood people about the V's Children entry (so that one's not on the list); so if anyone has anything to add at this point, now's the time. Ideally we'll get a vote on removals started some time tomorrow.
Entries Suggested for Removal Protection from Law is Illegal in Many Places #969 12/01/2014 Durkon Throws Diamond Dust
Durkon threw diamond dust into the air in 844.#844 03/09/2012 Orrin Draketooth's Daughter
She's not Haley.#816 11/21/2011 Haley's Boots of Speed
Yes, she did get them dyed to match her brown/tan garb.#793 05/29/2011 Elan's Rapiers
He has two. His original, and one from Julio Scoundrel.#723 05/13/2010
There hasn't been much movement on the subject of codifying removal procedures, so I have to assume it's not a great concern. So as it stands, it'll be run the same way I did the last removal: Each quote will be voted on, with the same two-more-votes-in-favor threshold to keep it as they took to be included in the first place.FeytouchedBanana eldritch disciple avatar by...me!

Should we include his comments on the fake Kickstarter scam?

Re: The Index of the Giant's Comments V―On a Saner Forum, We Wouldn't Need this Index
Definitely not--it's not related to the strip or the plotlines within, and only has a tangential relationship to OotS as a whole. It's specifically the sort of thing we're not supposed to be putting in the index, therefore.

Re: The Index of the Giant's Comments V―On a Saner Forum, We Wouldn't Need this Index
Exactly. The closest aspect in the entire thing is the lack of any marketing companies being involved with the Kickstarter, which has nothing to do with the comic itself. As such, it fails to qualify under Rule B and thus isn't Index-worthy.

Re: The Index of the Giant's Comments V―On a Saner Forum, We Wouldn't Need this Index
I think it has a place in the Supporting the strip section. At least one person has given them money, presumably thinking they were helping support the strip. The Giant's tweets warn that they have no connection with him, and you won't support the strip by giving them money.

Re: The Index of the Giant's Comments V―On a Saner Forum, We Wouldn't Need this Index
While I support the idea of people not getting scammed, the Giant could have made a large news post of the main page, a stickied thread, or any number of other highly visible warnings about it. He did not. If you believe we should shoulder some responsibility to notify people of the potential for scam, you could always start a new thread for it, or sig it, but trying to shoehorn it into a thread where it doesn't belong is not the right approach, IMO.
Also, as far as my understanding, nobody has given money under the assumption that they were supporting the strip; the bait is that they will help get more exposure for the target's own kickstarter. It requires a rather large mental leap to assume that in any way would support the strip, even under the assumption that the scamming company is legit.Last edited by Peelee; 2016-03-14 at 08:19 PM.

Re: The Index of the Giant's Comments V―On a Saner Forum, We Wouldn't Need this Index
Not to break up the conversation on the applicability of Rule B, but I've got official-esque stuff to get started.
CALLING FOR CONFIRMATION VOTE ON MULTIPLE QUOTES
The inclusion of the posts below have been challenged. This vote will determine whether they remain in the Index or not.
The quotes are as follows:
- A: Protection from Law is Illegal in Many Places
- B: Durkon Throws Diamond Dust (Durkon threw diamond dust into the air in 844.)
- C: Orrin Draketooth's Daughter (She's not Haley.)
- D: Haley's Boots of Speed (Yes, she did get them dyed to match her brown/tan garb.)
- E: Elan's Rapiers (He has two. His original, and one from Julio Scoundrel.)
Since we've had confusion on this before, the vote will be for which ones to keep, rather than yes or no. Simply vote "keep" for the quotes you support keeping; you don't have to mention ones you want removed (though you can vote "remove" on them if you prefer). If youwant to make my job difficultreally don't care about particular quotes, you can vote "no opinion" on those.
You can vote individually ("Keep A, Keep C") or in a group ("Keep B, D, E"). "Keep all" is also a valid vote, as is "Remove all". ("No opinion on all" would be the same as not voting.)
- Please bold your vote, it'll make it easier for me to notice when I go through and count everything.
- The usual suggestion to avoid discussing quotes during the vote does not apply in this case.
- Per Rule F4, inclusion by vote requires a quote to have two more votes to keep than votes to remove.
Voting will be open until March 16th, 9PM EDT.FeytouchedBanana eldritch disciple avatar by...me!
