SerenityDay: Change the Date? VOTE NOW by Hera

Actually, the Serenity Summer Campaign plan is...

June 23rd: Support SN/EN, jolly merrymaking, start of campaign (busybusybusy)
September 30th: Buying Frenzy to top it off with a bang.
All kinds of conventions, recruiting, shindigs and spreading the word inbetween.

The original plan for Serenity Day was to focus on ONE day to make a noticable impact. Your plan is to, well, not really do anything together. Rally the troops to occasionally buy a DVD on their own?
Apart from that, that plan that has been up for ages on www.browncoatsrising.com.
So of course it's totally okay if you buy DVDs every day and give to the poor - more power to you - but we want an event.

I hope you don't read this the wrong way, I come in peace.

Serenity Summer Campaign for teh win!1!!

BROWNCOATS UNITE!
Serenity Day on September 30th for maximum sexual pleasure!

Sorry about that! I've revised the tally and you've been ensconced nice and comfy with the September 30th clan, which I am more than happy to do.

That's the benefit of having a count that contains peoples' names, it offers the chance to double check the count, and have the results be very visible to all. Beware the mystery counts...

I do feel bad for Kaele. She stepped up as leader. She was given support and then had the rug pulled out from under her. Ouch. I imagine she feels betrayed by this pseudo-mutiny.

Yeah, well, since Kaele seems nowhere to be found,
and September 30th has won the vote here, anyways, why don't we just declare that

SEPTEMBER 30TH IS SERENITY DAY.

I mean, we're fighting and argueing for days, and there is no leadership, no, but a VOTE IN FAVOR OF SEPTEMBER 30TH, so what the hell are we waiting for?

And I mean it.

I, Agatsu, newbie, declare that the will of the Browncoats after this vote is for Serenity Day to be held on September 30th.

So there.
If anyone objects, speak up now, if not, let's get going. I still don't wanna lead this thing, but seeing that we're floating in the black, SOMEONE has to "make something official".
Bash me, flame me, slash me, maim me, but for as long as nobody more capable comes along (who won't be hard to find, and and I'll gladly pass the torch).
I don't wanna take over this thing, I just want it ruttin' DONE already.

I'll post the same thing in a new thread. This one is getting a mite long, anyways. Please respond to this at

Yes, she did step up, Succatash, and was doing a fine job until she ignored her counsel begging her to not use the 23rd and to come up with a different plan involving the 30th. I still have hopes that she will see the light regarding the plan re: the 30th and do that.

As one of the original inner circle I take exception with what you are saying. You don't know what happened internally with this.

This thread was started by someone not affiliated with that inner circle.. who was however aware of the original points for using the 30th instead. That person was just attempting on their own I surmise to throw this out to a vote for all the folk.

Since when is it considered mutiny if someone wants to know what all the folks think?

I believe there is just honest voting going on here. Hell, it seems to be finished. Now if we had honest vote counting by the authorities we'd have some consensus.

We're all Browncoats and we shouldn't accuse each other of things that aren't true. IMHO.

You're all for the freedom of the speech of the Browncoat community, then let it be done.

For my part, my posts to Kaele were to call her on statements she made that were obviously incorrect. Her count of the vote here was also drastically skewed to favor her own choice.

A good leader seeks consensus. Because to achieve success for the type of campaign being planned depends on the majority of fans agreeing. There was a serious schism developing which had to be resolved, or the plan would have been crippled from the start. That's why this thread was started, to take a vote and decide how best to proceed.

The actions of a leader have to be held to a higher level because what they do affects many other people. My posts to Mary never asked her to step down. They were made because she was changing and "bending" facts, making statements that were disturbing to a lot more people than just me, and was ignoring the majority of the people speaking up.

Maybe you have a different philosophy about leaders? Should they never be questioned? Should their personal preferences prevail over the majority of people? Is the person who steps in to lead be given automatic immunity just because they stepped in to lead?

You're expressing sympathy, which is laudable. But maybe there's a good reason why people are questioning kaele's leadership choices. This does need to be resolved in order to move forward... this thread wouldn't exist unless people felt they weren't being heard and the plan needed changing.

True or not, that's painful. That's rejection. That sucks. Therefore I feel bad for Kaele. I am trying to put myself in her shoes, I imagine she's been hurt and is pissed off right now.

As for my mutiny comment, FollowMal, do you know what "pseudo" means?

Thanks for weighing in, gossi.

Here's a question. If we do manage to get the word out and spread the love for September 30th, are you in and willing to back us up?

The way I see it, Serenity Day can't have too many events, as long as the focus is all on Serenity.

Kaele stood up to take leadership over many.
When someone takes the mantle of a leader, they know that what they do will be questioned, that's a given.. they should be prepared to do what is best for the many...and to stand up to questioning in regards to the decisions they make regarding the good of the many.

I understand what you're saying, I really do. My hope was that my posts would convince Kaele to listen to the majority of the voices here.

My intention was not to oust her as leader. I hoped she would let go of her personal agenda, and listen to the majority of the fans here. I called her on some of her comments because, as a leader, it's very important for her to be more forthright, and stop bending reality to fit what she personally wants to do. One of my personal pet peeves is seeing someone abuse a position of trust and authority.

Bumping the thread for folks who hadn't yet seen the Serenity Day vote results.

_______________________________________________________________

For the sake of honesty and respecting the voices of the people who voted, below is an overview of the votes on this thread.

PLEASE NOTE: Many of the people voting for a specific "Serenity Day" still expressed an interest in having a Summer long campaign, starting with June 23rd and concluding on September 30th.

However...

The main goal of this particular thread and vote was to pick which date would be the big DVD buying push, and be called "Serenity Day"... so that's where the emphasis of this voting compilation has been placed.

_______________________________________________________________

JUNE 23rd (16 Votes)

SEPTEMBER 30th (35 Votes)

SWING VOTES - (Either Day/Double Day) (4 Votes)

BOTH - (No specific mention of which day to designate "Serenity Day") (3 Votes)

MISCELLANEOUS (5)

11th, I can't explain my vote count other than I used only the first post by people. I blame it on pregnant chads. (worked for bush1 and bush2, didn't it? LOL)

Official word from me:

I am not angry nor am I holding any grudges. As I told one volunteer today, we must all do what we think is right. I fully expected some sort of backlash. I had also hoped it wouldn't happen, but sometimes it is unavoidable. People in power are targets and anyone who isn't prepared for that shouldn't be in a position of power.

No matter what occurs and no matter what is said I AM reading and listening. Just because I am not posting every hour does not mean I don't see it.

I weigh everything that is said, wether it was phrased respectfully or not. Not everyone has a way with words, but everyone does have a point of view.

Thank you all for your advice.

Hey Kaele,

Thanks for the official word on how hard it is to be leader, and some other rhetoric. Now how about some official word on what you've been doing these last few days and what your position on the whole matter is?

Because if you tell me now that June 23rd is adamant, after you only counted the first few posts of the voting thread and ignored the council's vote for September 30th before that, we're gonna have a problem.

Yeah, drastically miscounting votes is a real knee slapper! Woooohoooo! I remember the first G.W. Bush election and what a laugh riot that vote count was!

Personally, I find it rather unsettling that you, as the leader of this campaign, would brush off such a big descrepency in her vote count so casually. Those were people expressing their feelings. That deserves more consideration than an election joke and an LOL.

But the votes don't matter to you anyway do they? I mean even after you saw the correct count it still didn't have any affect on your plans.

However, you have got to make this decision now. Don't wait through the weekend or through next week. Call it and do whatever it is we're gonna do. Troops are waiting for marching orders.

Kaele - if you want to lead, get off your duff and answer the questions.

11th hour - love the outfit- if you want to lead = LEAD.

Succotash, if you don't want Kaele - why don't YOU lead?

Stop calling each other names, making catty remarks and generally NOT DOING anything.

I don't have an EXACT count, because quite frankly this is beginning to bore the hell out of me, but just today there are roughly 350 postings in various threads about this crap.

Everyone - Please -grow the hell up and make a decision. This is really getting depressing, there is no one on the boards, and if this thing doesn't get off the ground it is because you all can not act like adults and work together.

You are starting to damage my calm.

I would really really love to have
One summer.

I had conceded when I thought the official notice was stated to keep status quo. My preference would be the 30th., ample time to promote and gear up thru the summer... recruit and spread the word..

Sorry about that! I've revised the tally and you are now hangin' out with the September 30th crew.

When I tallied the votes I tried to use the latest post from each person, and when I saw your post that "saluted" Kaele I interpreted that as a yes for the 23rd... which was a little confusing because your earlier post stated a vote for the 30th.

I do want the count to be as accurate as possible, so I appreciate your message... thanks for clearing that up.

11th Hour

P.S.
Per their request, the following folks have been added to the tally:

1ToSmile
Mikamom
nosadseven
LadyShelley
Gelassenheit

Thanks for adding your voices!

I'll post this here and on the 11th Hour thread.

Haken has spoken. He has given 11th Hour permission to take charge in official activities on behalf of Fireflyfans.net.

Succatash: Would you be willing to let 11th Hour be in charge of FFF-related fan events like charities and activities, etc. in the name of Fireflyfans.net? So, when she organizes Firefly/Serenity events she can put an official FFF logo and represent your website?

Haken: Sure. And have her email me so that we can discuss what I can do to help her along.

11th Hour, you have been called.

So, where the hell is Kaele?
She sees all, reads all (except for anything exceeding 4 posts, lollololhilarious), ignores all.
My guess is she's going through with June23rd (better not get involved with the majority who's against that!) and currently will be quite busy making sure that she gets her way. You know, she'll come here and say "September 30th? NONSENSE! Look what I prepared! The press has been informed! Websites have been informed! Posters have been printed! It's sooooooo too late to change the date, sorry guys! If you call it off now, we'll all look like total idiots because of something I have done! All hail ME!"
I'm tellin' ya, it's gonna happen.

If she's got so much happening in her life right now, why is she volunteering to lead this big ass project in the first place?

Serenity Summer Campaign for teh win!1!!

BROWNCOATS UNITE!

So we say - yeah she did all this great work and we were so enthused we decided to extend it

I would really really love to have
One summer.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.
Or even one GORRAM Serenity day
If everyone would make up their minds.

And a bunch of Rings that make Shiny people do silly things!(it seems like there are a whole lot of ONE rings makin' everybody crazy!

Starting June 23rd, we aim to misbehave! Or we would if we weren't all carping at each other and unable to make a single damn decision

I am sorry, did I say that OUT LOUD

Haha! Limericks! coolbeans! And funny you should mention "Gore". Applicable! Okay, here goes:

Y'all remember that infamous vote?
It's Mr. Gore I'd like to quote.
He was being real terse,
But it's true for any 'verse:
