It's time to prep for November's BVWSC!

In October, Narcisse eaked out a very narrow win against Stirlings Oro Valley.

@walden@sub.wetshaving.social โ€“ who proposed Oro Valley โ€“ would be open to repropose it for November.

Therefore the question: Can we forgo the normal voting procedure, and use Oro Valley by acclamation?

Aye or Nay?

If the Nays win, I will open a soap proposal thread, as usual.

Hi, I received my smush today, thanks!

[โ€“] DaveWave94 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Aye.

Oro Valley is based on Tom Ford Ombrรฉ Leather AFAIK, which is perfect for the colder months ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

[โ€“] djundjila@wetshaving.social 3 points 1 month ago

That's right

So, I guess the ayes have it?

@walden@sub.wetshaving.social , I don't know whether @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social is still interested, and I'm not 100% sure about @enndeegee@sub.wetshaving.social, but otherwise, it's the same group as before.

Do you need the addresses of some people?

[โ€“] walden 4 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Yes, I'll need addresses from just about everyone.

What's the timing of this again? There's about 1.5 months to go, right?

[โ€“] PorkButtsNTaters666 4 points 1 month ago

Reached out on matrix

[โ€“] PorkButtsNTaters666 4 points 1 month ago

Third Wedesday is the 20th of November.

If you have matrix configured, I'll forward you the adresses this way - I 'elieve that at this stage, we can presume consent ๐Ÿ˜Ž

[โ€“] sahenders 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have a tub of Oro Valley, so let me know if I can help with individuals in Europe.

[โ€“] walden 3 points 1 month ago

Thanks for the offer! I have a bunch of international stamps so it shouldn't be a problem. I'll definitely leave you out, though!

[โ€“] enndeegee 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm game.

My other one arrived too so I just jeed to remember to shave on the right day AND post about it. Man that's going to be hard

[โ€“] PorkButtsNTaters666 3 points 1 month ago

Great! I'll post a reminder a few days before the event. See you then!
