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@sub.wetshaving.social 4 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

[โ€“] PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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@sub.wetshaving.social 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?

Reached out on matrix

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

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

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@sub.wetshaving.social 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

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