This vote was conducted by a neutral third party member of UKVoting. UKVoting is a group of independent votetakers who count votes on CFVs in the uk hierarchy. The rules under which this vote is taken are posted regularly to uk.net.news.announce or can be found at the following URL: ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/usenet/news-info/news.answers/uk/voting The UKVoting web pages can be found at http://www.cirra.com/ukvoting/ There is a five day discussion period after these results are posted to uk.net.news.announce. Allegations of irregularity should be sent to control@usenet.org.uk. ====================================================================== Summary: uk.media.tv.buffy-v-slayer Buffy the Vampire Slayer Rationale: Buffy the Vampire Slayer is popular both in the USA and, increasingly, in the UK. The alt.tv.buffy-v-slayer group is becoming more and more packed with postings including "spoiler space" to avoid revealing US plot lines to those who have not yet seen a particular show (i.e. those in the UK) and so a forum for discussion of episodes that have already screened in the UK would save worrying over whether the next posting viewed is going to ruin an entire years worth of plot development. Charter: "In every generation there is a chosen one. She alone will stand against the vampires, the demons and the forces of darkness. She is the Slayer." Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a fantasy/horror series from the USA that follows the adventures of Buffy Summers, a high school girl who has found herself in the role of slayer of vampires. This newsgroup is for the discussion of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer but being UK based, discussion of episodes not yet screened in the UK is discouraged but not banned provided the nature of the posted content is indicated in the subject header. Relevant advertising (i.e. advertisements not cross-posted to numerous unrelated groups) is acceptable so long as these postings are kept short (under 10 lines). The subject line should include "AD" or "ADVERT" to indicate this content. All posts must be in plain text with the exception of PGP signatures. HTML and other types of formatted text are not permitted. No binaries are permitted but references to relevant downloadable resources are acceptable. The newsgroup will not be moderated. - - - ----- Proponent Craig Lucas (craig.lucas@virgin.net) - - - ----- ====================================================================== Brian Jones on behalf of UKvoting -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBNkGpUWOfGXkh8vHZAQHpIgP+O810u3fdDgmvXbMEE8axA8mMU4WRpGup Twsy+j9NG/WzM/D09ezlYjcI8+5wgdfqN1doyBILJRHKpmuVZ5q0mdZMxJp9TFPq 9jOa8pA03UHBpNGNUJQ7J1XdUi78+dh/OMvxH/0nHqxfH+S204MX/2Yucqsh5cGy c8vKtQ0khI8= =aATu -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
