Kevin Standlee: Fandom Is My Way of Life

Because the WSFS rules are made at (surprise!) the WSFS meetings. By real people who show up and do the work.

I don't see why this is so difficult for you to understand.

I wish I had time to promote Range Voting, be a musician, and keep my full-time job, AND manage my relationship with my girlfriend. But clearly I can only have so many hobbies. The point I'm trying to make, as I keep explaining again and again, is that there's good reason for YOU to want to show up at those meetings and get this system, because YOU will be the one benefiting. WE would benefit a little, by having another organization we could point to and say, "Hey, these cool people who do the Hugo awards use Range Voting!" But YOU would be the ones benefiting a lot more.

The argument of, "I can't be bothered to show up in person to try and convince the people who do," alas, does not grow tiresome. It's been that way for years.

I can give you more than sufficient evidence of RV's benefits right here. Then YOU can show up and DEMAND Range Voting, because YOU will see better results with it. Do it out of pure selfishness. Do it for yourself.
