We have a winner: You and I (Must Die) by House of Mammoth! ~Halloween and All Saints Day may have helped prepare the terrain for this one…~
Anyways: Congratulations to @[email protected], who is on a run with his second consecutive win – will he be able to secure the hat-trick?
Here are the results of the wetshaving jury:

First off, thanks for organising these every time. Your efforts have my utmost respect and none of what follows is meant to be a personal critique. It’s all meant in good faith.
I have to issue a few minor complaints:
- we should wait until every member who wants to participate has voted (walden doesn’t mind this time, but I imagine it might be very disappointing if he indeed did want to vote); alternatively have a clear deadline to do so
- we probably should have a rule in place what happens when someone doesn’t rank every soap. We had more than ever before this time, so I see how some people couldn’t be bothered - but I personally think they deserve at least some token vote points
- likewise, we might need to limit nominations to one soap per member. As you said, there’s always next month to suggest another one.
These are just minor issues, but I guess like every club we need to follow at least a bare minimum of rules. BVWSC has been really great so far and I find it charming how open and inviting our Lemmy community is.
Perhaps those are only personal issues though; I am of course open to discussion with other members and receptive for constructive feedback. Cheers & have a nice evening ✌🏻
Yeah, these are valid complaints.
Next time, I will announce before how much time ther is or voting, maybe something like 48 h?
Also, I’ll check how different ways of counting votes interact with partial votes.
I will put up a thread for discussion soon.
Thanks!
I personally think 48 hours would be enough for everyone to make their choice in a timely manner.
Maybe something like 2 token points for every unranked soap would be okay. I think this wouldn’t mess with the general voting consensus, of course depending on how many soaps are suggested.
That’s a great idea with a discussion thread! I am sure we’d find a good consensus based on democratic decision making. Thanks again for coming up with the idea of BVWSC 👍🏻
Oh cool. I didn’t even have a chance to vote though!
Sorry - I didn’t even check 😩
Ifyou want to go ahead and vote, please do so, and I will adjust the results, if necessary
No that’s ok. I saw it last night and was too tired to think about it!
This tub was free from Ben, so it’s a perfect winner.
👍
Next time, I should probably announce the deadline
Yeah definitely. @[email protected] do you have matrix set up?
You should be able to go to his profile page, and there should be a øatrix link.
Ah, yes I see it now. Thanks. It wasn’t showing up in my mobile client.

Let me know if you’d like a smush of Pine Tar, I’d be happy to send one along.
Thanks for your kind offer! Maybe we could trade samples? I’d gladly try Pine Tar. Would you like one of Stirling’s Texas on Fire ?
Yes, I’d love to try Texas on Fire! It’s one I’ve had my eye on for a bit.
Want to send me your address on Matrix?
I’m unfortunately not familiar with Matrix. Is that an app? Messenger? I usually only used the private message feature in my Lemmy app of choice, but if you could direct me I’d gladly set up an account 👍🏻
It’s another protocol for secure decentralized communication. Also offers e2e encryption.
I use Element as a client, but there are others.
Ah, cool! Thanks! I actually saw Element as an app in my F-Droid client, but wasn’t sure what it was. Looks very nice! I downloaded the app now and will set up an account tomorrow ✌🏻
