Topic 5 - Bunfight byes

[Enzo the Magnificent]

Currently a GB proposal that hasn't made the grade in the bunfight gets an automatic bye into the next year's bunfight (unless it was on a bye already in which case it has to start from scratch).

 

That worked well for this year, with just 7 byes.  Under the same policy, next year we would have 13 byes, which is enough for a whole bunfight on its own!

 

Proposals are:

• No byes.  Any GB that doesn't make the grade starts from scratch in the next year.
• The five GBs below the cutoff point get a bye into the next year
• All GBs which are within five votes of the cutoff get a bye
• Maintain the status quo - all GBs get an automatic bye (unless they are already on a bye)
