In the latest Fray, Joss answered the letters (rather than whoever had been answering them), and he said that he Jossed himself on Fray canon with the whole multiple Slayers thing.
Sometimes, I think about Joss jossing, and then I do a joss by myself.

See? He's just a fic-writer with a better budget. He's got the same problems we do. At least, that's what I tell myself in the middle of the night when I glare at the script transcripts that contradict a plot point I wrote two years ago.
connie - I'm a professional fanwanker. What's your corner?
See, it's been established for a while now that while Willow is Large With The Power, she's NSM with the Thinking Shit Through Beforehand.
Seems a bit harsh. The spell was Buffy's idea, not Willow's.
There's also the possibility that the Slayer power isn't so much a set charge of power passed from one girl to another as an alteration that allows the Chosen One to constantly draw magical power from the ether and enhance her physical abilities. That take on it would explain why Kendra and Faith didn't negatively impact Buffy's might.

Plus, the world was ending. It's do this spell or let evil win. Don't be hating on Willow!
I've never been a big Willow fan. She brings out my inner bully and I want to stuff her in a locker every time I see her.
There. I've said it. That was so freeing.
It might not necessarily apply to this spell, but Willow has earned her 'not-thinking-things-through' stripes. How anyone can spend three months planning to bring someone back from the dead, and not once consider the possibility that they might not be in a hell dimension...
Anyway, very interesting takes on what's happened to the Slayer power.
I didn't like dorky Season 1-3 Willow. When she hooked up with a girl, she got a lot more interesting to me :) By the end of the series, I loved her.
Love early Willow and would be obliged to tie Allyson's hair into a bulgy knot and hang her from a coat rack if she tried to stuff Willow into a locker.
