Elections 2004 - Time to Vote

LN2 · Post by **LN2** » Tue Feb 10, 2004 2:28 am

Given you made then "or"s, I disagree with #3...cuz someone could have joined 3 years ago submitted maybe 1-2 scores 2.5 years ago....and hasn't been around since. They shouldn't get to vote...cuz they are out of touch with MARP.

I agree with the others though....plus perhaps 6 months minimum membership...which was stated above...member since at least August 1, 2003.

I think half the editors aren't even eligible to vote given the above checklist...cuz they haven't submitted any scores in December and January.

Yeah Pat... a little crazy, I can agree with that.

But I agree with LN2... you should have to participate - so it should be (20 INPS OR 20 POSTS) AND 6 MONTHS.

So you have to qualify for ONE of the first two, AND the third.

I should mention, Pat, that the editors have to do what I mentioned before - nullify the election and change the rules - except you need 2/3 of the editors instead of 2/3 of the general public.

Pete, your last inp submission is

20 Oct 02 -mspacpls , description being; "Just in case I decide to vote..."

...Ehrm!

I'm sure editors can get agreement on the rules. 2/3 is pretty harsh though. Maybe that rule should be dropped too, it's very stupid in a clear 50-50 case of banning a cheat etc.

I'm still missing the list of editors to vote for.

I have three votes so far - I have replied to all three, signifying wheater it was a legal vote or not.

I hope there's more than three people qualified... otherwise, maybe I should take a vote to nullify this election...

This can't be unexpected.

These elections are being held two months late and almost no one complained. I mentioned it in passing in the forums and no one responded, and Buttermaker has brought it up in #marp.

In a sense I guess this can be looked at in a positive light - people are happy enough with the way things are.

Also, bear in mind that there is still a week left. I haven't even gotten around to voting yet.

I think we should accept the results from however few people care enough to vote. Plenty are eligible.

Anyway, what if nobody votes on that?

Can you please address Buttermaker's request within three days? I know - not a lot of time - but he should have ample time to vote if you're going to give him the right to vote.

Thanks.

Buttermaker:

Sorry, I did not see your request until know. No idea how I could miss it as I have read this thread 2 times..

You are 100% ok for me to have the right to vote. I´m sure that the other editors will agree with me.

Thank God Zwaxy's scripts make MARP run pretty much automatically.

Looks like I can't vote.

I don't know.

Two editors have voted that you can, none have voted (openly) that you can't. Does that count as a majority if the other five have abstained?

Submit a ballot to Gameboy9, see if he accepts it.

You're probably half my body of voters.
