Reminder that the nomination deadline is tonight!

I'm also drafting the final voting announcment+procedure post. My current thinking is just PM all the ballots to T-Bone to get counted. I figure publicly posting ballots isn't the best to avoid someone hurt over getting consistently ranked last, but if people want that public post option or want the final anonymized ballots publicly posted let me know. Public ballots are no longer strictly necessary now that the modteam is involved IMO.

If T-Bone wants help counting he can pass them to me with the names of the submitters removed and just doublecheck that it's not flagrantly fraudulent.

I have the voting post drafted. When the deadline expires, I'll leave it to Lukewarm to put together the final list of nominees in case he got any PMs declining a nomination, and then plug them into the draft to send off to T-Bone.

For the people who didn't confirm or deny interest, I'm not too sure what to do. Some of them aren't very active onsite at the moment, so I'd probably just leave them in until they decline, giving them ~2 days after the election to explicitly accept if selected. I'll leave it up to the modteam whether or not to stick to a hard 2 year guideline and pre-emptively remove nominees with a ban history (eg. Menalque, ND39)

I just updated post 117.

At this point, we have heard back from most of the people nominated. Only two people who have not publicly or privately responded to their nomination. I am going to shoot a last try pm to the people I have not heard from.

Sorry, posted in wrong thread.

Sent the draft off to T-Bone using the final nominee list from Lukewarm. Disclaimer that my voting procedure isn't perfect so sorry in advance, not trying to write an entire constitution, hopefully it works out fine. Note that nominees are eligible to vote and whether and where you rank yourself is up to you. I'd recommend ranking yourself first as a sign of enthusiasm and to avoid getting rekt trying to be humble.

When the thread goes up and voting officially opens I will PM everyone who posted in either thread as a reminder to vote.

I'm honoured and privileged, but I must decline the nomination. I'll do my part by sending the representative supportive postcards to keep morale high.

Hi, mafia championship organizer here!!! I'm officially (and personally!!)

very

hyped to see a representative from Mafiascum playing in the championship this year!!!!

For what it's worth, you don't

have

to be familiar with MU to participate, as lots of reps have not played on MU before participating!! I'd say being sure you're comfortable playing within the EoD deadlines is more important, as our longest available qualifier is a 72/24!!!

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions!!

I'll give T-Bone one more day. If the thread doesn't go up I'll post it myself and we'll revert to public ballot/PM myself with T-Bone cc'd.

Well, it's been three days so I'm going to go ahead and move forward without the moderator team. While T-Bone probably had the best of intentions in volunteering to vote count and is just busy elsewhere, I can't say it really helps my previous charge that the modteam has been negligent & borderline saboteurs from start to finish.

I'll try to send out PMs to everyone later tonight if I have the time.
