Oversight Committee Vote

Alright, since the Oversight Committee initiative seems like it's going to whither on the vine again over in the other thread, I guess we have no choice but to try and formalize the thing through another poll.

The current nominees for the committee are:

• Cerulean the Blue (chairman)
• Shiningted
• Allyx
• Lord_Spike
• Cujo
• Kalshane
• Gaear
• Old Book

Please vote for one option. If you select option 3, please write-in your nominee(s) in a post in this thread.

Majority rules will apply to this vote. In other words, if the results are 100 - 99 for, there will be a committee.

This poll will last for 7 days and expire on January 31, 2007 (unless you live in tomorrow like Ted and Cujo ).

If this initiative passes, we can then move on to by-laws or whateverTF would come next.

 

Indeed. I've always rather thought of Ag as 'Mr. Circle of Eight' anyway, Supreme Commander, whatever you want to call it, and the rest of us as his lieutenants. Whether or not he's officially on our little committe won't change that. He can always disable us with a telepathic frontal lobe attack if we piss him off.

Cappy, as you must know, there's already a 3 page thread where we've beaten on each other discussing these very things. I suppose we can start that up again here if we have to, but I'd like the vote itself to remain the primary focus.

Speaking of which, who are the wiseguys who've voted 'some other lineup' but then not posted what it should be? Should we take that to mean 'any lineup other than the one proposed' ? :scratchhe

 

Thank god that question's answered. I figured it was the secret underground Co8 society that's nefariously plotting to take over our, um, takeover attempt. :biggergri

Okay, I guess I'm game. But I insist that from now on the committee be formally referred to as The Value-Added Impact Committee. :icon_chuc

Our hope is that it would be a good thing.

According to Blue's testimony for one, it is needed, because essentially at present he alone serves as the committee, and he doesn't feel that's appropriate. And yes, it is neccesary to have some type of method whereby new mods are determined to be suitable or unsuitable for the Co8 modpack.

Specifically, the committee would decide upon the suitability of all newly submitted mods for inclusion in the official mod pack. It would 'work better' because Blue would no longer be the sole defacto arbiter of mod-goodness, and there would actually be some system in place whereby that determination is made and a formal body takes responsibility for it. As for enhancement, perhaps we could provide performance-enhancing steroids to the GP? elvicthr (Damn, why did Sol kill all those spambots?!)

One thing at a time there, good captain! :hug:

 

Okay, the poll has expired and it looks like the membership is in favor of an oversight committee by a margin of 21-3-3. Strange there were so few votes.

So I hereby declare the Oversight Committee (aka Value Added Impact Committee, aka VAICOM) to be in effect.

The Committee:

Cerulean the Blue
Shiningted
Allyx
Lord_Spike
Cujo
Kalshane
Gaear
Old Book

FURTHER AFFIANT SAYETH NOT. _O:

 

I prefer the Value & Impact Adding Game Research Association.

It can be chaired by Cerulean the Blue (pill).
