PC Voting Start Time

Postby Sheeo » 05 Jun 2018, 11:02

We're still sorting out technical issues regarding voting for the position of player councillor.

This forum post will be updated immediately with a link when it's ready, and we will update you on the usual news outlets.

The end time of the voting period will be extended s.t. there will be 10 full days in total for the player base to place their ballots.


I apologize for the waiting time.


Regards,
Sheeo

Thx for the info but i won't vote this time because of the last disappointing experience.

I only have one question to all candidates: Will you make the job longer than a few month? (RL issues are excused of course)
If you fear the dark you have never seen what light can cause!

That's not how democracy works, voice your opinion regardless of what the outcome is, or don't ask questions you want answered on top if you dont want to participate anyway.

Enjoy living in your fantasy world; this a gaming community, not some actual government with laws to back it up.

I do ask that everyone at the least voice their disdain so the council actually knows they made a big mistake not ejecting a member with so little motivation.

Shoo. We honor the rules we've set up for ourselves.

Unfortunately, we do not have PM history in slack, but I'm pretty confident the only time I was contacted about the issue was about a week prior to the councilor choosing to step down by himself, and only by a very small amount of people. If it had gone on longer and people had actually complained, action would've been taken.

Yes, most definitely.

We're still working on some quirks but voting should be ready to go very soon. I'm sorry for the delay.

The quirk is the voting system. That’s probably the major issue.

Just delete it and put in the candidate that you as people that don’t play the game feel will represent the community of the game.

Technical stuff. The API needs an update to support the voting app, which is happening asap.
