 Proposal 2: We will hold yearly elections for Kouncil seats, starting now. Historically, one member of the Kouncil has been affiliated with the team that runs the site in some form. This is currently darg's position, and as such his seat is not up for reelection.

 Why is Ghug standing for election, when he is already on the Council?

Or is re-election required? (And if so does this indicate that Darg is also stepping down?)
Post 1708, which I won't copy here.
I'm trying to decide if my feelings are hurt because this seems like Jamie, my friend, is starting a push to unseat me.

But seriously, reminder to all that this is, of course, NOT a popularity contest. If you are running, do not be hurt if you are not selected. That is all from patronizing darg, today, on this subject.
This is post 1708:

 I will say I also do not like MVP statistics and find them very arbitrary.

I’m generally on the “empower GMs to do fun stuff” side so I think we can mess with post mins/maxes and phase lengths within reason.
Forgive me if I don't think that entirely explains matters.

 Should we do a ranked vote? i.e.

1 - ghug
2 - damo
3 - Brian
4 - Chaqa
Darg is a parson, not an accountant!

The qualifications for Kouncil self nominations will stand for now. We realize that 'ever having been banned' might be excessive. It seemed to us that examining 'pardon's during an election might be disengenuous. We will figure out some fine tunings after we are fully staffed at three. Apologies to those (and there were a couple) who were desirous, and personally qualified, but unable at this time to join.

One of the differences we anticipate is less 'long term permanent' members of Kouncil... so others will have the opportunity.

Also, we are using other players to help review. So thanks to those willing to help with that.

Our nominations at this point, alphabetically, are:
chaqa
ghug
Hamilton Brian

Nominations will close wednesday, CST 5:00 pm. Elections (via message to dargo, either via the site, or discord) will conclude one week later.

Thanks for your patience, input, and involvment in the discussion.

Maybe I could step into the breach?

Unfortunately, worcej is not presently qualified to be a Kouncilor. He carries a ban, from a little while ago.

Thanks for being willing, my friend.

If anyone else wishes to step forward, please do. It is not arrogance to say,"I'd be willing to serve a while on the kouncil."

Especially with the vacation benefits...

I dropped this earlier.

We could PM our votes to Darg and trust him to tally. I'm a little hesitant to use a polling service online rather than linking to accounts.

 Very sensible Kouncil Official response.

Thanks to worcej for avoiding the default.

My ideas re election process:

Nominations to close at a specific time (say 7 days f I'm now).

Electorate - anybody having played at least one mafia game on webdip and not currently banned.

Up to two votes (one person seat) per voter. The two candidates amassing the most votes win the two seats. Ties resolved by random process if necessary. Votes by DM to darg (or some other non-canridate person nominated by darg who is agreeable). No change to vote once cast but second vote may be sent subsequent to first.

Voting period 7 days from close of nominations.
Sensible to me.

 I volunteer for the Kouncil election so that it isn't defaulted.
Kouncil could also consider having up to 5 members. Probably too big after that.

But maybe shoot for a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5?
We did that when I joined and everyone stopped giving a shit. I think small with a minimal mandate is the call and if anyone wants to be active in setup review or whatever we do that separately.
