Soraya Xel The Corporate Raiders Top Men. 1022	Posted - 2014.01.09 19:31:00 - [1] - Quote Glad to hear progress is being made. I do hope we get a CPM0 member in CPM1, though in general, it'll be nice to have fresh blood, with no offense intended to any of the current CPM. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate

If CCP is going to champion this as an election, then it doesn't make much sense that they would be pushing certain people for the spots. Not saying there is anything wrong with that, in fact it really makes more sense (to avoid popularity contests), but if that is the case then you can't really call this an election. CCP isn't going to recommend people run, but CPM can. And while CCP isn't going to endorse candidates, the CPM can. Does not one commonly see candidates in elections seeking endorsements from former presidents and other political figures? I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate

Don't call it an election then Is not the President elected while the previous President is in office? Does not the President generally endorse a candidate they think would be a good successor to them? Also... CPM... ruling party? Not really, no. EDIT: Also note that the CPM0 was originally intended solely to help draft the manner of electing CPM. So in actuality, this is CCP and the CPM0 finally actually what was intended. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate
Soraya Xel The Corporate Raiders Top Men. 1023	Posted - 2014.01.09 20:45:00 - [4] - Quote DUST Fiend wrote: "Election" implies an informed voter base I prefer "popularity contest" What's the plan to stop people from just voting with all their alts? Will there be some kind of timer on accounts that tracks if we've been active all month or something? Some people have 10's if not 100's of alts. Then the goal of any interested party, whether a candidate or not, should be to get as much information about candidates as possible. Surveys and comparisons and such. (I know I've voted for CSM more than once based on the results of such a site.) As well as encouraging as many as possible to vote. Non-forum players probably have not even heard of most of the "celebrity players" and vote based on the facts, so the goal should be to reach as many of those players as possible, and convince them that their votes count.

They're not proposing that they strictly choose their successors. Incase you missed this part: "Just a heads up that we had a meeting this morning with CCP peeps and among other things we spoke about both CPM candidate eligibility and voter eligibility." The CPM0's entire job was to help CCP determine how to run CPM elections. They weren't even supposed to be doing other CPM-y things, but the fact that the game sucked kinda intervened and delayed things. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate

Hopefully, CCP will utilize the in-game update section to it's full potential to announce the election and encourage people to vote. As players, we're limited in what we can access, so we have in-game mail and chat. Corp CEOs and Directors should mail their corps and alliances and encourage them to vote. If you're chatting in local chat with people, encourage them to vote. Use the communication tools CCP has given us to get people looking at the election and considering who they'll vote for.

My belief is that the current CPM0 should hold a constitutional convention, and write one. The CPM are player reps, not a ruling body. The CPM isn't "steering the game". They're consulting from a player perspective. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate
Soraya Xel The Corporate Raiders Top Men. 1032	Posted - 2014.01.10 04:36:00 - [8] - Quote With any hope, CCP is offering the Wright-STV system for this, meaning you'll be able to vote for multiple candidates in the order of your preference. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate
