The accusations come from Judge refusing to be social with the other candidates and then refusing to answer questions in his announcement thread (while waiting for this application), during which time he has become the only CPM candidate to have been entirely DENOUNCED by Fox gaden, someone who has spent the better part of 6 months writing up on the candidates on their background and strengths, while also outlining anything he believes that the candidate can improve on.
Quote:Fox Gaden wrote: Ok, you have lost my vote. I would have pegged you as one of my top picks for CPM, but the last thing I want is a member on the Council who canGÇÖt work with others and who will just be disruptive and cause drama.
If you canGÇÖt form close working relationships with the people who want to be part of the CPM before the elections, do you really expect us to believe that you will be able to work with them after the election?
When his Q+A thread does come around, he almost instantly refuses to answer one of the first batches of questions that were asked, saying that it wasn't asked in a good enough format, Xel replied saying "If you think its a bad format then you can change the format of it, i wont mind if you do"
At which point judge accuses xel of being aggressive, even though it was judge that was refusing to answer the questions
Arkena askes similar questions to Xel, but formatted, Judge replies to these

I am happy for anyone to read Sorayas' post on page 1 and my replies and decide for themselves what they feel about the conversation. Lets not get sidetracked away from the very real issues that face the CPM and the workload the people on it will face. And lets not judge anyone based on a single post. Lets not forget IWS has posted many posts that he has been attacked for, yet many he has been praised for.
If you do not feel I have, in the first three posts in this thread, or any of my videos; given you enough information to gain insight to the manner in which I can pass on my thoughts and interact with others, then use this space to ask something that you feel would help you make that decision.

Hey Judge, i could have asked this in gang but as this is a transparent process, thought best to ask here in the daylight.
What do you see being the biggest issue of CPM in terms of its credibility?
In the opinion of many, CPM0 did a great job but lacked the 'edge' to deal with CCP in a very robust way. CCP even stated they found it hard to 'find time' to deal as well as they should have with the CPM who were keen and eager individuals, wanting to make this game better.
How do you see that level of communication taking place given CCP is a professional business and sometimes targets take priority? can you be the 'bad guy' who will have to be slightly difficult in the interests of representing the player base (those who elect you to ask the difficult questions?)
my fear is that we will again have a group of people who are a bit scared of making a fuss and will let CCP slide once more on targets and objectives given their office is only at the pleasure of CCP and is able to be terminated at any time.
How do you plan to walk that tight rope? |

CPM credibility is directly tied to its accountability. The CPM cannot be held accountable for its actions of those actions are ill defined and there is no advance criteria for success published. A credible institution needs a way for its stake holders, the players in this case, to assess how well they are performing the duties they have been assigned.
CPM 0 did not have any of this. They should have had a contract with the players, stating clearly what their targets where and when they intended to reach them. Then when they succeeded or failed, the players could judge them on how well they performed. This accountable performance, if they met their targets, would have solidified their credibility.
On the CPM I would ensure that our goals were regularly published to the players. I would tell them what we are doing to meet those goals and if we fail telling them that we did. CPM0 treated us to a deafening silence for weeks or months at a time, and when finally we heard something it was a simple GÇ£we canGÇÖt talk about itGÇ¥
That was unacceptable. I will not tolerate that from CPM 1. Not one single member can dismiss with a simple one liner the results of a months work. Yes the NDA limits you, but it absolutely does not silence you. There is nothing NDA breaking to state that you arranged 5 meetings this week with CCP Rouge and he cancelled all five.
I am a project management professional. I am more than aware that a business such as CCP has its own internal procedures. We must comply with those procedures if we want to be taken seriously. CCP are not sitting by their phones hoping we will call. They are busy professionals. They have deadlines to meet and a long list of things that need doing. We need to work within the procedures CCP have to ensure clear and compliant work flow.
No matter how good the communication, or how keen CCPs developers and the CPM are to do something, sometimes there is conflict. Watch my videos and you will hear me challenge CCP directly. You will hear me use words like unacceptable, broken, unfair and fix it. I have challenged them for a year now, and I will not stop on the CPM.
I am used to fighting for others, and taking a stance. Look back at my campaign and you will see that I am not one to just accept what is offered. I do not just comply because it is easy or popular. My job, in real life is often to fire myself. Something I have done several times. There comes a point in a project when you have to sit with the sponsor and tell him to shut down the project. As the project manager, I am asking him to make me lose my job. We do this as the project may no longer be profitable or viable. I will not compromise myself or the DUST project solely to keep myself in a position I value. I run teams of up to 50 staff. I am not used to sitting back and keeping a low profile.
I will not be on the CPM for my gain. If fact what have I to gain? I do not have a corp or alliance whose agenda I can push. I do not have a stake in any one role. I do not need the publicity as I already have a you tube channel. I hope to be on the CPM to make dust better. If that means making a stand, then I will.

Judge,
Do you have a channel for folks to squad with you and simply just talk to you to get to know you? Would you perhaps consider coming on the Biomassed podcast and chatting?
You provide very detailed examinations of specific areas of concern you uncover during your game play and do that as thoroughly and articulately as anyone I've seen. That's a huge plus and not to be discounted.
My concern is that you honestly do seem very reticent to communicate with folks when you don't control the tempo of the conversation or medium. I've been actively seeking out all of the CPM candidates to engage not only on the forums but in-game or on Skype (slightly more dynamic than forum posts) to actually get to know them.
As a player, I am keenly interested in knowing the type of person that may be representing me and my interests to CCP for Dust and Legion. I've actually changed my thoughts, positively and negatively, on candidates after getting the opportunity to interact with them and engage them.
I, and probably others, would probably like to engage you before deciding if you are on my ballot or not.

Now that I have been officially accepted I have joined the CPM 1 Candidates channel in game. I am always in 1st Airborne, the pilot channel I founded as well. People have always been able to reach me via my channel and my youtube channel to talk with me. I also do be best to respond to any in game email i get.
I have always been open to talk with players and have been doing so in special squads for months. I traditionaly use my name in the squad finder squad name so that I can be found easily.
I would be happy to discuss, and i really would prefer voice to do that, a podcast based conversation. An in-game squad up between the two of us for a chat would be suitable to discuss the details.

I have seen your question. It covers an area that I have not done a good job of talking about so far. It also happens to be something of a big issue for me. Would It be okay If it took some time to come up with a more comprehensive answer than I might If i answered this right now?
As as side note the first time my, then Swedish wife, offered me liquorice and I took a big handful I REALLY wish she had warned me first.

I think this is a key point and worthy of discussion here - the simple fact is that CPM0 had many different handlers with very differing levels of communication skills - this led to the fact that CPM0 was disregarded for quite some lengths of time by CCP
My fear is that the wrong set of candidates will give CCP carte blanche to treat us the community with even more disregard and when the all important legion discussions come around, i want someone with a spine to back us. so grats for that.
A follow up question - as a project professional, as you state, you must understand that each and every resource in a firm has a 'usable time limit' what would be your actions when / if you felt CPM1 had run its course? would you stand up and call for its disbandment?

To clarify; my being a project professional is a fact, and was stated as such because of its truth. I try very hard to be clear and inclusive with the terms and issues that effect a topic. I mention it because I think it is something that would add value to my CPM membership and for no other reason.
Would I call for it to be disbanded? as I posted here, before your question was asked, I have already stated that if the CPM exists, and I am on it and I feel, or the community feel it does not represent them then they should step down. And they should apologise for their failures. I posted this publically on the forums most visited section.
But, as I have mentioned in my 3 OP posts in this thread, Our failings or success will not be a surprise for the community. I will do my absolute best to keep them informed, and I will paint the walls with white paint and black.

I've said previously what my reasons are for supporting you, and i sincerely do hope you achieve enough votes to become part of the CPM.
Assuming / hoping that you do eventually end up on the council... my major concern seeing some of the other campaigns is there there's 'dreamers' and 'those who can't take critisism' amongst the applicants.
Taking such into account, and that they may indeed end up on the coucil, i'm hoping your real life experience helps you understand these mindsets and helps you deal with them in an appropriate manner.
- Do you think you would be able to help douse any flames should arguments arrise when opinions differ on the council? - Also do you think you'd be able to help the dreamers/want-to-be-designers analyse what they want to achieve and ensure that their proposals are 'clear and consise'.
The reason i mention the dreamers as being a bad trait (in-part) is that developers are always time constrained, and sometimes good ideas can be passed by because it simply takes far too long to read a gigantic proposal. What a developer really needs is a summarised idea with almost bullet point justifications so it can quickly be accurately judicated and either accepted or discarded appropriately. |

So you would feel, that with no replacement or mid-term election plan, that no CPM at all is better than a CPM doing their best, but falling short?

I did not say that is what I would feel. A CPM that is not a good representative force for its community should not exist.
Do you think that a CPM that is failing and does not represent the community well should continue to act as if it has the support of the community that has rejected it?

Act as if they have support they do not? No.
Try to regain it? Yes. Try to do better? Yes.
Resigning is abandoning the players.

And if you feel that the CPM should step down in this case, you are suggesting you would resign if this was the case. It seems that is the topic you were addressing, as far as I can tell.

Talk about nit-picking... :-/
Soraya, i think it's quite clear that he's simply saying:
If the CPM doesn't represent the community, and doesn't serve the purpose that is it intended for.. then perhaps there shouldn't be a CPM.
You really seem to be nit-picking for any excuse to have a go, are you that worried about your own campaign that you need to be so finiky?
I'm sure there will be many people on either side of the fence on this point, i'm sure there'll be people who 'are' voting for judge who will disagree with this, and there'll also be those who 'arent' voting for him that do agree with it. It's a touchy subject matter for a lot of people and i think Judge is quite brave in putting a point like this forward and able to take a stand and say such a thing.
I agree with the point, because afterall.. if it's not serving it's purpose after 2 CPM's, then is it really worth having? All it would in essence be is a means of giving more people power trips. (Granted not every past candidate, nor currant candidate fit that bill, but the majority certainly do). |

I'm just asking about a point that I find very concerning. If he's going to take a stand on that point, fine, but when I asked him about it, he then said he hadn't posted about resigning... which has me confused.
Has nothing to do with my campaign. I want seven excellent CPM1 members, whether or not that includes myself.

The purpose and meaning of CPM1 was never made very clear in an accountable way to the community. They did do quite a bit during their time. And while CPM0 did struggle, I certainly don't feel 2 CPM's that do not perform to whatever standard you have is enough to discard the potential good that may occur by having a CPM in place.
Also find the idea that a majority of the past/current candidates are here for a power trip to be quite silly and dubious.

Licorice is important.
I also feel that this thread is unnecessarily vitriolic, and I might suggest that there is some kind of ulterior motive going on with respect to some of the more 'pointed' questioning going on here?

Thank you joining the election race Judge, I've found several of your videos to be massively helpful for new players and have pointed them out as something to watch.
Your credentials are indeed impeccable and from all accounts completly justified but speaking now as a voter and not a candidate I have had a concern about your previous postings which you've kindly linked so far and indeed about this very campaign thread.
Where is the optimism?
It's perfectly acceptable to be a little jaded as to the CPM after what happened with Legion and how the CPM were ignored as to the manner in which it should be made public. But the vibe I'm getting of you right now is that the CPM1 is doomed to failure and the succesful candidates first job should be write a resignation letter for when they inevitably fail.
I've no problem with someone being a little dour nor do I wish for them to think or say that everything will be sunshine and rainbows but I do look for a sense of enthusiasm for the task at hand because of my real life experiance in work.
I'm just a little concerned that you'll consider a successful CPM1 tenure as being inspite of any perceived inherent failings of the institution rather than the result of 7 individuals coming together and working hard to ensure they do they best they could.
It's a minor point and by no means a deal breaker but I'm just looking for a little zest in all the recipients of my vote is all.
