Pokey nailed it.
I put out an endorsement list because my primary goal isn't "win a trip to Shanghai". My primary goal was "elect a great CPM". That doesn't just mean the seat that I want to fill, but that we get seven competent, communicative CPM members. So I endorsed the top six people besides myself I felt could fill those needs.
Note that I didn't do any sort of negotiation or politicking on this. My list was determined without any expectation of placement on other people's lists. It was straight up the best people for the job, in my fairly well-informed opinion, based on months of conversations with the candidates. It's not to say that the ones who did not make the list will do a bad job (with a notable exception or two), but that the ones I picked will probably do the best. Supporting them means supporting a better CPM. If I am elected, I'll do my best to work with each and every CPM member, and I have no ill will towards the people who left me off their lists. Most notably, Dennie and I had nearly identical lists, except he wasn't on mine, and I wasn't on his. I complimented him on an excellent list, even though I wasn't on it, because obviously we share the same taste in CPM candidates, since we both picked the same six. ;)
Furthermore, as an alliance leader, I was going to be putting out a suggested list anyways, as is common for alliances and corporations to do. Since you should assume everything you send to your alliance is basically public... it made no sense not to post it here as well.

So glad it is too. Been in this rat race for like seven months. o_o
I'm just answering Zion Shad's thread, since I'm the dude who kinda kicked off the endorsement train this year.

Every candidate was invited to the channel. Every. One. Some did not show up, one publicly refused. The majority of the candidates not on my list were also in the channel. The fact that I've conversed with so many of the candidates so much in that channel just means I have a really good picture of who they are.

Such agreements are commonplace in CSM voting. It did not happen here. At least I can confirm it did not affect my list.

I think I made it clear in my recommendations that doing your own research and deciding for yourself was definitely encouraged. :)

No conspiracies occurred in the CPM1 candidates channel, but there definitely was catfights.
CPM1 Elect. Thanks for all your support. [email protected] for ideas, thoughts, and feedback.
