I approve of this list, except I would probably replace zaria with Amadi.
One day I am going to be on survivor and I will kick ass.

Amadi has a lot of good ideas, and was on my list last year, but I'm not sure he has the right attitude to work effectively with CCP. Also, Zatara was a lot of help with the high-level play perspective, and I don't want CPM2 to lose that.
high level play still exists?

tbh I hope ratatti has the marbles to kick out any trolls of cpm early on and replace them with a runner up this time around....
Losing judge since like day 1 was a blow cpm1 had to deal with and they did pretty good job without him. Biomassed kept people updated and many active cpm participated ingame,forums, and even a podcast. Despite all the cpm hate. You guys did well. However just because you guys did well is no excuse for ccp to let themselves and let this game get trolled.

My endorsements, and more importantly, why I endorse them. Pokey Dravon, Cross Atu, Darth Carbonite, Breakin Stuff, Kevall Longstride, Zaria Min Deir, and Ripley Riley deserve your votes! You match 5 of my 7. ;) SirManBoy's on mine; liked his work, felt he was worth giving another term. Also I decided to gamble on Aeon Amadi. Dude flips too many tables, but he works hard and knows what he's talking about.
another thing is I think he is serious and I would like candidates to treat this seriously. I would hate to see another judge. Some candidates from the last election who lost have quit the game and never came back. Judge left during his term. Even Zatara took a break from playing dust (he admits but also says that he still attended meetings) . But even so... How can you help further develop a game your not playing? Its not my place to dictate who plays what game but that is why I want someone who loves this game regardless of the pitfalls so I don't have to worry about it. He falls, he gets back up. He doesn't spend hours outside of this game coming up with new ideas, design concepts, art for absolutely no reason. Those activities are something you would expect from a cpm. I admire his persistence and support his ambition to become cpm.
Which sales pitch is better?
"I will do this and that and this if elected..."
vs
"I have already done this and this and that. I designed merc suits on paint or whatever.. I post ideas regularly."
I know that is not his actual sales pitch but I firmly believe that actions speak louder than words.

How can you help further develop a game your not playing? I'm not sure Z has a PS3 anymore. But I'd actually say after filling out a term that actively playing the game has little to do with CPM job effectiveness. Our own personal experience in game isn't generally as important as the feedback we receive from other players anyways. In fact, I didn't even look at in-game activity numbers when determining my list.
Do you seriously believe in what you are saying right now?

If our feedback to CCP was based on our own experience rather than the community's, we wouldn't be doing that great of a job. You need to understand the game, definitely. But I can provide focused feedback on a patch without actually playing it.
no ..no no no.
that is not what I meant. The part about relaying the community opinion was the ONLY GOOD THING YOU SAID. I don't expect cpm to no life the game or whatever but when they actively do not play for weeks or months on end... That just tells me that they do not care as much as they pretend they do. Are they frustrated with the game and want a break? Well so are we. The community is fustrated and we voted you guys in to solve the situation. Going on vacation is NOT helping the community AT ALL.

You know... I probably should not be surprised. You remember how from the very start I have been saying to kick judge off and get someone else. You defended him till nearly the very end. For months you made excuses for him. Maybe excuses he told you? who knows but by end term your attitude changed to "Well it's too late now. it would be counterproductive at this point to catch the new guy up... ect.. ect." something along those lines.
And now you defend this.. How can you even understand community opinion if you don't play? How can you explain to CCP the pitfalls of dropships if you rarely fly one? How do you express community concerns about a newly released update when a new patch is only tested for a few hours before they log and go to a new game and not come back for weeks? seriously? Activity and understanding the state of the game is important. We seem to have differing views on what exactly would qualify as a decent cpm. The performance of many of the cpm I have seen so far has not been decent. It seems like you are just looking around you at what everyone else is doing and accepting it as the standard. That is no way to work. Set high standards for yourself and push yourselves forward. Be the best you can be or at least try too. Not just in CPM but in all things.

And between doing my elected job as a CPM and playing the game, I want to make sure I'm doing my job for the community.
I am not attacking you. You do not have to make excuses. You did your job and fulfilled your obligation and commitment to the best of your ability. I believe that and I will vouch for that. But your viewpoints in my opinion are wrong and you are wrong to defend your fellow cpm for their mistakes. It is not improving or helping anything. In fact I think you are further destroying this game by reenforcing that all this BS is acceptable. It is not acceptable. A line has to be drawn somewhere but you never had the backbone to draw the line. Again I am not really insulting you, I did compliment you earlier. This is constructive criticism you did good in many ways but you can be wrong too.

Regarding Judge, he seemed to have a plausible justification for a while. When he came back, and then ditched off again immediately, I stopped defending him. I was never a big fan of his (I advocated people not vote for him) but I gave him the benefit of the doubt.
I don't fly dropships when I play, GJR. So it doesn't matter if I'm playing the game or not when passing on feedback on dropships. As barely anyone really plays every single role, your point only highlights my point.
lololol no it doesnt highlight your point.
This attitude of yours makes you ignorant. Think of it this way. A professor goes up to you and explains to you a lesson. Now you go home and try to explain the lesson to a friend of yours. Will you be half as knowledgeable as the professor on the subject just with one lesson? one talk? Will you completely understand it?? Can you relay the message just as well? No you will not. You may understand the basics but that doesn't make you an expert. In this case, ccp should just skip you altogether and just go straight to the player that does know what he is talking about. Or we can have someone that does play. That does test all features. That is very versatile in game and can understand and communicate effectively between all players and CCP. The way you make it sound... to me it sounds like a half- assed job. I do not want that in this next cpm. I have standards and I expect them to be met.
