Agreed, second year one of the best candidates got missed.
But other than that, overall, I'm pretty happy with the CPM2's makeup.
CPM1 Elect. Thanks for all your support. [email protected] for ideas, thoughts, and feedback.

It would have been handy to have a Spanish speaker on the CPM. I hope she is a little more active on the English forums this year. I would like to get to know her before the CPM3 election. From what I've dug up, she's posted ONCE on the entirety of the forums. Then her voter base must come entirely from her in game chat channel. I have contacted her and asked her to post on the English forum about what she is doing for the Spanish community. I would like to know more before CPM3 elections.
My votes probably came mostly came from people I know in game and some in the Spanish speaking community that I do not know. I have a lot of friends who speak Spanish and am in Smart Deploy with a lot of Spanish speaking corps. Before being in AoD, I was a part of Rise of Legion, so I also have a lot of connections in that alliance as well. I am willing to chat with you more about my connections to the Spanish speaking community some time. ^_^
It is very true, I spend a lot of time in game and not much on the forums. |

She exists! 
Seriously, drop in and participate in the discussion, particularly on Features and Ideas a bit this year so we can get a feel for where you stand. Getting 8th in the voting without a Forum presence is very impressive! Gain some support from this part of the community and it will likely be enough to push you over the top in CPM3.

We only need you on the Forums a little more. Don't want to cut into your game time. I work on a Computer, so I do the Forum stuff at work when I can't play DUST anyway. That is why I have such a large Forum presence.
Well thank you! I will try to be a little more active on the forums. As for CPM3, we will see what life brings my way, I am not going to start campaigning for CPM3 quite yet.
I work at home a lot, so I am normally sneaking in Dust whenever I can.  |

I sent you an in game mail from my EVE account earlier. (I can access EVE mail through a browser. Wish we had that for DUST.) I was wondering if you could check out the Novatos Espa+¦o chat channel and let me know if they are helping new players they way they are supposed to? I had a Director in my Corp from Peru who set it up, but he does not seem to be playing anymore and I have no one who speaks Spanish to supervise the channel and keep it on track.

I am just logging into Dust now and will check it out. Also, you can send my Eve toon, Bonita Amors, mail as well. I don't play Eve often, but I agree, it is really nice being able to access Eve mail on my phone. It would be great to have that option for Dust! |

So I did some analysis on the vote data and two things popped out:
First:
Pokey was an incredibly popular 3rd or 4th place vote, but largely on ballets locked down by eventual CPM2 winners in the 1st slot. Breakin and Cross in particular beat Pokey to a lot of ballots.
The other side of that coin is he was moderately uncommon on losing ballots, so few of the transferable votes went to him.
People who really dug-in to the election and researched the candidates love Pokey! ...but not quite as much as another candidate. And among players who were just logging-in to vote for their friends or CEO, he seemed to have little traction.
Even though STV is supposed to lessen the problem of good candidates who might not have the most hard-run campaigns getting missed, there are situations where STV can fail to bring them into the fold, and it looks like we just witnessed one.
Second:
The claim of "thousands of votes cast" seems to be based on each candidate on a cast ballot counting as a "vote".
The actual number of people who voted seems to be in the high hundreds.
The number of votes provided by the counting program is "910", but doing a line count of the raw vote data yields a number of "740". Not sure what the discrepancy is due to. Regardless, it seems the voting body hasn't grown as much as we thought it did.  That said though, given how many filled out the full seven slots and judging by the spirited discussions that happen on the boards regarding the CPM, we can at least surmise the voting part of the player base is passionate.

The total number of accounts that voted was 910. Slightly down on last year but stable enough to demonstrate a player base of at least the same numbers as a year ago.
What is gratifying however is the number of votes cast was significantly higher due to the vast majority of voters picking 7 candidates in preferential order. Last year a full third of the electorate just voted for one candidate, therefore denying a lot of great candidates a chance to be elected.
Part of the problem is the online participation outside of the game is very low. It's no coincidence that the number of voters is not dissimilar to the number of active forum users here.
Should the game make it to an x86 based format, there is the possibility of being able to either vote within the game itself or a linkable browser from it. This is something I'll be pushing for should we get the chance.

If the big Corps all put his name down as second on their ballet behind whatever the Corp's primary candidate is, that would definitely help.
His name topped the list of people I recommended to my corp... :(
