@League @Spectator Hello everyone! Welcome to the Season 10 Admin Election Discussions. This channel (and threads) will be made available until 11:59pm ET on Wednesday (12/14). Voting will open shortly after or the next day. There are two admin positions open! The backer pool consisted of 18 former admins, GMs, and Committee Heads. Anexilia (GM), Assass1n (GM), Fuffy (Former Admin), Hawkish (GM), Hermit (GM), Homer (CH - Numbers), JermzPC (GM), megatallicayer (CH - Mods), mutant (CH - TM), Nightfury (CH - Tech), Spence (Former Admin/GM), Splatmonkey (Former Admin), Supreme (GM), TNoodle (Former Admin/GM), VIPVeral (Former Admin), yeldniL (CH - Events), and yetiF (CH - Stats). We had 6 candidates backed by the pool, they are:
  • kowalskey
  • King Willy
  • 42Firehawk
  • Apache
  • scraps
  • SmartAsSuperman Please use the threads to ask candidates questions, even if it is the same question for each candidate. This helps to keep things organized as well as makes it much easier for each of our candidates to be able to keep track of what questions they have being asked to them. As a reminder, you must have participated in Season 9 as a player (signed, FA, PFA) or staff member to be eligible to vote, but anyone is eligible to participate in asking questions to the candidates. Please keep these channels on topic and do not post memes or gifs. These channels are meant to be serious and mods/admins will deny individual people the ability to participate in discussions if the channel starts getting abused. I would also like to note that Admin Candidates are not able to promise anything if they get elected as Admin, as we have internal voting for changes to the league/server that requires the majority of admins to vote in favor of a proposed change. If you have any questions regarding anything to do with the Admin Election, ask in here or #help!

You can be short and straight to the point, or have more to elaborate on where you think necessary. That's why we get to ask questions in order to get clarification or elaboration on whatever topic you believe is necessary. (edited)

Sw1ft buddy, the entire point of admin elections is to pick the best candidate, and if a candidate's responses to questions are part of that, then their efforts should reflect their value as an admin

PFA | xXx_legeNd_xXx_420 12/12/2022 5:04 PM
To me it just shows that the candidate doesn't have any specific goals as admin. This is a fine approach if you explain your campaign in much more detail in the responses to your thread but it also usually backfires since most people ignore the discussions and make their decisions after reading the platform, if they even decide to read it.

PFA | Crispy 12/12/2022 5:07 PM
to me the prompts are the foundation of the discussion. If you don't have goals as admin why are you taking the place of someone who does?
5:07 PM
when you turn in your resume you're expecting questions based on what you wrote down. you don't turn in a blank paper and smile at them until they ask a question (edited)
Avatar
PFA | xXx_legeNd_xXx_420 12/12/2022 5:08 PM
I agree, if you can't think of specific actions that you will campaign for as admin and are instead like "i make league better" or "i make x part of league better" as your platform then you shouldn't be elected. Thats why I think the candidates who are vague in their prompts need to make up for it in the responses

I'd say 80% of elections are about existing standing in the community. Cash is someone a lot of people know/trust, reminds me of Spence back in S6 who won and somehow nobody noticed he was opposing public MMR, and even if he said it outright I think people still would've voted for him (edited)

Anyways back on topic to current elections: a person's prior experience and community involvement are very important. Anyone now super in the CSC loop should go read up on what people put for their application/ask clarifying questions on that.
