Guild Councilors:
During a 1 week nomination period, candidates are nominated for one of the three councilor positions by other GoW members. Nominees must accept before the end of the nomination period.
Following this will be a 1 week voting period. A separate poll for each position will be created, listing all nominees for that position. At the end of the voting period, the candidates with the majority (> 50%) of the votes will adopt that position. Ties will be settled by a 1-week run-off election, featuring only those tied candidates in the new poll.
The term for each Guild Councilor position will be for 6 months following the end of the voting period.
This would make sense if we had scores of qualified people clamoring for the guild councilor spots. That not being the case makes this completely unnecessary.
The current councilors will take these positions. We are not starting over, we are reforming a system that desperately needed it. If people wish to replace a councilor they merely have to be a representative and start a proposal.
