Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.08 19:40:00 - [1] Edited by: Cearain on 08/03/2011 19:41:38 Edited by: Cearain on 08/03/2011 19:41:12 Originally by: Dierdra Vaal Originally by: Two step I just wanted to thank Dierdra and any other folks that worked on the site, you guys did a good job. I did find some of the questions to be a bit odd, since folks could answer that several different areas were the highest priority, it seems like only once choice should have been allowed there. I understand what you're saying, but if a candidate wants to contradict himself by claiming two different areas are both the single most important thing in Eve, they can :) It should just ahve a 1-5 scale. Something like "I tend to agree very strongly - 5" or "I tend to disagree strongly - 1". That way someone who for example thought faction war was extremely important but not "the most important thing ccp can work on" could give that a 4 instead of having to give it the equivalant of a 2 (disagree) It's just awkward wording it the way you do. -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.09 01:37:00 - [2] Not all the candidates are on this. Can candidates still get on this or is it closed? -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.09 15:25:00 - [3] Originally by: Dierdra Vaal Some candidates (like peter powers) chose not to participate despite multiple evemails being sent to them. sign ups are now closed. Why are they now closed? -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.09 16:09:00 - [4] Edited by: Cearain on 09/03/2011 16:09:36 A week seems a short time. How do you know they even read the eve-mail? Also my question is why is it now cut off. Not describe the cut off deadline. It seems pretty arbitrary. Since it is clear at this point the Dierdra Vaal is not accepting all the candidates submissions, I would ask that it be unstickied. It's not fair that ccp stickies the views of some candidates and not others. If all the candidates can contribute to this, and arbitrary deadlines that may have been enforced in a biased way, are not preventing anyone from submitting their views then I have no objection to the sticky. -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906

If all the candidates can contribute to this, and arbitrary deadlines that may have been enforced in a biased way, are not preventing anyone from submitting their views then I have no objection to the sticky. I think I can answer that simply. If you can't bother to check your mails during a candidacy campaign, how the hell are you gonna manage when you even get elected to represent people. First thing I always do on all my accounts when logging in is check mails. My corpmates know this and they know they can talk as much as they want, my mails first. As to the cut off. Equally simple. Candidates has sufficient time to respond and fill out the form. If they can't be bothered to either read their mails or fill out a form why would others bother to keep everything open? A service was offered to those who didn't get onto the form. They, for some reason, didn't take up the offer and as such aren't included. Simple enough? Some players have real lives that sometimes may take them to places where they have no internet access for a week. And some players have real lives that means they do not even log in every week. IÆm not sure that these candidates should automatically be ruled out. And yeah maybe a candidate canÆt get to answering your set of 40 questions in under a week. Anyway IÆm glad you have all sorts of time and log in checking your eve mail every day. But that is not a requirement of a good candidate. Why do you think itÆs a bother to keep it open? The op never said it would be any sort of bother to allow those candidates to submit their views. I think the op doesnÆt like the candidates who didnÆt submit their answers so decided he would close it. CCP is giving this personÆs views of candidates he likes or doesnÆt like a top spot on the forum. Bottom line: candidates were excluded from this (not just peter powers btw) and no good answer is offered as to why. CCP knows that, yet they are still going to give this persons biased website a top spot on the forum. ThatÆs not how you run an unbiased election. -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.09 20:18:00 - [6] DV This is the first time you indicated it would cost extra money. How much extra would it cost to add a profile late? Who charges it? And can you offer a link to what you are talking about? I guess I question this because the first time I asked why you won't add candidates you said nothing about money. It would seem that would be the obvious and easy first answer to my question, if it were true. My evemail is constantly blinking because of agents telling me missions expire or some garbage about insurance etc. I and as you can see others that play this game do not always check their evemail. Checking your evemail is not a requirement to run. Moreover if someone came back from a business trip on the fifth day after you sent it, it is not really reasonable to assume they will get right to it. Karland is yet another person that you seem to be excluding. If youÆre saying it will cost more money to add new candidates explain this. If you are just excluding them because you donÆt like them, then that is something different. CCP shouldnÆt be promoting your own agenda in this campaign. -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.10 03:23:00 - [7] Originally by: Imigo Montoya Originally by: Cearain snip This is a non-issue. CCP had all sorts of requirements for candidates like filling in the forms, providing passport details, formatting the candidate's blurb, all of which had deadlines. These deadlines have been added for technical and administrative purposes, it really is that simple. This service is no different. CCP enforced those requirements to make sure the enforcement was not done in an arbitrary or biased way. Not so with this. Who gets to post their views on this site is totally up to the arbitrary and biased views of one player. -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
Cearain Caldari The IMPERIUM of LaZy NATION	Posted - 2011.03.11 14:49:00 - [8] Originally by: Cassus Temon Well.. appreciate the insight; but that was absolutely useless for me. Best match was Mike Azaria at 63%; and down the list from there. The problem however, is that each canditate; either feels strongly, opposing me, about something, or identifies something as important, while opposing my opinion. Some of these are non-issues; but others, I can't agree with. Good.. good.. goo.. bad.. bad.. bad... Crap! Which tells me I shouldn't vote for anyone. If the website had not excluded certain candidates, it would be very nice. It is really the only mechanism that tells you how these candidates will actually vote on proposals. The campaign posts herein Jita are mostly fluff. Of course if someone says they ôdisagreeö that ccp have one thing be a priority over all others and you think they should û well that may cause a big discrepancy in the percentage. Maybe that candidate thinks ccp should spend allot of their time on that but not more than everything else therefore they disagree. It was pointed out that these sorts of questions cause problems to the mechanic if they are answered honestly. So you have to sort it out for yourself and not just go by the percentage. If someone ôagreesö ôagrees stronglyö to one thing being a priority over everything else then the only truly honest answers to the rest these sorts of priority questions would be disagree or disagree strongly. But that doesnÆt necessarily give an accurate overall reading of their perspective. -Cearain Make fw occupancy pvp instead of pve: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1329906
