The thing that might be difficult for CSM8 is the relative short timeframe they have between being elected and going to the first summit. But that can be mitigated with information and hard work for the first few weeks. CCP Xhagen | Senior Researcher CSM Project Manager

Scatim Helicon wrote:Will there be increased efforts to raise awareness of the CSM season this time, which in many people's eyes would be a far more important step for the CSM, and do a far better job of making the process legitimate, than fiddling with the voting system? Asking us to vote twice and to make 14 choices on the second occasion isn't exactly going to appeal to the apathetic Joe Random Eve Player. We will be ramping up the messages regarding the CSM - we have video materials for a video devblog about the CSM, the email newsletters, login screen ads, the whole of the CSM websection is to work in the Ingame Browser so linking people in chat is no effort and more.

As far as I know, you'll be able to select any number from 1 to 14. You may be amused to learn that my position was that you should be able to rank all the candidates if you so desired. You will be able to select one, or two, or three, or four... up to 14. CCP Xhagen | Senior Researcher CSM Project Manager

RDevz wrote:Quote:The summit attendees will use a new 2+5 system, with CCP and the CSM working together to pick the 5 hardest working and most feature relevant CSMs being flown to each summit and the final 2 attendees will be the "most preferred" candidates, chosen by reentering the election results into an STV election to select the top 2 candidates. This is a system open to neither abuse nor gaming, with absolutely no chance of someone (you know who you are) trying to use it as a "keep the Goons out of the CSM" tool. On the flip side, we can then bring in some other people than the top seven instead of being locked in to that predetermined selection.
Granted we know this will generate discussions about the selection, but the flavor of it will be different from the discussions on the matter in the past. CCP Xhagen | Senior Researcher CSM Project Manager
