OK, time to nominate positions for coordinators for the 2002 year for the MAME Action Replay Page.

There's new voting rules... I'll get to those one year. Here's what each of the coordinators do.

Regulation Coordinator rules: One coordinator. One-year term. A member can nominate any number of players. A member may NOT nominate himself. The person nominated is responsible for emailing myself or mentioning on the board if s/he will accept the nomination. The coordinator's term will begin on January 1, 2002 unless extra votes prevent it, and expires on December 31, 2002.

Tournament Coordinator rules: One coordinator. One-year term. A member can nominate any number of players. A member may NOT nominate himself. The person nominated is responsible for emailing myself or mentioning on the board if s/he will accept the nomination. The coordinator's term begins on January 1, 2002 unless extra votes prevent it, and expires on December 31, 2002.

Knockout Coordinator rules: Three coordinators. Maximum of one editor. One-year term. A member can nominate any number of players. A member may NOT nominate himself. The person nominated is responsible for emailing myself or mentioning on the board if s/he will accept the nomination. The coordinator's term begins January 1, 2002 unless extra votes prevent it, and expires on December 31, 2002.

In all cases, failure to mention acceptance/rejection of the nomination means you rejected the nomination.

Nominations will last five days and so it will expire on December 5, 2001 at 2359 GMT.

Acceptions/Rejections will last eight days and so it will expire on December 8, 2000 2359 GMT.

During elections, a nominee is to have a majority vote to be elected. An abstination vote counts as a no-vote and does not count toward the majority. If a majority is not attained for one person, the people with 0 votes AND the least votes greater than 0 are eliminated. Another vote will then be called. For three coordinators, if one person has a majority vote and the next two highest vote getters do not, then the majority voter is elected, the people with 0 votes AND the person with the least votes over 0 are eliminated. Another vote will then be called.

Elections will begin December 10, 2000 at 0000 GMT and will last seven days and so it will expire on December 17, 2000 at 2359 GMT.

Document Submitted December 01, 2001 0000 GMT.

Respectfully Submitted, Pete "The Golden Gameboy"

Here's my nominations...

-- dissolute city (mdenham@coinet.com), December 01, 2001.

Following the same format as MDenham:

Regulation: BBH

Tournament: Barry Rodewald

Knockout: Brian Mclean, Lagavulin, Crash

I know most of these guys will hate me for nominating them, but I think they could handle the jobs.

-- J.D. Lowe (jdllama@yahoo.com), December 01, 2001.

D'oh, didn't notice that Crash was already nominated. I'll recind (spell check?) that nomination, and stick with just Brian and Laga.

-- J.D. Lowe (jdllama@yahoo.com), December 01, 2001.

Here's my nominations:

Regulation: Q.T.Quazar Tournament: QRS Knockout: J.D.Lowe, Skito and BBH

Now, I don't hope any of you damn me for nominating you :-)

Bye.

-- Frankie (frankie@image.dk), December 01, 2001.

I'll note that J.D. Lowe automatically accepts any nomination... he told me this by yahoo chat last night. Correct me if I'm wrong, J.D.

Besides the message board or private email, you can accept the nomination by IRC or Yahoo Chat as well.

I nominate Pat Laffaye, the incumbent, for Regulation Coordinator.

I nominate Skito for tournament coordinator.

I'm going to nominate Vaz for a knockout coordinator. I thought he ran a good knockout tourney at the HOM - so I think he deserves a nomination.

I will reject any nomination for me. I'll be way too busy as it is. :)
