Election June 2015
[justify]This is the thread which'll be updated with election results once voting ends. But for now this'll remain a discussion thread for this June 2015 election. You're free to announce if you voted Yes or No here for Candidate Flower and why, and discuss amongst those who haven't voted just yet. I have placed my vote but I will remain impartial until the results are released by myself 12 hours after the vote has closed for me (as to ensure people of all timezones has voted).

EDIT2: Come midnight tonight (the 16th of June, GMT+1) you'll notice usergroup changes. For 36 hours (that's 24 hours until voting ends plus 12 hours before votes are counted/validated) Gravity will be run by myself as Developer until the votes have been announced. The Management usergroup will become the Named Director group and the Named Director group will become the Developer group (for myself). I await the results with great anticipation ^_^

For Bug, The, and Flower who disabled the countdown for themselves (yes, I know right :annoyed: ) here is the link to place your vote...[/justify]
Place your vote!

EDIT: Due to my mistake of not activating the ballot box accounts no votes prior to this notice have been counted. I apologise but this has been fixed. This was because of user IDs not working with the ZB API.


Results
9 - 3 voted in favour of Flower
Number of invalid votes: 1.
[justify]The:
Thank you for your term as my chosen Named Director and it's unfortunate that you do not feel you're up to the standard to campaign for a second term. I feel you left too much to me to do however and made little progress to move Gravity forward other than supervising it. Nevertheless you acted with pure professionalism and integrity, and I think with a little improvement in your leadership abilities I think you would make a positive difference if you were to ever campaign again.

Flower:
Congratulations on your election victory and I look forward to seeing you shape up Gravity in the way you see best for the community. Needless to say you had my vote the moment you said you would like to advertise Gravity and expand our community; something I think this community needs. You now hold the responsibility to do that plus enforce and abide by the Constitutional rules I have laid out (.txt file attached to this post). I will help you do so by working closely with you but I will not hold any leadership position, that is purely for yourself as our new democratically-elected leader.[/justify]
Once we have a confirmation that Flower accepts his newly appointed position I will grant him his user-group and start the new democratic term. Thank you all for voting :)

Weird - especially when you have staff forum tabs open, and you get an error when you try to do anything...

Truly it is an honour to be chosen three times more than rejected. It is a pleasure of mine to be able to help our community grow, as fast as possible. But at the same time, we must look after the forum's betterment. :)

I accept the position I have been given. :wub:

You told me I couldn't vote twice. :glare: I proved you wrong :r :snicker: :r

Best of luck to Flower in his new term. A word of advice, from the (supposedly) wise Former Named Director: Think of Ferby as only a member. Don't be constrained by what you think he thinks (if you're unsure, ask! :P ). I'm pretty sure I only started figuring that out near the very end of my career, (as Ferby pointed out) so maybe I shall campaign in the future...

Exactly that. I shall give input like any other member as it is my right to. The only power I hold is over development and ownership. You were legally and democratically chosen by this community to lead them by a wide majority. Don't let the false idea of me being your superior stop you, because I am not. I will only step in when a Constitutional rule is broken. Other than that you're good to go :up:

It's given in the first post of the topic, and the result is; I'm the named director. :)
