WTF Part 2

http://www.guildofmaintainers.org/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=712&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=20

So let me get this straight... There was a secret meeting between Chogon and his special list of people from certain guilds? Why the heek wasn't I invited??? I should be in the know by default. I am the Guild Of Guilds dammit, therefore I should know about every little bell and whistle in the community.

Further discussion over at my other blog.

Council Needed.

http://forum.guildofwriters.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=2310

My proposal is (currently) to have 3 members from each of these guilds [GoMa, GoW and GoA] serve on the panel, giving a nice round 9 total. Eventually we will have a web-based FCA Application, and those submitted to the panel will be reviewed, commented on and voted on in one central location -- here in [the GoMa] forum. Probably there will be a FCA Panel subforum created just for this purpose, and it will be visible only to current members of the panel. I'm thinking just setting up a simple poll for each application, and each panelist can vote and comment, and the results and a summary of the comments can be returned to the applicant.

However, all of this -- the wording of the form, the process for accepting/rejecting an application, terms and length of panel membership, etc. -- will be discussed among the whole panel once it has been formed. So whoever is selected to be the first wave of FCA panelists will need to be willing to help invent the process.

So, please reply here if you are interested. ... The way I envision it, the panel will change fairly often -- maybe every few months or after a certain number of applications -- depending on how many are on the waiting list. So if you don't make it on the first wave, don't give up!


After reading this I have come to the conclusion that the GOGU requires 27 council members. I've yet to figure out what for, I'll decide on that when we cross that bridge. But we will need someone to make sandwiches and give me a back massage.

I think that's a good start.
