Especially since Discord went down to restrictions a few hours ago, this is one factor that is leading me to withdraw my campaign, as I think I could provide an effective, positive, and honest chairperson leadership but another year might be best for me giving and getting the full experience because of how unpredictable my restrictions are, as well as some potentially tough college work coming up. I trust both BLOF and Fun With Despair with the chairperson spot; I know BLOF will work their hardest to keep things flexible instead of unfun or overly rigid as chairperson if they win this election, and I expect Fun With Despair to live up to their campaign promises for giving everyone who thinks their voice should have a chance one if they get this spot. | Especially since Discord went down to restrictions a few hours ago, this is one factor that is leading me to withdraw my campaign, as I think I could provide an effective, positive, and honest chairperson leadership but another year might be best for me giving and getting the full experience because of how unpredictable my restrictions are, as well as some potentially tough college work coming up.

I have decided to withdraw my vote for Fun With Despair because I find their soft cap policy to be unrealistic. “What the Poll Committee should '''not''' be is a secret club that locks up at eight people and tells someone who is genuinely interested in helping the community to just wait a year for a chance to get in.” I actually would prefer this to be how the Poll Committee works as then if you get a slot at the very beginning it’s a complete experience, and lumping a ton of people in the Poll Committee makes it a feel like a less important position. {{User:Electrical Bowser jr./sig}} 23:40, July 3, 2022 (EST) | |||
:What complete experience are you referring to? I understand that a late joiner would be missing out on active participation in some of the earlier discussions, but there's always the opportunity to re-read topics later on and get a feel for the position. I also don't understand the "less important position" point because like... in my own opinion, why SHOULD it be a secret club? It's year-round and people can start getting interested later on during that period. The thing is, with comparable limited-time endeavors like the Awards Committee, we close signups after a period of time but conduct our meetings in public areas, with logged discussions, votes, and etcetera; non-members are also allowed to speak during meetings. The only private discussion really just pertains to actual awards setup, and we archive our boards at the end of the season. In comparison, outside writeups and bits of public discussion for each poll, my impression of the Poll Committee is that the meat of it is done behind-the-scenes. And that's fine! But I don't see how people taking an interest and being able to join whenever they want with no limit apparently makes the position less important. I don't want to put words in your mouth, but I hope that's not meant as a more people = less clout thing - it just makes more sense to me that someone with genuine interest should be able to apply and possibly join, instead of going "Hey dude do this" at Poll Committee members all the time just because they missed the sign-up period. - [[User:Turboo|Turboo]] ([[User talk:Turboo|talk]]) 00:05, July 4, 2022 (EDT) | |||
::I uh, also forgot to make the point that the clout issue is addressed in his campaign by having the extra members integrated into the Rotating Leadership system and kept active, so yeah I'm not really sure where the less important thing is coming from. - [[User:Turboo|Turboo]] ([[User talk:Turboo|talk]]) 00:15, July 4, 2022 (EDT) | |||
