Althing Notes: 18 July 2015
Sheriff Business:
In attendance:
Brother Fredrik
Needle
Raposa
Baldur
Note: Since there was only one elgible voter present, it was decided no important votes would be held.
Discussion: Pre-voting.
As a method of keeping discussions from taking up too much time, I think we should try out the idea of “pre-voting”. Basically a quick show of hands. If there is enough people in favor of an idea, without discussion, then we simply hold a binding vote and move on. Those who are unsure should abstain from the pre-vote. The pre-vote is decisive and the abstain votes would not change it, then the pre-vote will stand.
Discussion/Vote: Moving from Sponsored to Associate Land.
Gives us the following additional rights in Kingdom politics:
- Vote for Kingdom Office.
- Vote for the Kingdom Board of Directors.
- Vote for Kingdom event bids.
It also sets us up to become a Core land if we desire. Core lands have full kingdom benefits, including being able to hold kingdom office.
The additional responsibilities are tied with reporting votes for the above.
Vote was not held, however request for more information - Is there a waiting period between the vote and achieving the land status.
