    Now the confusion of whether we're choosing a CK for the current staff or hypothetical staff is cleared up, and we've voted to go with the current staff: I'm firmly placing my vote on Candidate 4.

    Team Fruity's New Vote tally, based on our decision to view this as current staff. A lot have people have changed their vote based on this. This is because we feel that if we consider this challenge for current staff, a Candidate 4 would definitely be the best fit.



    Rye - 4
    Roto - 4
    Ouch - Changed to 4
    Flying Mullet: Changed to 4
    DK - Still 3 or 4
    Linus - 3, we don't know if he's changing
    Jess - 4
    sk - 4
    Heath - 3, we don't know if he's changing
    Breine - 4

    It looks like we've gone for 4! Let's see what the rest say.

    Okay I change my vote from earlier, I think I posted my vote too early. As I've said before I think that Eoff needs to be more livelier and needs some fun. That is why I am going for Candidate 4 as of now.

    Vote
    #4

    As FM so eloquently put it:

    [17:00] Flying: so unless some major, unforseen turn of events occurs, it sounds like we're four

    We'll have our official decision up in due time. :]

    Except we're not four, we're choosing four.

    I think I'll stick with my original feeling of 3, but either or works fine for me.

    I was thinking of both cases in all honesty. I'll stick with three because that's - personality wise - what I think is best. However I'll change my secondary vote for 4 because I feel it would be more appropriate on both staffs than #1 (veterans - I feel - is fairly well represented on both staffs).

    Edit: Oh, we're not using secondary votes any longer. In which case I'm perfectly happy with number 4 but 3 is my preferred candidate.

    Default FINAL DECISION

    After posting initial observations of the individual candidates, Team Fruity was easily able to eliminate candidates two and five from the running. Candidate number two, we decided, might make a good Knight in the future; however, since we agreed that, for the most part, he seemed like a less experienced version of candidate four, we decided it was best to put him in the back of our minds, perhaps for a future appointment. Most of us believe candidate five would serve as a fantastic moderator if not for his tendency to shy away from confrontation. While he may make a fantastic addition to the Site Staff, we believe that his passive nature would interfere with his ability to enforce the rules.

    It was then brought to our attention that perhaps we should first consider at what the remaining candidates might add to the existing group of Cid’s Knights. By analyzing how each of the remaining candidates would fit into a group, we became split on candidates three and four. As a whole, we felt candidate one did not have as much to offer to a group as candidates three and four.

    This approach, however, sparked another debate; do we assume that we are electing the candidates to the currently existing group or to our hypothetical group of ten? Many felt that candidate three would offer more to our own group (as we, as a whole, seem to lack strong activity in the gaming fora) while candidate four would offer more to the current staff (which seem to have less candidate four type members). After lengthy debating (included in the attachment), we decided it would be best to elect a candidate for the current group of Knights.

    After making this decision, it came down to a simple manner of voting. We ended up with a vote of seven for candidate four, two for candidate three, and one abstaining due to a lack of presence at the tallying, although both proponents for candidate three agreed that candidate four would be a good second choice. We feel that the staff has a fair number of members similar to candidate three already, and while he would certainly be a suitable addition to the staff, he would not be able to offer much that is not already present. While activity in the gaming fora may be a weakness in our group, we think the current forum staff has this well covered already.

    Four, on the other hand, with his light-hearted, “jokester” nature will be able to serve as a sort of liaison for the staff. As an already well-liked member across the boards, we hope he would help brighten the place, likely by acting as a proponent of more events and other activities to encourage a unified community at EoFF. While his lack of activity in the gaming fora may be a slight against him, we believe this is a fault easily change. We also chose not to hold his “anti-staff” past against him; the past is past and since the member has proven to have outgrown this phase, we see no reason to recognize it as a fault.

    The Final Tally
    Breine: 4
    DK: 3
    Flying Mullet: 4
    Heath: 3
    Jess: 4
    Linus: 3?
    Ouch!: 4
    Roto13: 4
    Rye: 4
    smittenkitten: 4

    Majority rules; Team Fruity selects Candidate Four.
