Purpose of the process
The purpose of this process is to ensure that alt.gothic is foremost
in the minds of the Committees that bid to host Convergence and that
the denizens of alt.gothic are confident that a bid committee can put
on a Convergence they would be happy to attend.
Timeline
Ratification takes place after the bids are up and before voting.
Specifics are in the timeline
Process
2008 is the first year in which the ratification process is being used
so the process do***entation is minimal. As long as you understand the
intent, it should all make sense. The C*B*L will refine the procedures
over time.
1. Bidders post their bid on a.g.
2. The People of alt.gothic speak up if they do NOT believe the bid
would make a good Convergence.
2.1. If objections are raised, we expect forthright
discussion to ensue.
2.2. alt.gothic allows 2 weeks for objections to be raised.
2.3. The C*B*L *****ses the will of the people.
3. The C*B*L will determine if objectors are legitimate members of
the alt.gothic community.
3.1. Sockpuppets, trolls & strangers will be ignored.
4. If The C*B*L don't see any significant objections it's approved.
5. If The C*B*L sees that the denizens of alt.gothic are not happy
with a bid, that bid is rejected.
6. The C*B*L's decision is open to appeal by The C*B*L
