It doesn't matter what you guys are called, we now have two news editors.

Now lets tell MarkG who they are and brush the dust off the AU Icon we decided upon.

After MarkG sets it up, the first news item should be about the new CIVGROUP

Did you see the "?" Con, don't worry, the election is already over.

looking forward to recieving a pm

Don;t worry - News Ed is not much work provided you can pop in at least every few days. You don;t even need the News Ed to post the news - any member of the CivGroup can, and the only thing the Ed can do that others can't is edit and accept the news, which then goes to the News Page straight away.

Of course it would make sense if the Ed was also a little bit responsible for ensuring a news item was posted every now and again....

in that case thanks to Nuclear Master and Krill for volunteering

now only the PM to MarkG, then after over a year of waiting, we'll have our civgroup... woo hooo!

[Tassadar500]

And the funniest thing was, it was just extremely good luck that there was a thread about Civgroups

[sabrewolf]

i was waiting for a long time for that opportunity several bumps in the civgroup icon thread hadn't helped

[Tassadar500]

Have you sent MarkG the PM yet? With the Civ Group?

[sabrewolf]

no, not yet, should i?
i can do it, but i don't want to do things i'm not authorised to do. you're the dean, so only you can do it or delegate it

[Tassadar500]

Well, I am But MarkG contacted you, so I just persumed. How about I do a re-poll, for the civ group icon, for four days, and if it seems like an obvious win before that, I will PM Markos about it?

[sabrewolf]

ok, i PMed him with the current info and also asked about a possible later additional "AU civgroup of honour".

for the icon, i'd propose to first ask for commissions for a possible different AU civgroup icon and then re-poll it. 7 days for each phase probably is the ideal time, not too short, not too long...

[Tassadar500]

I'm not sure I understand you. You want to wait a week for people to make new ones, then take another week to re-poll it?

[sabrewolf]

that was my idea...
to create any new ideas they need some time. they also need to spot that new thread.
the voting time could be cut shorter of course...

what would you propose? 4 days for both phases?

[Tassadar500]

I just want it to be done by this month.
