on the 28th (a sunday). I would suggest that we just have EmperorMagnus take my place unless someone else really wanted to run against him, but he has not been active. ANyone interested in having the position after I leave?

And this is why I stubbornly abstained from that vote. I have full confidence in you, civman, just don't like having replacements chosen and not voted for...One who has a surplus of the unorthodox shall attain surpassing victories. - Sun Pin

If its Timeline's fault now, whose fault was it last time?
Can the banana take this position, or is he on vacation this month?Note: the Law Offices of jdjdjd are temporarily closed.

I think that this needs to be addressed. If one KNOWS they are not going to be around, they should not be allowed to run, or should have a running mate who will take their place when they DO leave. This will prevent much confusion down the road. Unexpected leaves will happen, but the President currently has power to appoint an emergency Minister to oversee that. Do I sense another amendment? Or I may be the only one who feels strongly on this.
As far as Timeline convincing someone to run, this is one of the areas where partisan politics can become a detriment. Was he more interested in the well-being of Apolytonia, or the DIA having another position? As I see it, civman was the best for the job, so I would trust that this is what Timeline was for, but IMO civman should have been disqualified for not being able to be around.
In all fairness to civman, though, he did not hide this during the election, he openly admitted he would not be around and was still voted in.

Oh yes, of course it is my fault that we will be left without a science advisor soon! And it is civman’s fault he must leave also, obviously! And the people, how could they ever have elected such a person?!
These statements above that I have just made are absurd and ridiculous. Everyone knew 2 things when going into this election:
1: civman2000 was the best person for the job
and 2: He would have to go soon
If you will remember, I made the following post on this subject:
“If, once elected, you want to appoint a deputy advisor, such as EmperorMagnus, that would be fine. The elected President could then allow him to take over once you leave (with a confirmation poll), thereby keeping everything moving smoothly.”
Now, this is a somewhat outdated statement, and there are now laws that can guide us here:
From CoL, regarding Resignations,
“The President shall establish an emergency member to take his/her place until a new election can be held, and a new person voted into office to finish the term.”
I suggest civman2000 steps down when he is ready to go, President Ninot selects someone to temporarily take the position (myself, Jonny, or anyone els willing), and then we should hold a quick election, consisting of two or more candidates, and that’s that.
Pretty painless and solves our problem.
