Alright, this Sunday (October 19th, 2008) we will be having a vote of confidence for a new Administrator. I know it seems like we just did this, so I will explain as best as I can through the boards, what is going on.
Sir Kaine is stressed... immensly. Believe it or not, running a realm of this magnitude is incredibly stressful. You have to constantly field a barrage of questions, comments, dilemmas and other things that no human on the face of the planet ever should. But it has to be done. Kaine has been doing this, rather smashingly, for some time now... but everyone has a point where they can't take much more. He needs for someone else to take over. But before he stepped down, he left the Council of Dominion with a hard task, rallying behind one person that sits on our High Council who does everything that a Leader does and never even bothers to mention the fact that it's done.
Lady Mystic is the one that Sir Kaine has suggested take the realm over. In my own personal opinion... it's a smart choice. This isn't something that just came to him overnight, either. Lady Mystic has been holding Dominion together since it started. All of the things that most people take for granted every Sunday, Lady Mystic has put into place. Sign-in sheets, Dag box, water, the much appreciated red line boundaries... tabards, both heralding and otherwise, and the dubious Armsman Tournaments. Those are all things that have to be done, and she's never even spoken up about the fact... she just quietly took the tasks on and set them into motion.
It's the request of Sir Kaine that she takes on the official position of Administrator. It's the request of the High Council... after extended deliberation, that we hold another Vote of Confidence. After all, we are all merely representatives of Dominion as a whole, and though Dominion entrusts us with a solemn task of making the tough decisions... these sort of decisions have to be made by an entire realm, not a small portion of them.
Here's where I come in. This Sunday, anyone who has been in attendance enough to be considered active will be on a list. We will have plenty of ballots, and Sir Martus and I will hold another Vote of Confidence for an Administrator. If you are active, you'll have the option of voting. By the end of the day on Sunday, there will be an announcement made regarding the vote, and everyone will be told the results.
If you want your vote to count... be there.
