    Don't we need election threads for elfdude's replacement as Magistrate?

    Indeed we do, evidently my mind skipped over the part where the election threads must come before the vote threads and forgot about that date >_>

    Come on folks, no applicants at all running for the Magistrate position. Are you all leaving me on my own to deal with those annoyingly clever, well versed in seemingly everything Tribune characters?

    TheDarkKnight has been elected to rule Gotham, despite all the Joker's attempts against him.

    Stay tuned tomorrow for the next Praefect election.

    Dearest Curia,

    Unfortunately I have decided to resign from the Primus Praefect role. My time is becoming more and more absorbed by real life concerns and I simply can't give the role the energy it deserves. Thank you again for voting me and I hope I have done a decent enough job during my tenure. Cheers, and best wishes to whoever replaces me!

    I think the current explaination about the Primus Praefect position needs to have an amendment in the criteria for the Primus Praefect position.

    The Primus Praefect serves a one year term as a full moderator of the Curia and its related fora. The office enforces the site Terms of Service and reviews citizen and staff referrals. The Primus Praefect requires verifiable experience in staff moderation for three months, and/or Tribunal experience either as a Tribune or having served at least two terms as Magistrate.
    The current criteria.

    The Primus Praefect serves a one year term as a full moderator of the Curia and its related fora. The office enforces the site Terms of Service and reviews citizen and staff referrals. The Primus Praefect requires verifiable experience in staff moderation as a global moderator for three months, and/or Tribunal experience either as a Tribune or having served at least two terms as Magistrate.
    After being amended.


    Without that change the newest moderators (Graham, Leonardo, and z3n) would probably meet the criteria about serving as a moderator for three months, but has the newest moderators the required experience.

    imo Global Moderator is way too high a requirement for it, especially considering you can just do 2 terms as Magistrate instead.

    I think not considering what duties a Primus Praefect has and that's to moderate the Curia by following the rules in the ToS.

    I also think that a Magistrate should served 3 months instead of 2 months, but that is my opinion.

    Going by the text you posted about the requirements, a Magistrate in fact would have to have two terms under their belt to qualify. That's way more than two months.

    Remember, a Magistrate doesn't moderate a forum while a Primus Praefect or a Praefect(s) does and I think that requires one extra month of service as a Magistrate.

    You mean terms instead of months I suppose? Because one term is already 4 months.
