Thank you for your feedback on how we should proceed with the MyGaming Community Steam group and give-aways so far.
Original suggestion thread here
Discussion thread here
To speed things along, I've decided not to create a poll on how we should proceed regarding specifics such as rules and their enforcement for the moment, but instead focus on the pressing issue of appointing new officers to administer/moderate the group.
In my opinion (and you may disagree below) the specifics around rules amendments and enforcement will flow from the new officers that are appointed. If you believe the community should vote on rules changes and enforcement specifics which the new officers must then implement, please say so (briefly) in your response below.
I'm running this like we run nominations for trustees at our body corporate AGM, as it seems analogous.
These nominations are for officers who will ensure that members of the MyGaming Community Steam group comply with the activity rules implemented for the group. Existing officers will not be "unstarred" for the moment. If you think they should be, please indicate so in your response. Remember that officers may have two functions that need not have anything to do with one another: membership, and posting Steam reviews.
Any officer not appointed through this process will not have a vote on membership issues, as we will specifically be appointing an uneven number of officers.
Existing officers may be nominated, as well as members who have already left the group such as AlphaJohn, BeoTeK, Eugene, and Wyvern.
The nominated person will have to accept their nomination (no forced voluntary service on MyGaming).
You may nominate yourself, but a second is required for you to be eligible (accepting your nomination counts as a second otherwise).
Nominate as many people as you like, but try to keep it sane. Five nominations or less seems reasonable to me.
Closing date for nominations will be 20:00 on Monday (tomorrow). Closing date for accepting nominations will be 12:00 on Tuesday. If at 18:00 on Monday you see that someone you think should be nominated hasn't been nominated yet, feel free to post a second batch of five nominations.
Depending on how many nominations there are (i.e. an even number, or over 15), I may launch a poll so the top 5-9 are appointed.
Please try and keep responses in this thread short and sweet, and use the two other threads linked above for further discussion.
An example response might be:

An example response might be:
I nominate:
- Jim Raynor
- Adahn the Nameless One
I second:
- Geralt of Rivia
I say let the new officers decide on how the rules should be amended and how best to inform people if they are below the activity threshold.
I say existing officers not nominated here or who declined nomination here may stay on to post reviews and assist in other non-membership related ways.
