I doubt they will, but I hope SP won't stop posting in the regular Bar thread.

I wouldn't, based on the "voice of god" revelation we had a few days ago.
Nonetheless:Mousebumples wrote:1) Stick with GHRs as the primary method.
GHRs were never the primary method of legality questions, and that you think they are shows why you can't be trusted to interfere with the operation of the council. If mods continue to encourage players to submit GHRs on legality questions that should be debated in the forum, this will all have solved absolutely nothing because a lack of public consultation is the primary grievance that WA players have expressed.Mousebumples wrote:2) Start up a thread in the GA for legality issues to be lodged.
That sounds like an immensely confusing morass.Mousebumples wrote:3) Some hybrid option
As does that.Mousebumples wrote:4) Something else?
Why can't people simply post legality questions on the forum, as always? The whole point of appointing WA players was to get people who actually visit the WA forum involved. If all six councillors and all of the moderators genuinely miss such a post, there are bigger problems afoot.

I do agree that everyone has an opinion on anything and everything. That's a given.
How will each member actually make sure that they don't show their bias, or cancel the bias? Don't vote at all? That doesn't make sense.
Anyway, I still do believe there's a conflict of interest with CD's appointment, even without regard of his stance on abortion. As a delegate of a region, how is he expected to vote? Vote according to the region's wishes? Don't vote because of conflict of interest? Don't be on GAS?
Why isn't Sciongrad being given this level of grilling for his delegacy? Would I be getting it if I was still delegate of Monkey Island? This seems to be a poorly shaded attack on CD the player, which is incredibly unfair.

Drop the red herring. So what would yourself, Scion, CD and the rest of the council do in these instances of possible conflict?
What I am getting is just accusations of me being biased but no substantive policies/actions in the event of such conflicts, which you yourself have stated. I don't see why anyone should be worried about accusations of bias if one can address the concerns adequately.
Yet what I am seeing is sorely lacking.

As much as I think we need a far less silly (and offensive) official name for the council, I really like the idea of the "GAS Chamber". I think that "Gas Chamber" should be for the council what "Festering Snakepit" is for the GA.
