New Second Pride Bylaws Adopted

The new Second Pride bylaws were adopted by unanimous vote of the seated board of directors in a meeting held yesterday.

The new bylaws are the same as the proposed version and are linked under Documents in the site menu (url to the PDF). Minutes of the meeting will be posted soon.

I could live happily without the silly and unnecessary term limits that are continued from the old bylaws. Especially considering the dearth of candidates the last couple of years.

The combination of seven directorships into three is understandable considering the dearth of candidates the last couple of years.

However, bylaws can always be amended in the future if the need arises, so I am grateful for the overhaul and clean up.

Second Pride Election Update

According to a notice in the Second Pride Festival group, the ongoing election for Build & Marketing Directors has been temporarily suspended due to a technical glitch in the equipment.

Voting will, according to the notice, recommence with a different method as soon as possible.

The Chair and the board extends its apologies to the candidates and the membership.

I applaud Rez and the board for acting promptly when the problems were noticed. After all, we all want a result we can rely on that reflects the will of the membership.

Meeting Nikolai Again

Yesterday I met with Nikolai W. Starstorm (nee Warden) again for the first time in ages.
We had a good and long talk about life (both the first and second), love and the art of motorcycle maintenance. (Well, to be honest, not so much of the last, but who cares.) We also tried out his new abuse-HUD. 

I had my balls kicked, my balls grabbed, my face slapped etc. Finally, we also tried out some reggae dances.

Snapshots by yours truly.

SP Board Election: Voting September 1 - 8

Get your asses in gear, members of Second Pride. Voting in the board election started today and continues through midnight September 8.
You have two positions to choose your preferred candidate for, Marketing and Build.

If you haven't read up on the candidates running for the position before - you slackers - you can do so before voting by going to the Second Pride website (url). Click the 2018 Election tab and a roll down menu will pop-down.

In the menu, you can find the candidate statements and their responses to the questions that have been posed to them.

To vote, go to the Second Pride sim (url), there will be voting booths set up for your voting-convenience.

Click the candidate you wish to vote for and you get a blue menu. "Address" is just a note card, when you click "Vote" it will register your vote.

REWARD Let's Play "Find the Edit Button!"

As some of you may know, I am a candidate for Treasurer of the 2018/19 board of Second Pride.
What I see when I am logged into the SP website
(Click picture to enlarge)
That means that I am obliged to take part in the ongoing Q&A for candidates on the Second Pride website. No matter how I try, I am not a perfect proofreader and sometimes the silliest mistake slip by.

So when I noticed two mistakes/typos in my responses yesterday I wanted to edit them. For the love of me, I could not find an edit-function and instead corrected with a reply to my replies.

When I got home from work today, there was a message from the IT Director (Admin of the Second Pride website), the right honorable Mr. Lee McKay Esq., waiting to inform me that I, in fact, can edit my responses. Huh, I still cannot see where I edit?

Anyone who finds the edit-option and first posts where to find it in the comments below will win a reward of L$1,000
