The Great Assembly - Southern Bellz - 07-14-2010 Quote:Article 22 ? Special CircumstancesAs Delegate and member of the Assembly of The South Pacific, I would like to call for a Grand Assembly effective asap and for a duration of as long as it takes. The thing we have to do in this thread is come up with a tentative agenda, and plan to advertise this event. I know a lot of you post on the RMB daily, so I would appreciate if you could lend a hand in advertising this event by adding something to your RMB posts. I will add it to the WFE soon. Cheers ^_^ The Great Assembly - <<Deus Ex Machina&g - 07-15-2010 Excellent! ![]() The Great Assembly - Guest - 07-15-2010 We had Grand Assemblies in the past, the information should still be in the archive unless it got lost during that invisionfree crash we had a few years back. As far as I remember, we did it exactly like this: set a date in the near future, advertise that date on the forum and on the RMB (I don't think we ever did telegramming. Mind you, back then we had 7000 nations in the region rather than 2000). At the same time, build an Agenda. Then the GA was done in two stages, the first stage (1 week? 2 weeks?) was used to harvest ideas, the second stage was used for debate and voting. I think the ideas put forward in the harvesting stage were supposed to be written down in legal code already and not vague ideas, such as to be able to finish the thing within an overseeable time frame, and since there was plenty of time between announcement and start, everyone was able to formulate and discuss their ideas in advance. EDIT: <a class='bbc_url' href='http://z1.invisionfree.com/forums/theSPacific/index.php?showforum=113'>http://z1.invisionfree.com/forums/theSPaci...p?showforum=113</a> EDIT 2: Hmm, I think I was wrong about that last bit I wrote. EDIT 3: What worries me a bit is that I've heard lots of talk that we want to change something, but very little on <em class='bbc'>what</em> we want to change. Without concrete ideas the council will fail. The Great Assembly - Fudgie - 07-15-2010 I organised the last one ... I'll see if I can remember how I did things. The Great Assembly - <<Deus Ex Machina&g - 07-17-2010 Thanks to Tsrill and Fudgie for your help! I copied the meta-agenda from last time here for reference. (I can't seem to locate the agenda itself, ostensibly released 21 December 2005.) It seems you gave a week after advertising in the WFE for issues to be raised. I think the things we want to address this time around might be more general matters than those discussed last time though - a way to remedy the effects of global inactivity on TSP, for example. Quote:December 12th - MondayI think we should begin to discuss a meta-agenda and advertise the event. I'll put together a proposal (hopefully others will as well) and hear your feedback ![]() EDIT: Missing tag The Great Assembly - Fudgie - 07-18-2010 I'm insanely busy at the moment due to new business ventures and existing committments, but please ask me any questions ok? The Great Assembly - Todd McCloud - 07-18-2010 This is indeed a good idea. It should be fun to go over things, I believe! The Great Assembly - Southern Bellz - 08-03-2010 The South Pacific announces the start of the Great Assembly. Laws will be changing, so make sure your voice is heard. |
