Duuring at any time can change this.
I will give this till
Mar 3rd at a minimum(see below) before i lock in who can run and put up the thread for people to vote in.
If people are still showing interest in signing up on march 3rd,
i will move the deadline back a day or 2. We are behind on when this should be up, and if people aren't as interested as signing up like they were in the past, then there isn't too much of a reason to wait on voting a few days longer.
I wont change how long the voting period is, just the sign up time period if people are not interested.
The time to apply will end at 12 am on the 4th central US time. so a little under 23 hours from now. if i see a troll app, i wont add it. Consider this your warning. I'll try and update the op daily, other mods can update it as well.

Are you aware that the position of Community Representative is one of trust and confidence, and do you understand you can be punished for breaking that trust? : Yes, of course.
Why should you become CR? : I've been around since mid 2012 and know or know of most you of you. I believe i'm quite trustworthy and approachable. I would say i'm pretty fair and observant as well. I have experience being in positions of power within the community(NA GF Mod, NANWL Mod, various servers) so I hope I've gained most of your trust and respect. I know some of you probably hold animosity towards me for being banned on NA GF but I have a job to do and I take it seriously without going overboard. I also have experience tending to all sorts of different scenarios(with regiments, NA GF, NANWL), although I know this will be much different. I haven't been too prevalent in participating in or hosting tournaments but I don't really feel like the CR should be a tourney host as that only tends to a section of the community. I probably would host a linebattle though since mostly everyone in the community participates in those. I have a few ideas i'd like to try out to make linebattles more fun for everyone.
I honestly don't have a well thought out agenda at the moment but i'd be willing to settle all sorts of different conflicts and troubles and if elected, I would think of a few things to do(might think of things within the next couple of days too).
I wanted to put myself forward so you all have options. I don't want you guys to just pick your friend, pick someone who you truly believe will make a positive impact on the community. This election really shouldn't just be a popularity contest or a contest of which regiment has the most members with FSE accounts.
Thank you for your time.

Why should you become CR?: My heart has always been with trying to make the community a better place. Often to a silly extent such as boycotting 15thHvB (which worked btw) or telling off Karth whenever he's being a prick in the community. As I've said and as many of you already know, I see myself as more of an event hoster. To me events are what keeps this community alive, it's why we play to begin with. As CR I will actively try to create newer and more imaginative events in the community as well as promoting the events of others. This ofc will not be my only concern, reviving NA1 is still something I support and want to push for. I also ran for CR several times in the past, last election I was 2nd place (lost by 4 votes). Couple other things: Moderator for NANWL, Ex-Mod of TNWL, Shoutbox Mod, Hosted or Admined a ton of events in the past. Friend of Duuring.

Why should you become CR? : I've been apart of this community for more than 3 years, and have been playing this game for more than 4 years. I've been a server administrator for more than 3 years as well. I've been involved in multiple tournaments such as NANWL. I know how much responsibility this position holds, and I am ready to accept it. Also I have been the CR for the past 2 terms
Candidates EU:

Name: Riddlez
EU or NA: EU
Aware of responsibilities and penalties when breaking set rules: Yes
Motivation: I want to continue the work I have put into this community for the past term. If there are any matters within the community, I want to help resolve them, as well as being a connection between the community and the moderation staff/ developers. Currently I am working with orcaryo on a matter that we know is important to the community, will take substantial work to achieven but will, if succesfull, be a constructive aid to this forum, and BCoF, hopefully until the new game is released. I cannot get into details yet, as we still have to contact the adminstration in detail about our plan, but if it works, of which I am confident it can, it'l be good. Furthermore I would like to suggest some improvements to the forums the coming term and try to engage the community more into the idea of the CRs.
some things to possibly discuss,
should we keep CRs?
should the term limit be increased to say 3 months, or a different length?
