   A key part of the Ambassador program is the responsibility of the Ambassadors to keep a visible and wide role in their community. By ‘wide,’ I mean they should visit and post on as many forums as they can so that each of those people feel they have representation. And a key part of that responsibility is to step down when they are unable to maintain that level of activity - to give someone else who is able and willing the chance to do their duty.

They all seem pretty quiet to me, with perhaps one exception.

I’m off topic now, but one of the biggest things I did while an Ambassador was to recommend Nathan Wells to help the Castle 2007 team. He turned out to be very important in the process, and made the end result much better.

I must’ve missed that announcement first time around. It strikes me that this is exactly the sort of thing the community would like to hear so that we could share your pride in the achievement, and yet this is the first we’ve heard of it.

Allister.

(...) This is an interesting question about how representation should be spread. I believe that each fan should feel like they have access to an Ambassador to a reasonable degree. That is an ideal that, from cycle to cycle, we should move closer to. (...) (17 years ago, 26-Jul-07, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)
