I think the above system is fair and democratic. I let my name stand for
nomination. I second the above names, plus Benjamin Ellerman. I also
nominate Matt Hein, the co-curator of Lugnet.Castle, who is responsible
for setting up at least 50% of the side-bar, and its content. There were
times when I was busy with work and stuff, and he’s been very dependable for
the majority of the time.
He also makes some very nice creations, and he has published a few
interesting stories.

I’m unsure on whether I would want to let my name stand for nomination,
though. Considering if someone were to second my name, with the lack of
time I have to follow community events, I feel I might be ineffective
in that position. 1
However, I would be interested in contributing behind the scenes
or supplying ideas where they are needed, (through email, most likely)
If anyone needs ideas, I probably have a few of interest to share.
I haven’t read much into discussion, so these ideas may
sound reiterative, just to say in advance.
The first would be standards in which the castle guild would
sell their models. Now, what do we want in a model? Should it match
to the system I use to write weekly reviews, or a seperate governing
system? If the former, we would want an equal balance between
the aesthetic qualities
model and structural integrity
parts assortment,
function,
color,
alternate models.
or with the latter, a balance between its qualities?
Another question: would guild models have to adhere to the
castle city standard? Logically, I think they should. Or,
you can sell models in two classifications, conforming models
and accent models (which aren’t compatible, but look great on
any display.)
Can outside parties contribute to the castle guild? Perhaps
a sort of submission standard should be set, and a small
moderation committee to check the integrity of those presented
models. From my impression, sets would be made to order
and shipped out by the guild. (the designer would receive a
small commission for designing the set, and the guild would
profit to fund future community projects, whatever they
may be.)
Well, those are my guesses on the subject, so take them
as they are worth.

[1] Other projects, such as my writings, artistry (drawing) poetry, personal
occupations, lego and the need to be on the field otherwise stray me from
a lot of the discussion. I know, priorities, priorities...however,
I’m poised to buy a mobile office soon, so that’a a nice thought.

| Matt, I think you are confusing something here. Ben M. mentioned that this committee should cover issues of the CBG. The CBG and CastleWorld are two seperate things.
