[Ansteorra-announce] Expectations for Circles during our Reign

[Queen of Ansteorra]

   Greetings from Jason and Margherita, King and Queen of Ansteorra

   We would like to provide everyone with our expectations for Circles
   that we will hold during our Reign.

   1. If the Candidate’s mentor/advocate is not present they will not be
   discussed.

   2. We are not interested in a story about how the Candidate was rude or
   offended someone 10 years ago. We are interested in ongoing behavior
   and actions.

   3. If someone has said something and you agree with them, do not
   restate it, just say that you agree with them.

   4. For those people in the Circle, we are aware that if you have not
   been playing and active for the last 3 years, it will not be possible
   for you to have an opinion and relevant commentary on a candidate. You
   are welcome to attend the circle but we would appreciate it if you keep
   your comments to a minimum.

   5. We will have an agenda for each of our Circles, if you want to
   discuss a candidate you must email us at [1]trm at crown.ansteorra.org. We
   may elect to discuss someone that is not on the agenda if there is
   time. Candidates must be submitted no later than the Sunday prior to
   the event at 11 pm.

   6. Proxies must be in writing and sent to [2]trm at crown.ansteorra.org.
   Proxies may be read in the circle at the discretion of TRMs. Proxies
   must be emailed no later than the Wednesday prior to the event at 11
   pm.

   7. In accordance with Society Policy no investigations or complaints
   will be brought up or discussed. Anyone that brings up an investigation
   or complaint will be asked to stop immediately and will not be
   permitted to speak again on the candidate or poll on them.

   8. Abstains do not count as No or Yes, they will be counted. We look at
   them as an indication of how well the person and their activity are
   known.

   We like to start and stop our circles on time, so please plan your
   schedule accordingly.

   We look forward to working with each of the Orders.

   Feel free to cross post to appropriate lists.

   In Service,

   Jason and Margherita

   King and Queen  Ansteorra
