TA Election May 2012 - Congratulations Zelknolf

Post by Veilan »

Everything new makes the May.

This thread shall serve for self-nominations for the position of Technical Administrator for the period May 2012 - November 2012.

Every ALFAn in good standing can stand for election. Votes can be cast by DMs, staff heads, and Administrators.

Please only post if you're self-nominating. The self nomination period shall last for seven days.

Cheers and have fun with the election,
The power of concealment lies in revelation.

I am running again.

Platform is simple, I put forward simple points last time here

-- Rollouts have a proceedure now, which has gotten better every release.
-- Tech has a clear avenue for discussion, feedback, and decision-making which was previously routed through Standards to the detriment of us all.
-- Tech has acquired a test server which redeploys from master by automation every morning, and allows anyone with git to perform black box testing.
-- Documentation is significantly improved (yes, we have some ways to go, but there's always a link on the technical documentation page which is our best attempt at turning what we've done into plain English, which was pretty spotty before)
-- Tech-side systems (that is, server messages, loading screens) are in place to advertise and promote ALFA's features.
-- Bug and issue tracking is centralized and approachable to anyone with developer skill.

Pretty sure that's everything I promised. Sum message is as you'd expect: I get stuff done, and the stuff I get done is the stuff I told you I'd do.

If anyone has questions, first person feel free to open up a Q&A thread. If not, I have little code demons to kick in their sensitive parts.

Alright, voting time.

HDMs, DMs, staff and Admin get to vote.

If you experience any problems, please contact me.

With Zelknolf the only candidate, this is a simple vote of confirmation - majority confirms, else there will be another round of self-immo..., I mean, nominations.

Please vote here.

Cheers,
The power of concealment lies in revelation.
