OOC ELECTION FEEDBACK & SUGGESTIONS
the aim here is to create loads of different positions (not just your run of the mill positions) so lots of characters can get involved. We don't want this to be just a thing that means the most popular kids get even more CR so if we have lots of positions tailored to suit different character types then it might increase the amount of people running for them. Students can only run for ONE position each.
Suggested timeline
Day One (January 17th IG; 28th May IRL): Positions are announced, nominations open. Students submit their name, the position they're running for and the three (or less, whatevs) campaign policies.
Day Three (January 20th IG WHICH IS ALSO THE INAUGURATION; 3rd June IRL): Nominations close. Candidates are announced and their three major campaign policies published. Campaigning start!
Day Ten (January 30th IG; 17th June IRL): Hustings! Candidates face off in a debate/rap battle/knife fight.
Day Eleven (January 31st IG; 19th June IRL): FOR THE SAKE OF THIS NOT TAKING FOREVER the voting might take place here
Day Twelve (1st Feb IG; 21st June IRL): Results announced. PARTY????
