Subject: Reminder: Moderator Voting Ongoing (Repost)

Moderator voting has begin!

1) We have taken several security measures to ensure
that the voting process is free from manipulation. We
will not make public those measures for obvious reasons.

2) CCC members who signed up after May 23, 1999 are
not eligible to vote.

3) Those members who are eligible may access the voting
booth by clicking on "Computer Chess Resource
Center" and then "Computer-Chess Club Opinion Poll".

4) If you wish to read the moderation philosophies of
the candidates, you may do so by clicking on "Computer
Chess Resource Center" and then "Computer-Chess Club
Moderator Elections".

5) The voting will end at 5 P.M. (New York time) on
Wednesday, June 23rd. We will announce the winners on
Thursday morning, June 24th.

6) The current moderators will stay in office through
June 30, and we trust that there will be substantial
communication between the incoming and outgoing
moderators prior to the new regime taking over on
July 1st.

7) You may vote for as many or as few moderators as you
wish. The top three vote getters will be elected and
vote getter #4 will be an alternate. The new moderators
may decide how the alternate may or may not serve.

8) We now ask that all discussion related to the voting
be halted.

On a personal note...
From my view on the inside, I feel it safe to say that
the job of moderator is more suited to Hell than it is
here on earth. It is generally a thankless job which
entails endless hours of making decisions that will
not make some people happy. But whether you agree with
decisions that have been made in the past or not, I can
assure you that a seeming lack of judgment on any
moderator's part should not be mistaken for a failure
to want to do the "right" thing. My thanks to Will, Harold,
and Peter for some pretty tough work. Finally, I applaud
the current nominees for stepping up to the plate (to
likely get thrown at), for without moderators this forum
would be one gigantic food fight. I do not know about any
of you, but I like what has been created here, and I hope
that the winners can contribute in a positive way to making
the CCC an even better place to be.
