I see you are continuing the fiction of the "peace time council." I had two friends not vote for the first time this year. It was directly related to the complicated voting method and problems with the system. They gave up after trying. I like STV, but not the method of voting presented.

Congratulation to Mike Azariah and provi block candidate Ali Aras.

P.S: anybody find it strange that Russian and Ukraine EvE players have such low voter participation?

I find it hard to believe anybody capable enough to handle eve interface and game play would be unable to handle this CSM vote mechanics.Ugh

Congratulations to all who won.

But peace time council, that has to be the worst spin job ever done. CCP was told by everyone that the STV system would be a huge drag on voter numbers, now after the largest campaign by CCP to get people to vote for the CSM, we end up 10,000 votes short of last year.

Yes CSM7s lack of transparency and communication will not have helped but

The STV has got to go.

Edit: Also who were the two with the highest votes that get to go to Iceland automatically?

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

I have to disagree. I think election results vindicate Trebor and other STV advocates. All the doom sayers (pardon the pun) that predicted blue doughnut will grab most of the seats were wrong. There is plenty of people that were either off doughnut vote list, or low on same list, that successfully got elected, and that shows that STV does not give any kind of overwhelming advantage to organised vote blocks.

I, for what is that worth, am perfectly fine with STV remaining for the next election. It would be far more useful to focus on voting promotion. More vote spam, more and better videos, and for fucks sake target low turnout voters like Russians and Ukrainians. CCP has Russian speaking employs, get them to go and work that community to vote more.

To everyone who voted in the election, thank you for taking the time to make your voices heard. I think I can say without reservation that the quality of CSM8 candidates was higher than in any previous election, and that the new council will have more worker-bees than every before.

CSM8 has the big job of picking up where CSM7 left off, and making CSM even more influential. But I am confident that they are up to the task.

To those candidates who did not get elected, I can only say this: every one of you that I had the pleasure of talking to during the elections impressed me as being eminently qualified. Your campaign for CSM9 starts tomorrow -- by lining up support in your corps and alliances, and providing constructive advice both in the forums and privately, you will have a better chance next time.

To my fellow CSM8 members, tonight we celebrate. But don't drink too much, because tomorrow is a work-day! Twisted

"This drop in voting has provided us with a new perspective on CSM interest from the playerbase..." then goes on to list some inane reasons as to why people didn't vote. I personally didn't vote because of the new STV system - it's horseshit imo and I don't have the time or the inclination to go through every. single. nominee. and *rank* them in order. Are you f**king kidding me?? It's time-consuming enough to go through the list and the matching programs etc. to pick just one.

So why didn't you just pick one? Please don’t tell us you did not know you could pick any number <14 of candidates?

I nearly didn't vote, and only ended up voting on one account mainly because I did not know any of the candidates very well. STV was no problem as a system.

As the figures show, a lot of people did not want to battle through that system to chose even one person.

The STV system was the worst thing to happen, now even less people care about the CSM.

You are exaggerating quite a bit. Dragging candidates to them boxes in other of preference is in fact much simpler then say dragging modules in to your ship to get a functional pvp or pve fit. In fact I would advise corps to kick any member that complains about STV being to complicated. If they cant handle such simple task how could you ever expect them to fit their ship in proper way?P
