Sorry for not being clear. Mark Haven @mrhavens, from Digital Media, has bee helping with committee photos and event. Mark will help with candidate photos too.

With so many members, we lose track of names too often. But we might recognize the picture of the person that helped us, or that we spent time chatting with about __ topic.

If you send the signal telepathically, the new personality emerges and destroys the old one. The agent then report back to the Psi Corps.

Less than an hour until the voting can begin! :grinning:

Beginning tonight at 7:00 PM, you will be able to go to the voting link and cast your votes. The online voting will be open from 7:00 PM tonight until 7:00 PM next Thursday, April 14th. Please see the original message in this thread for a very detailed explanation on how the online voting will work this year.

You can also wait until the upcoming Annual Membership Meeting at 8:00 PM next Thursday, April 14th to vote in person. (Just my opinion; but, this may be a good option for newer voting eligible members to have another opportunity to meet this yearā€™s candidatesā€¦)

Here is the link to vote online:
https://dallasmakerspace.org/voting/

Please follow the instructions listed in the original post to ensure that you have voting rights if you plan on voting. (Likewise, if you already have voting rights and do not plan to vote online or in person in this election for any reason, please consider dropping your right to vote for now to help ensure that quorum will be met.)


I would like to encourage all candidates consider uploading at least one real photo of yourself in the new ā€œFaces of Dallas Makerspaceā€ category ( https://talk.dallasmakerspace.org/c/off-topic/my-face ) to help members put a face to your name.

NOTE: Since some members prefer to not have actual photos of themselves posted publicly, please only post photos of yourself under your own thread

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Hey yā€™allā€¦ Just a quick reminder that the new ā€œFaces of Dallas Makerspaceā€ category is a perfect place to ā€˜introduceā€™ yourself to other membersā€¦

See for yourself! This is what Rodney (@rablack97) posted as a response to it! :slight_smile:

(Thanks Rodney! :slight_smile: )



Hey Brooks (@bscharff) or Andrew (@AndrewLeCody) ~ when one of yā€™all get a chance, can we get an update on how many voting members we have at this point, pretty please? :slight_smile:

Alsoā€¦ A friendly reminder to anyone who plans on voting, but hasnā€™t requested voting rights yetā€¦ Please submit the requests ASAP if you can. Itā€™s a time consuming process ~ so itā€™ll help a lot to get it done sooner than laterā€¦ Thanks!!! :slight_smile:

Just a thought. What would happen if we didnā€™t meet quorum on the board elections? I know itā€™s probably unlikely, but it could happen, right?

It would be badā€¦ Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

There is a little known clause in our by laws that would come into play.

All candidates enter the thunder dome and battle. The last five standing become the new board of directors. As a candidate you should have known what you were getting yourself into Mitch! :stuck_out_tongue:

Just less than 2 hours and 28 of the 107 voters listed (29 days ago) havenā€™t weighed in yetā€¦

Announcements will be made at the membership meeting tonight?

The voting system will show itā€™s results at 7pm but itā€™ll take me some time to tally up the votes and such, as I predict a handful of people will want to vote in person at the meeting. The more in person votes, the more spreadsheet work I have to do before we have the final numbers :slight_smile:

If I could like this statement I would.
