Town Leadership
I have noticed we have many folks coming to Midway seeking our help. I also have noticed some of them leaving with out there plee's of help being met. I think as a town we need to have a centeral person which can orginize us to better help people. Who should take on this responsilbity? Is it the constable? The mayor? Or some other willing person?
I'm not an orginizer. But I will support and help out.

Re: Town Leadership
i'd be more than happy to begin a job board, however I cannot post any jobs unless I am informed of them. as of late there has been a lack of communication with the town and if I start a job board I will be personally policing it to ensure to the minimum that there are no obvious traps.....no guarantees, but no random people will be putting things on it.

Seems to me that it should be the Constable or as she is well unable to perform that particular duty due to her pending child's birth then it would fall to the Mayor. So, Ziggy's our man in charge. Tell us more about this... what did you call it a job board? I'm not too good on the reading and such.

Wouldn't that fall to the Capt of the Guard before the Mayor

Re: Town Leadership
I would, as Captain of the Town Guard, be willing to moderate the board, but like our Mayor mentions I fear it being used as a springboard for traps, but instead of disallowing anyone from posting things I think posted jobs should be stamped, be it from the postee talking to the proctor(s) or whathave you, by the proctor(s) of the board to mark the job as one less likely to end up a trap. This way anyone can post but people who take the jobs know, within the best of what the proctor(s) can verify and feel safe, what they are getting themselves into.
I also feel the job board would be best run by a group of 'whos', and not by one 'who'.
Many hands make light work, and this allows jobs to be posted/stamped quicker and easier depending on the system employed.
I vote the heads of the four Houses, the Mayor, the Constable, and in her absence or if she so chooses the responsibility to fall to the Captain of the Guard as well- Myself.

Re: Town Leadership
well, at this point, i believe it may be important to point out that any decision made would not be valid until such time as the town council decides to reconvene or edicts are passed down from higher authorities.
so before everybody goes all up in arms about who gets to be in charge of the bit of wood with bills on it, grab the opinion of the current council.

The problem is you people talk too damn much but don't say anything.

Re: Town Leadership
The job board is a neat idea, but I was thinking a centeral person who would collect missions and round up people to send them on the mission. A person to kick towns folk in the pants to make sure the work is getting done.

*Res rolls his eyes, then raises up his glass*
Here's to more meetings!
*He takes a pull *
You know i think this town is going to turn me into an alcoholic...
*He shakes his head*
You all need a strong, decisive leader. Someone with balls... like the head of Devris.
The problem , as I see it, is when someone comes needing help you all mull around and talk the issue to death. Or you talk until someone dies. Usually of boredom.
Sorry but more meetings is the last thing you need. Here's what you do... find someone with gigantic steel balls that knows how to get shit done and put him in charge.
*Res takes a second sip from his glass and shrugs*
Someone besides me that is. I used to do that kind of thing, but it was a former life. Tell you what though, if you need help finding someone suitable, I'm more than willing to help ya for a fee.
