Well that would require a rules change. But Robert's Rules of Order specifically states that if proxy voting is to be used, that must be determined very early in the process. Otherwise, a voter can call for proxies at the last minute to effect the result. It's very strict about proxies.

UT, Does Robert's Rules say anything about disqualification from being nominated?

No it only covers how meetings operate in general, how deliberative bodies deliberate, that sort of thing.

I think this line's mostly filler.

I accept if it is possible to do a good job without consistent email access. If not, then I think there's already a pretty good pool of nominees.

How do deliberative bodies deliberate? Deliberately.

I accepted, but did admit that I would be largely unavailable to do a good job for a couple of weeks, so I should probably continue to be left off the list. There's plenty of good ones there anyway.

I really don't think you need the email prompting; one could just get away with deleting spam on reading the new posts, and still be a good mod. We're not that deluged (yet)

No offense taken. If I wasn't going to be gone to festival/funeral for the next ten or twelve days, I'd love to participate. It was an honor to be nominated.

Don't take him off the ballot, I'm gonna vote for him. We can hold our breath for 12 days. Small price to pay.

I would be happy to serve as a substitute when needed.
If somebody is going to be offline for a while they could let me know and I would be happy to fill in for them.
