Mephiston has recently decided to become our erstwhile NetERC Rules Chair, stepping down due to work getting in the way of his NetERC time commitments. We are therefor reaching out to the community to see who is interested in filling the vacancy. Please PM me by 3/22 00:00 GMT with your interest and some thoughts on why you think you are suited for the role. The description of the chair position is below. Their main task in the next two months will be a FAQ review/update.

Quote:
The Rule Development and FAQs member deals with the core rules, which are any Epic Armageddon game rules not concerned with specific army lists or a specific tournament situation. Broadly speaking this encompasses the first four sections of the rule book. Any army list special rules that has been promoted to general special ability is transferred to their remit. In addition, they are the head of the “Rules Team”, a group of active forum members they appoint to help answer questions and clarify the game rules. Finally, they act as a second for the Tournaments, Events, Campaigns and Supplements member when they are absent and a decision must be made.

A point to the community - there have been on and off comments about how the selection process is an "old boy's network" and the people in these so-called "positions of power" only choose who they want and we need "fresh blood" and so on. But consider this - when the rubber hits the road (like now) we get very few people to nominate themselves for consideration.

If you know the rules well and you are on here five or more days out of the week (which many of you are), congrats. You have the knowledge base and certainly the time.

I can agree with most of your post Mosc but I would say that the Rules Member might have to be beyond the normal 5 days week plus above average knowledge. Personally its the one ERC Spot I wouldn't feel comfortable doing.

There are folks out here who are more than capable, who spend plenty of time on the forums, who never volunteer. I'm not putting any names forward, just sayin'.

Just over a day left so I'm bumping this to catch people's attention one more time.

As an additional threat - if no-one else volunteers, I will, and I've never played a game.

Unless you want that hovering over you, put your cards on the table.

i would, except i dont know how much time i have spare over the next while to do an FAQ update, and my view on the rules seems to not be the same as everyone elses (even if i am right :P) just take the aircraft barging/overwatch arguement earlier...

Well the successful applicant will have a small team of advisors/helpers to make the whole job easier (well at least Mephiston did and I'd hope that set-up continues as it was before).
