(I will re-post this again when we get closer to November 22nd.)

So, this is what happens when your vacation plans are finalized after you agree to be the Election Coordinator… I will be on a vacation from November 22 to December 1, but I will have access to the internet during most of that time.

Unless stated otherwise by me in this post or in a later post, I will not on an LOA during that time in my capacity as Election Coordinator. I still plan on checking in daily - usually multiple times a day - to ensure there is are no issues with the election during that week.

I will be on an LOA for the purposes of my role-playing characters and my other STF administrative work (it is a vacation after all). In order to avoid confusion for my fellow players and the cadets I mentor and role-play with, my Member Profile will state that I am on an LOA during that time, but my LOA message will state that my LOA does not apply to my role as Election Coordinator.

I will be on an airplane on November 22, so my availability on that day is limited. Therefore, if an issue comes up on November 22nd that cannot wait a day, Emily S. will address the issue.

I will also be on an airplane on December 1, but there is nothing going on that day that will require the attention of the Election Coordinator. I will ensure sufficient hilarity is still planned for the new President that day.

Thank you everyone for your cooperation.

Daniel Lerner
Election Coordinator
