[treacherous_widow]

So, now that the committee groups have been announced and we're done murdering each other, I have a few thing that need to be brought to the attention to the rest of you.

[Blackarachnia doesn't do sympathy. Get used to it.]

First, I'm on the bureaucracy group and  that means I need to talk to the other person on the list. A human child named Miko. Which also brings me to the next order of business. It seems that some people have expressed concerns about a few members of  the committee  and it's up to me to arrange a vote or two to deal with the issues..

First,  whether or not  human children should be allowed on the committee. I just want a yes or a no. I don't care for your reasons. I just need a yes or a no from everyone.  If you don't vote, whatever. You're choice.

Second, there have been concerns about Tarn being on the committee. Again, simple vote. Yes or No. I don't care about your reason.If you're worried, just make your vote private.  Whatever. I'm just the person arranging the votes on things brought up to me. It's  your job to decide.

Otherwise, lets try not to slag each other for awhile.

....I think I'm going to be needing that upgrade soon.

What is a "human child" considered? Up to what age are they a child? I think this designation should be made first. Depending on the age group, a few years can matter a significant amount.

[ Saber figures an eighteen year old would be much capable than a sixteen year old, usually, but.. ]

And I agree Tarn should not be on the committee. With how many people are bringing up previous concerns with him, it is not something we should ignore.

Re: ( video )

[treacherous_widow]

I don't, what age does a human stop being a child? I haven't had much experience with your young. So, I really wouldn't mind a little enlightenment on that.

[People should really clue in the widow about humans and their ages. Otherwise, she's making a mental note on Saber's answer about Tarn. Personally, Blackarachnia's hoping for a lot of no's. She's just smart enough not to say anything about it.]

I've heard there are some concerns, just not about what.

[Though she can definitely guess.]

[mccrane]

I understand the concern.

My vote is yes for children over 12, and no for Tarn.

[Considering he's been talking with Pharma, it worries him.]

[treacherous_widow]

Got it.

Thanks.

[video]

[rednotbluethx]

Yes, keep Tarn! No, execute the kids! Er, fire the kids.

Re: [video]

[treacherous_widow]

..We're not executing anyone. Or setting anything on fire.

[Video]

[furryfarkinfiend]

Kids might as well learn some farkin' time, so I say let them on.

As for that Tarn guy...No farkin' way.

[Rocket thinks everyone's being stupid for letting the guy on the committee, considering the things he's heard about him.]

Re: [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

[She makes another note on a data pad and nods.]

Got it.

[raceme]

Congrats for your new position, Blackarachnia.

Like McCrane, my vote is 'yes' for organics over 12 years old and 'no' for Tarn.

[treacherous_widow]

Thanks Blurr. Lets just hope I can manage this on top of my pet projects.

[She nods and marks down his votes.]

And your votes are noted, Thanks.

[locked | Unhackable]

[deadlydoctor]

There's nothing more attractive than a smart lady in charge.

I rather not have an immature organic takign important decisions so my vote is NO for Miko. [He has other reason to say no, but let's go with 'immature' for now.]

I prefer not to vote at all about the issue with Tarn.

Re: [locked | Unhackable]

[treacherous_widow]

Oh yeah? I'd say there's nothing more handsome than a good looking doctor~.

[She marks down his vote on the organic issue and pauses for a moment.]

Miko isn't the only one included in that vote, so why against her? [Consider her curious and she's not going to ask about his reasons about the Tarn vote.]

[Video]

[neverputincharge]

Since Miko's my kid, I dunno if it'd be fair fer me ta vote for her ta stay or go.

As for Tarn, I don't know him personally, but from what I heard, I gotta vote no for him.

Re: [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

...Miko belongs to you? How does that work.

[And she's taking note about the subject he did vote on.]

[video]

[fun_police]

No for children, and No for Tarn.

[He's trying real hard to keep a straight face while he says this because really?]

[Really. If any of these two get a yes, he'll..]

[Well. He can't complain if he doesn't vote.]

Re: [video]

[treacherous_widow]

[She just arches an optic ridge slightly. Blackarachnia's not.. going to ask.]

Got it.

[Video]

[symmetriphiliac]

It would be foolish to discount an individual based solely on their age. If someone is qualified and able to help, they should be allowed to.

( not actually responding. )

[pendragon]

[ It's not like Saber to eavesdrop on conversations, but she is quite interested in the votes people have for the age requirement.

So have Saber listening and watching Kid's statement, and a slight widening of her eyes.

This statement of Kid's is very true, too; however, the question was of age, not really of qualification. But, if one is on the law committee, they would be considered qualified already..

The knight won't retract her vote, but she's aware that the count is against the 'no' already. ..After all, hadn't she lead a country from the ages of fourteen to twenty-four, herself? ]

(( OOC: Sorry for spamming up your thread, Kid-mun, but this post was exactly what I was looking for to make Saber realize what she was saying in her vote! ))

[Video]

[tearsofsteel]

Already have a problem with Kay as is.

In my opinion? I don't think kids should be involved with any of the committee business.

Mark me up for a no on Tarn as well.

[Albert does not mince words.]

Re: [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

Got it.

[needlefingers]

Hmm, well I'm not on the committee but...

I'd vote no for the children and yes for Tarn.

[No don't ask him about the Yes.]

THREADJACKING IF THIS IS OKAY

[flashdrive]

...Chromedome.

I'm giving you five seconds to explain.

[aerospacecommander]

Why don't we just let the committee be run by sea slugs?

[treacherous_widow]

Because there aren't any sea slugs here you moron.

audio;

[namesnotprowl]

Yes t'the kid. She's clever and at least deserves a chance, if she's willing.

No to Tarn. [He doesn't know the mech personally, but with how scared Ambulon was about that Wikireader getting into his hands... he seems like bad news.]

Re: audio;

[treacherous_widow]

Got it. Thanks for the vote.

[4_toteachus]

I have no particular opinion on human children, so I will vote yes. For Tarn, I would like to vote yes too.

Mind if I ask how one gets on the Law Committee?

[treacherous_widow]

Huh. Alright then.

Simple. Go fill out an application.

[audio]

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

'Yes' for the kids, I suppose, absolute 'no' for Tarn.

Re: [audio]

[treacherous_widow]

Got it.

[Audio]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

As his public relations manager, I will have to vote yes for Jean Claude Van Tarn.

Re: [Audio]

[treacherous_widow]

[... There's silence for a very, very long moment before she even tries to speak. Just... what the hell.]

...Right. A vote for Tarn.

[Video]

[heytheresugarbot]

Didn' know you were so important Sugarbot!

[Oh hey it's this guy.]

You sound mighty lovely when yer bein' all authoritative and stuff!

Re: [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

You could say that.

[Oh it's you. She's going to want to yell at you later.]

Do I Quickstrike~? I wouldn't have guessed you had a thing for a girl in charge.

[dirge]

I vote for children to be eaten. And Tarn to be on the law thing. [See? He's a good minion.]

[treacherous_widow]

...I'm just going to put you down as 'no' on the child issue.

Private

[songofmypeople]

The organics get a 'no' from me.

As for my position on my position, well, I imagine you know how I'll cast that.

Private

[treacherous_widow]

I think I can guess.

[Video]

[ichooseboth]

[Don't want reasons? When has anything like that stopped Optimus Prime from giving a speech?]

I have no issues with the human children's involvement. They had to fill out the same application as the rest of us and should have a chance to prove their worth.

And while I would prefer not to be 'biased', given the general reactions- [Not to mention his own intelligence from home;] -Tarn's involvement in this committee seems increasingly ill-advised.

'Yes' for the children and 'no' for Tarn.

Re: [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

[She's not really surprised if Optimus Primal was anything to go by.]

Got it. Thanks for the vote.

[video]

[adamndoctor]

'No' for the kids, and 'no' for Tarn. [Short, sweet, and simple.]

Re: [video]

[treacherous_widow]

Got it.

[skidaddle]

Okay.

I'm going to go out on a limb here.

'Yes' for everyone.

[He gets the idea for caution...he does! But he wants to see how they do in office before kicking them out of it.]

[treacherous_widow]

[He could have mentioned that earlier and saved her a headache.]

Got it.

[heavymetalgenkigirl]

Hey, you want to speak to me?

While I may not be allowed to vote for this because of who I am specifically, but I think anyone who is accepted by application should be allowed on the committee, human children or even people who have had concerns expressed about them, until they show they can't or don't do the job needed.

[treacherous_widow]

Yeah, you're supposed to be doing this voting thing with me.

[Don't worry, she's actually listening and slightly agreeing a little.]

And who says you can't vote. I'm saying yes, you can. Besides, there are technically no rules set in place for voting yet.

Private Message

[heavymetalgenkigirl]

((OOC I hope it's alright if I just pop this in here rather than starting something new now.))

So I didn't know what to do about ones where people didn't exactly answer, so I left out the score on them, cause I don't want to do it wrong by influencing the votes.

For the kids on the committee issue I got nine in favor and six disagreeing.

For Tarn on the committee issue I got eight in favor and twelve disagreeing.

Re: Private Message

[treacherous_widow]

Good. That makes my life easier.

[She double checks what the girl got with the ones that were private adds those in.]

It looks close so far.
