I didn't really vote based on views matching. That is, I wanted somebody to see EVE reasonably close to how I do, but the ability to communicate and cooperate mattered at least as much.

So, for the last two elections, I've supported TeaDaze. Happy with my choice.

OT: Can't say I'm sad about the news. Never cared about Ankh's ideas and/or whining.

After having read the meeting minutes, it is fairly obvious that Ankh is in game design, as her presentation was the only one that seemed to have all of its ducks in a row based on the breakdown of topics. The rest had the action points of "CSM Will collect X information and submit to CCP" where "X Information" is shit they should have had to begin with.

And also why CSM is useless.

Trebor is/was also in the game business. His platform was good, but ultimately might be outside the scope of the CSM as well as being something CCP well knows, but with no new answers to the problem (break up blobs). Haven't read the minutes of regular CSM meetings to see if he has a clue on EVE.

From what I read his presentation was very good but had no answers, only "These are all problems that need to be addressed", and didn't appear (the minutes weren't incredibly detailed) to have a good list of what balance issues were really major issues.

I don't expect the CSM to have real answers, other than maybe a pass at an idea. They don't have to be professional game developers, of course, any more than we need to be professional SF writers to know that The Empyrean Age was a steaming turd. The real value in thinking about solutions is to prevent unadulterated whinefests without having given serious thought to the causes of the problem. For the most part, CSMs strike me as having given problems the thought they deserve.

Stakeholders should provide input on general direction and validation of plans, not specific and overly detailed design docs.
