Kurt Rongey for symphonic

I have no problems with the team going ahead and adding the band while I was sleeping the angel's sleep, Dean. In fact, I was very pleased with the team. I got a massive amount of respect for Atomic and Ivan and trust them to do the right thing(s). I did get the eval files and added my Yes later on.

In any case; this is irrellevant. We only need two votes to get an addition through. Which we got in this case. So the maths is spot on here. 2 votes is an addition.   

So if a team member is being run over by a bus and obviously is not able to communicate this to the rest of the team from a morgue, ProgArchives cannot function in other words and breaks down ? 

Please clarify if the Admins has imposed a ban on the Symph Prog team members from passing away.

Dean wrote: You're a real funny guy. Out of respect for the departed team member we would permit the team to function as best they could, assuming they where more intent on evaluating bands than mourning their colleague. Obviously the team would need to find a replacement as soon as is practical.

How would you know if the team member had departed ? For all Ivan and Atom knew, I was dead, indisposed or simply abstaining from voting when the eval was done. 

  In any case; you have known about our voting rules now since I joined the team months ago. You have seen us operating under this rule for the last ten additions. Why reacting now on the eleventh'ish addition ?   

I do not want a long debate going because I have interviews and reviews to add.  

.......rules the team has followed in this case to every letter and dots because the Team does not know if the third team member is dead, indisposed or abstaining. 

And a happy Sunday morning to you too.

I think Dean is alluding to the prospect of introducing this in all the teams and for the rest of the team & the Admins to enjoy things like watching this 

The rule btw says:

4.1.1 Three-man team = 2 Yes votes, 0 No votes

0 No votes normally means the 3rd member is either dead or indisposed (holiday, work, at sleep etc etc etc). Scott and Ivan was acting correctly according to this rule.

I would also allude Dean to the many cleared but not added bands now in the teams. I think that is a big problem which should be adressed by everyone. 

My point is that an accidental or a deliberate 0 vote means the 2 team members does have access to the 3rd member.  We are not sitting in a room together and the two other members does not have any means to understand if the 0 vote is down to death or the team member just being temporary indisposed. While we establish the status of the third member, the team will be frozen, disabled and out of business and ProgArchives disabled from offering a good service.    

That is my whole point here. Scott and Ivan was right.
