We debated (pun intended) on whether we should include this podcast as part of our regular episode canon as it is indeed a special show, and totally different from anything we’ve done so far. For starters we had a strict structure which we meticulously followed, we were dead serious (though a fedo joke made it into the show somehow), we were not high on spiked Quafe and for a change we didn’t do the talking. Instead, in this show we welcomed four CSM candidates to take a stand, answer a dozen questions we asked, then debate with each other and finally answered questions by the listeners.
Candidates, Helen Highwater, Mike Azariah, Song Li and TeaDaze presented their platform and their case and even though the decision of who made the biggest impression is yours to make, we got ourselves 4 quality candidates that put us in a four way dilemma about who deserves our precious vote.
We are glad to see that this first debate drew enough interest, players and candidates alike as it promotes the CSM concept and therefore we’ll run a series of debates and get as many candidates as possible on-air to share their views with you and give you a better image on their personalities and their platform.
Please, after listening don’t forget to vote on our poll on who shined through this Debate.

Indeed – Helen Highwater (with one “L”) is running for CSM! Glad we cleared this out

Really enjoyed this show, the candidates all sound very reasonable and most importantly like they would take their role as a CSM delegate seriously. Didn’t change my vote, but much respect to all of them for participating!

Just wanted to say thank you for doing this CSM panel. You two did sound much mire professional. It was a little weird.
The questions you developed for round 2 were great.
Hope you can get another set of canidates in.
And yes listening to this has made me rethink my choice.

Great show guys!
Spectre gets excluded from the CSM for such a little thing and yet Liiza Valora, the most infamous griefer in EVE, gets to be on the ballot?
How many complaint petitions have been put in Spectre and how many for Spectre. I am willing to bet that for every 1 that went in for Spectre there are 100 for Liiza Valora.
