nomination & election thread
If you'd like to nominate someone for the supreme leadership position on team SANCTA... Shogun... please post here.
You can also use this thread to call for elections, if you think the current Shogun needs to be replaced.
Here's the governing portion of our constitution, the TaoSAN:

TaoSAN II – The Art of Governance
...
3) The Shogun
- The Shogun shall be the head of the government and will play the save – however, the Shogun is obligated to follow the will of Team SANCTA to the best of his ability. In the event that no clear orders exist, or if there is confusion, or general lack of clear team will - the Shogun will have the final call and make the final decision.
- In the event of a planned absence, the Shogun may appoint any citizen he'd like to fill in for him while he is away.
- If the Shogun is unexpectedly absent, and there is less than 6 hours remaining on our team turn timer, then any of the Council of Three Daimyo are empowered to play the save as temporary Shogun. If less than 2 hours remain on the team turn-timer without word from the Shogun or any of the Daimyo, any citizen should take the mantel of temporary Shogun and play the save.
-The Shogun is obligated to post turn updates based on each save he plays to report to the team on what happened. These updates should be thorough to the best of the Shogun's ability. Screenshots are highly encouraged.

5) Elections
- Elections for the office of Shogun & The Council of Three may be called by any citizen at any time. (But no election for any single office shall be held within 1 month of a previous election for that same position). Any citizen of Team SANCTA may be nominated, or nominate themselves, for the position, provided they own BtS and can access the PitBoss server. The official election poll shall be a public poll open for 5 days. Winner of the majority vote shall immediately become the new the new Shogun (or Daimyo) upon the close of the poll.
- The sitting Shogun or any Daimyo may call for snap elections for their own position at any time, regardless of when the last election for their post was held. These snap election polls only need to be open for 1 to 3 days at the discretion of the official calling for the election, but they will not count against the "1 month waiting period" for normal citizen called elections.
