2. Voting member Sign-in - sign in by voting for any of the options

[Lyle Craver]

To vote in the meeting you need to sign in to the meeting. Since the vBulletin software this meeting runs on works by "votes" and since the software does not allow a vote with only one option our practice is to hold a "vote" where casting a vote for any one of the options is considered to be the equivalent of saying "present". These poll questions are light, hopefully interesting and chess related and are absolutely not used by the national executive for determining policy. They are also intended to quickly get new Assembly members up to speed on voting in this software system.

Note on the agenda: it regularly refers to events by day rather than by date.

Which means day 1: Sunday Sept 11
day 2: Monday Sept 12
day 3: Tuesday Sept 13 (note: end of nominations and start of elections)
day 4: Wednesday Sept 14
day 5: Thursday Sept 15
day 6: Friday Sept 16
day 7: Saturday Sept 17 (close of elections, announcement of results)
day 8: Sunday Sept 18 (close of meeting and all threads)

This poll seems is anonymous. While Outgoing is public.

That's a typo on my part and at this point the best I can do is publish the results at meeting end since trying to change that flag would mean restarting the vote.

Apologies to all of you - LC
