Voting Cycle 24

June 27 - July 10: Mission Request Creation and Representative Onboarding :dart: :

The first two weeks are for setting the Foundations for Season 6

  • Onboarding! The Following Representative Structures were renewed for Season 6. Members will spend the first Voting Cycle Onboarding to understand their structure’s processes and goals.

  • Mission Request Creation: Members of the Grants Council and Collective Feedback Commission will draft Mission Requests, using the guide provided here and referencing Suggested Mission Requests.

    • If you have any idea for the Grants Council, you can suggest it here and any member may choose to sponsor it!

    • All Mission Request drafts must be posted to the forum by July 8th at 19:00 GMT. The CFC and the GC will then determine a suggested rank order to propose to delegates.

Delegate approvals are not required for Mission Requests in Season 6. We do not expect any other proposals to go to a vote in Voting Cycle #24.
