[Grogospeak] TNQ Officer Elections - Next Saturday at 1 pm

[Samuel Thompson]

Hello all,

Don't forget to come to the meeting this Saturday at 1pm for Technique
elections.  Food will be provided as always.

Here's a short run-down about the election process:

   - The list of positions will be posted and nominations will be made for
   those positions (most people self-nominate).
   - We will go down the list one by one, and the candidates will give a
   very very short blurb about why they are interested in the position, and why
   we should elect them.
   - The candidates will leave the room, there will be a short period of
   discussion, and then manboard will vote.
   - Rinse and repeat for all positions and you get Manboard ver. 2.01.1!


We look forward to seeing everyone there!

Samuel
