Trade Committee

Maybe we should create a topic for each member to submit their name to be nominated?  I don't if a member would like being nominated for a job he might not want to do. 

I can do it.

Okay, so who will be on the TC for 2010?

As noted in the transactions forum, the RC will serve as the TC for the remainder of the off-season.  We will nominate (per their acceptance) other GMs to be on the TC in January.

Maybe a good option would be to have the owners nominated by Colby serve during this off-season, and then before next season starts we'll elect the TC (which must consist of non RC owners).  Then we'll have a much better sample to work from when electing owners.

My man Ben, meeting halfway.    I'll agree with this proposal.

I'll agree to this also.  I would enjoy being on the TC, but we should keep the two branches separate.  However, it is my belief that we have yet to establish 5 trusted members to the TC, if we are to look for members outside the RC.  Some are active and on the right track though.  So I propose that the RC vote on TC members.  A majority vote (4) will be required to allow a member to be a part of the TC.  Failure to uphold proper judgement while being on the TC may result in the RC calling for a vote of termination from the TC, or, if bad enough, the league.

I would certainly be willing to serve on the TC, but already serving on the RC (which I prefer) perhaps someone else should have the opportunity (separation of powers between Legislative and Judicial  ).

And I'll agree with you, Ben, on the fact of using a league wide vote only as a last resort.  But it is best to include it, we do not want anyone that is not a member of the RC or TC to feel cheated by not having a say in such matters at any point during the process.

Speaking of which. Please let me know if I can help as well.

Good idea Jon, but as Ben mentioned, thus far, we generally prefer transparency in the game.
