I think I could do the bare minimum of an ADoP report within 60-90m per week by hand. Automation mainly adds some nice-to-haves that aren't required by the rules (report content, as well as making it vastly simpler to compile recap data for periodic awards).

I suggest we treat this the same way as the list of judges and peer-reviewers (perhaps more of the latter). Which means: some discretion on behalf of the ADoP (obvious officer choice), but using some ad-hoc publicly known method to distribute delegations. So, in this case, every player would have ample time before-hand to express which offices they'd be interested in experimenting, and we can collectively ensure a fair selection. Plus: this also would gauge the potential for officer change. -- juan

I think it would be actively bad to promote high turnover for Rulekeepor in particular (and, if CotC was official, it as well). Doing it requires knowing a lot of specifics, it's error-prone (god I made so many errors starting off), and having consistent records is very important (the current data format dates back to Alexis, even if the program itself has been rewritten several times). -- Janet Cobb Assessor, Rulekeepor, Stonemason

This will be case-by-case for each and every office. There's often things we can do, like simplifying formulas, or given officers more discretion (which is not intended to be elitism, it's intended to streamline things because impartial processes that give everyone input take time by definition), splitting offices into multiple parts, etc. Ideally, I think, everything is doable with automation. In practice tho, I'm not sure what that looks like. Managing the rules, for instance, is pretty complex. I'm not really sure what can be done to simplify that besides automation, or at least revision control to trace mistakes. I don't suspect google sheets will solve that either. I guess the other option there is literally simplifying the rules collectively so there's less to manage. Bots and external tools have been discussed many times, they have pros and cons. For a bot, someone has to maintain it, and update it every time we update the rules it interacts with (so possibly weekly). That's maybe less work for me and you, but not less work for its maintainer. Solutions need to be certain they're actually reducing work and not just shuffling it around/hiding it. -- nix Prime Minister, Herald

Maybe a mailbot that you can access through the fora like a command prompt?

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: [Proposal] Delegation
While I was supportive of the delegation idea on discord, I’m coming around to Yachay’s position. I’ve “taken breaks” from arbitor regularly - snail and Jason both did the job for a bit last year - but when it was technically resigning without the expectation of getting the job back I think it felt a bit healthier for the game than this would. That said, there’s a difference between jobs that will find temporary takers and ones almost no one will take on for a short time (rulekeepor is like that, or at least has been historically) Maybe making the delegation subject to a public volunteer process - so it’s treated differently if more than one person want the job, so the hand-picking potential is more limited?

Perhaps a "bench" system like in team sports, where there is a main officer, but if they can't do their roles, or want to take a vacation, the person on the bench takes the spot until they come back.

With due respect, this is a newer player perspective. Some roles (mostly rulekeepor, assessor, arbitor) tend to stay with the same player for several years.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: [Proposal] Delegation
It's actually the opposite: right now we HAVE dynasties of players who just
have had these roles forever, and they've never taken a break. Encouraging
them to take a break, and specifying a different player, forces more
change-ups than we have currently, because we trust so much currently in
the incumbents.
Essentially, it would be more of a "hey do you want to try this role, see
if you would be any good at it? I need a break from being the
Rulekeepor/Assessor/etc for since FOREVER."
I can see where that meaning comes across... but the part that really comes
across in this rule is the "SHOULD" take a vacation. (EG Janet has had eir
roles for a long long time, and the prior rulekeepor had had it for like 8
years or something, so this encourages shakeup.)
The other part of this is: Janet is Rulekeepor purely because no one has
bothered to try to take the position properly. The Elections are meant to
encourage shakeups, but without sufficient platforms for change, then we
shalln't have the change, since Agora does not like change, despite being
open to it. :)
This just means that a player can now just "screw off" for their vacation
and not worry about eir role when they come back. And if the delegate does
a good enough job, that puts them in an even stronger position to overthrow
the incumbent.
