[CamRI] DST Question and Answer and Voting Phase

[Phil Armstrong]

Afternoon everyone,

I am pleased to announce that we two candidate for VST. It is James A
Ruggiero and Herbert Hicks. I would now like to move onto phase two, which
is the Q&A
as well as Voting Phase. Members of the Domain are invited to
ask questions of their candidates, and may do so on this forum. The Q&A
phase will end on February 12, Noon, EST.   Votes should be sent to
myself (Beckett151 @ Gmail.com) and to the RST Matt Pester (
northeastrst at gmail.com)
Please Label your votes as election





Vision statement:

Well true believers, we are once again at that pivotal point of the DST
elections and I find myself compelled to run for the position. Structurally
not much has changed and ironically my first Mage VST Seth has returned to
the reigns and I remember a very positive working relationship.

I've looked back on the evolution of our domain. The influx and exodus of
members, the plots that have succeeded and those that have failed. What I
have noticed most is Providence likes dark, likes strange, and likes it BIG.
Because of this I will be taking story arcs away from inner politics that
should be driven by PCs. Instead I will be focusing on clear and present
danger.  There will still be hard decisions to make but one of the chief
complaints I have heard and expressed is it seems so hard to see what's
going on.

Don't get me wrong, there will still be machinations, sub plotting, and
backstabbing but the plot bus is going to have its high beams on because its
sure just got dark. These "plots" will never come uninvited and will always
defer to what the VST might have in mind but they will make a clear
connection that we play in a *world* of darkness.

The world of darkness is suppose to be more corrupt and gritty than the real
world and in Providence that's a tall order to ramp up. To accomplish this I
will be giving the city a decaying heart... much like its political
structure. I will be taking inspiration from Stephen King, Batman Dark
Knight, and filter it with a little Lovecraft. A theme in many myths is the
delving too deeply brings consequences. I will be supply temptation and
consequence. Some good; some bad; and some down right creepy.



Resume the short form:

I could give you this monstrously complicated business like resume that you
will gloss over; instead here's the basics.

I have been ST-ing in the cam for the last 8 years. These positions have
usually been local but I have been on allot of smaller panels and even an
aamst for a while in YoF.

I have a strong network in the cam; and a working relation ship with the
local and regional staff.

You who are voting have all known my work first hand and I will let it speak
for itself.

Thank you,

James A Ruggiero

Vision Statement :

    I believe that in order to survive as a domain we need to mix in new
blood with our current players. I think that we need to get a new fresh look
at storylines in our venues. In order to do this I would like to work with
our DC and possibly branch out into conventions or get our website's forums
back in order and more active. I would also like to make sure all of the
newest rules put out are understood and implemented. A lot of people have
wanted Cross-venue events to happen so I will try to talk to each VST and
see how we can make this a possibility in the near future.
