Re: Members survey (cross posted from Yahoo)
The fields weren’t originally set that way, so I do apologize. I
think I’ve gotten most of them fixed. There are some questions that
were supposed to be required, but not all of them as they were showing. Also,
there were two questions on the survey that were not appearing for some reason. Additional
fields were also added to some questions based on suggestions from those who
have taken the survey and found that there was no way to convey what they
actually wanted to say. Carol Salemi also
made the suggestion of having a general comment field, so that has been added
at the end of the survey. If you’ve already taken the survey and would
like to retake it to answer the additional question or skip the questions that
were previously required, the spreadsheet will be sorted for duplicates by name
and time/date when the survey is done and use the one submitted with the later
date/time from any identified duplicates and delete the other row from the
spreadsheet.
Cordially,
Mera BabineauxOn

I
just want to say the following: That having filled out this survey,
there should ALWAYS be an option to leave a question blank, it is wrong to
require answers to all questions, as the answer may require more than the
YES/NO options usually given.

"Other
International Competition (SDCC, NYCC, DragonCon)"
Focusing purely on the U.S.A....again. International, always in our
name but rarely in our thoughts

I would love to see more actually
International stuff recognized. I don't understand why we aren't focusing on
some of the amazing things happening outside of the USA. Yes, SDCC, NYCC,
and DragonCon are major international events.
However, they are hardly the only ones.

"International, always in our name but
rarely in our thoughts" is so freaking accurate.
Dawn McKechnie 2 years ago
I only poke fun about it because it's
chronically in the language of things we discuss and produce. I just want
people to really think about having ICG docs, discussions, functions that keep
our supposed international nature in mind unless we are ready to admit that
we're the "American Costumers Guild & Friends."
Jacalyn Boggs 2 years ago
Yeah. It’s a fair complaint really. I know when I’ve
talked to people in other countries they have pointed out that we are quite
American-centric.

It's hard to poke fun without lighthearted
stickers.

Hey @Mera
Rose. I saw no objections to the expenditure of $100 to contract the services
of Maryland Non-Profits by 11/20 (last Wednesday). Has this been paid out
yet?

I sent it to Jeanine to have it paid and added to the budget last week but have
not received a response. I’ll follow up by email today.
Jacalyn Boggs 2 years ago
Excellent. Hopefully that's been paid out then.
I appreciate the swift response!

I get alerts. Lol. Cooking, but still around it needed.
Jacalyn Boggs 2 years ago
Yeah, well, it's always good to let people you
know you are appreciative of their work. Good luck cooking. I'm
recording videos for a greater bulk of the afternoon. How fun for me. LOL
Mera Rose 2 years ago
Jacalyn, it has not been paid out and is now the subject of new threads on the boardofdirectors channel that you can follow.
Jacalyn Boggs 2 years ago
I see that. I’m not sure I understand this problem, especially since it would
help with some of these motions.

If you are on the web, it is under the channel name. I’m not on my computer so
I can’t actually screen capture it for you.
Mera Rose 2 years ago
Are you on the app or the computer?
Jacalyn Boggs 2 years ago
@Byron Connell I just checked and you voted in all four polls. Thanks for
being so prompt and for trying to check! You are awesome. :)
Mera Rose 2 years ago
I can send you some screen captures of where to click in the future to find the
pins when I get back to my computer from the stove top if you’d like.
