The ISC Wants You!

The ISC decided to expand its member list to 11 members, so we're recruiting three more members, if you want to be a member of the exclusive club and help us decide on simlympic issues and contribute more to the community, sign up here.

Members are expected to put time in the ISC and contribute something to the ISC and not just voting on the next host for the Simlympic.

Any member who wants to bid for a position, please list your resume, CJ if you have one (not required to have one), list any skill you have, or comment on what you would do or why you want to be on the ISC. A simple "I'll bid" won't do.

Thanks.

I defiantly want in, my CJ is here (and more frequently updated on the AIN site)

As for my resume to join the ISC

-The point system and the increased number of events was a plan I submitted to the ISC, the modern Simlympics was my idea

-I've been a bidder in the October games, and I was going to make a run at the first winter games but time restraints hurt me

-I have been an avid poster on the discussion of what makes a good simlympic green and I think my idea's are consistent with the simlympics goals to be more realistic with each passing game.

Cheers Kumba, we're being more open this time as our previous more private selection process seemed to ruffle a few feathers last time.

Thanks for the application dljfrn .

I would like to apply.


About me:
-I am very active at Simsports, AIN, and Simtropolis. I look each of the sites about three times every hour. I have RSS on my iTouch to see new updates and posts on all three sites.
-I have been a member since August and hasn't been inactive since(atleast i think)
-I am very flexible, so I can do pretty much anything for the community
-I tend to revive "dead" threads such as the forum games.

Experiences:
-had bidded for the december games
-has contributed to simlympic discussions
-has successfully hosted the first AIN Summit
-hosted Petrolympics, and the Miss SimUniverse Competition
-I think I was the one to introduce the detailed scores at the winter simlympics as seen from the December Petrolympics (But if someone had thought of the idea before november 2008, then please correct me)

And it has been a dream of mine to be a part of an international committee like the IOC or the ISC

Resume
- I'm a very active member of SimSports, checking it at least 3 times a day
- I try to be nice and helpful with the members
- I've bidded for the December Games
- I have the experience of hosting the AIN Games, which is similar to the Simlympics
- I suggested the adding of more events, though it isn't my merit that they've been added
- I've always wanted to be a member of ISC
- I have created the AIN

One question : What can an ISC member do, except voting for the host ?

Thanks for the applications guys.

Good question Matt. One thing which I really must stress is that I'm transitioning the ISC from being just a group of people that meet up every few months to being the group of people that actually run the Simlympics. So for instance, knarfmo is heading up research and development; looking into ways to improve the Simlympics, through new sports and the like.

Every ISC member currently has a role, and the new members will get their own role too, examples of current roles 'Head of R&D', 'ISC-Host Liasion', 'Head of Promotion' etc etc. Hope that helps .

I'd like to make a point if its ok, (all applying members are AIN members and potentially admins (and Matt who came up with it) at that site)

AIN owns

I would also like to Apply!

I can identify flaws and provide feedback and solutions for various systems.
e.g. PAS fine-tuning.

I have already experienced Slacker's last-minute-itis, and beaten it.
All those Simlympic banners, sport headings, medals, results formatting etc. only took a couple of days.

I *haven't* bid/hosted any previous SimGames, which may be useful for a different perspective.

I have no Union affiliations/agendas.

I have a CJ, Greater Arthuria, which mitsos really likes.

Random question but what is Duke of Ed?

was thinking the same thing

It's the Duke of Edinburgh's Award

Duke of Edinburgh looks like a great idea. I'm shocked that in the US, only Texas is doing it. Texas!

lol - i dunno why i even mentioned it - got over exicted on the form. (Mainly referring to the press-up one which made me sound like a stupid jock

Thanks for all the applications guys.

We've got more than enough now, we're going to discuss the last few applications then put it to the vote - hopefully announcing the 3 new members Sunday/Monday.

Oooh can't wait

7 minutes .
