I do announce that it is safe to say that since the debate has gone nowhere and all of the managers collectively agree that I should be the host of Christian HQ, it is my pleasure to start the transfer process with the Scratch Team. I would not expect anything to happen until fall, but until then it is up for the rest of the studio to decide who will be the Vice Host of Christian HQ.


I love you guys very much!
-Expo

there's something wrong here:

“debate has gone nowhere” yes because we haven't really gotten started yet?
“managers collectively agree” no, not all and not within writing, you cannot prove that we all said you should definitely have the Studio Host role of Christian HQ

also would like to say, wouldn't it be difficult for @-Expo to be long-term studio host as according to this comment thread: https://scratch.mit.edu/users/Bandit_MVR_2023/#comments-325099238 the curator list for him hasn't updated since 2022 and he'd repeatedly have to ask other managers to do so for him? wouldn't it be more sensible to have someone that can scroll down the entirety of the curator list? especially as sometimes we struggle with trolls and stuff like that.
of course i'm not saying the managers WOULDN'T be happy to help, i'm just suggesting that we could also put that under review?

the main idea of being a host is to change the description, closing comments down, and to preform tasks that we can't do. Adding managers provided they come shouldn't be too much of an ordeal. I'm also getting a more powerful computer after this, so when I come back in the summer I will see a detailed and current curator list.

… wdym “coming back in the summer”? How long are you going to be gone? And does this mean you are forfeiting?

Alright bandit. when was the last time you have proactive in the studio?

Well if you're not active until august, should I automatically become Host so we can speed up the process and start getting used to the idea of a host again, trial me as host and perhaps test out some vice hosts, and then make a permanent decision when you return?? i think making the studio wait for more decisions until august isnt really fair.

But also, there are only 2 people standing in the way of a more anticipated candidate, myself. I don't know how this is coming across because there is no possible way to discern tone on scratch, but 2 people vs. the rest of the studio is looking pretty slim to me. Suppose if I did not have such a demanding job I would have prepared more, but at the end of the day Scratch is nothing more than a website on the world wide web. Technically, if we agreed on majority rule in the preliminary stage, I would be able to say “(blank) is vice host until I return” but no, I like to keep things professional. we're butchering an already dead chicken so to speak

Also, if @-Expo is inactive every year for this period of time, that's quite a while for a Vice-Host to be in charge (not that I doubt anybody here in their capabilities). I do go away a bit, but not for long periods of time e.g. May to August or anything like that. You're very dedicated to your football, and that's excellent.

Bandit & Allen respectively.

We don't need to make any rash decisions- the host will be permanent for as long as we know so it's important to choose one wisely.
