On behalf of Tony Mungo
Summary: This proposal which was brought forth by Minnesota and Seconded by Denver will reinstate the proposed 2.1 package previously proposed as the current rules candidate by ARC, and will extend all appropriate previous timelines regarding the beta testing period of 2.1 through Symposium of 2023. In addition it will add an incentive to the playerbase in the form of up to 6 DS per playtest event participated in once a player submits a feedback form after the event. The award will be split into 3 DS per section completed on a multipart feedback form run by ARC through the testing period. The data from the feedback form will be available to the Members (chapter owners) in anonymized fashion and ARC is strongly encouraged to provide the chapters guidance on if any specific parts require additional testing based upon the survey responses.
Vote: Reinstate 2.1 with new timelines, work direction for ARC, and incentives for the players [PASS]
The following chapters voted for this policy: Minnesota, Wyoming, Denver, Wisconsin, Las Vegas, Crossroads, Virginia, NEPA
The following chapters voted against this policy: Atlanta, Raleigh, Gettysburg, Chicago
Abstain: New Hampshire
Synopsis of conversations: The conversations surrounding the for side of this is that it would allow the chapters who did not take the opportunity to playtest a chance to participate, it would allow us to take the vote to symposium where we could sit and go through the entire packet together giving it the gravity it deserves, and it would give the owners insight into how players are viewing the package on a national scale. The conversations on the against side were focused on the timeline extension, that the test period was far too long to leave the game in a non-standard state, that there was no mandatory playtesting which was an obvious problem during this test period, and that there is likely to be a significant change of chapter ownership by the time we get to next symposium.
