Elected Council members will be the representatives of the players when decisions are needed to be made in the event.
1. The Council. The Council shall be composed of seven (7) people; two (2) of them from the Commissioners while five (5) shall be elected the Event Participants.
2. Suffrage. The Council are elected by the Event Participants through votes. Council members shall be determined by the formula *score = positive minus negative*. In other words, the score would be resolved by subtracting the positive and the negative votes. The five (5) highest scoring candidates would be appointed as Council.
3. Even the Odds. There shall be five (5) appointed Council members from the participants and any current Event Participant or those who have participated in previous seasons can be a candidate.
4. Unanimity. All decisions are done through a collective vote. The vote is determined by the majority (60% or 4 out of 7 council members). In every decision that is needed to be made, both the Commissioners and the Council needs to reach a consensus. All votes/opinions should be respected and no one shall be punished for presenting their case or opinions.
Commissioners and Council members has the same power when it comes to enacting decisions.
5. Check and Balance. Elected Council members has every right to question the decisions of the Commissioners. They also have the power to enact new policies, revoke, or change current policies if they reach a consensus.
6. Transparency. Elected Council members shall only use the #councils-only channel to discuss important matters. This is for all Council members to be informed and transparent in information about the event and to avoid confusion and illegal coup among the group.
7. First rule of Council Club. Everything that has been discussed in #councils-only shall only stay in that channel. Any leakage of information by any Council member would automatically result to punishment such as suspension or demotion.
8. Council members must be active. If a prolonged state of inactivity is to be expected on the part of the Council member, the individual should notify other members of the Council or one of the Commissioners of the expected length of absence to avoid being demoted for inactivity.
If a council member becomes inactive due to whatever reasons, then a PlazmaBurst 2 Staff may or may not substitute for the position for Council.
9. Demotion. Council members should follow the Plazma Burst 2 Code of Conduct, the #server-rules and the guidelines listed in #staff-guidelines. Any suspected disobedience of the said rules would result to an investigation by the Commissioners, fellow Council members, and the PB2 Staff.
As a jury, the Council members with the Commissioners shall commence a vote. If the majority voted to boot the suspected council members, then he shall be booted immediately.
However, if there is a clear and valid reason/proof/statement/evidence that they violated the rules, the PB2 Staff can intervene and demote them immediately with full transparency.
