Nothing in this section shall prevent the Board of Trustees from making changes of less than six months in the term of office of a class of elected Trustees in order to accommodate changes in the date at which Trustees are elected, nor shall anything in this section require a class of Trustees to cease serving before their successor class has been elected.

OOC INFORMATION UNDER THE CUT !

this task is optional and only applies to those who plan on running for a position ( president, vice president, treasurer, and secretary ) on the executive board of diadem imperium. however, everyone is expected to participate in the poll we’ll be posting for the election even if you choose to abstain. if your muse plans to run for a leadership position, please send an im to the main as we’ll be keeping a list and eventually making a poll once all of the speeches have been posted. as for the speeches ( the main portion of this task ), please post the speech that you would like everyone to read no later than march 10th at 1pm est ( 10am pst and 6pm gmt ) and use the tag divinity:task01 ( no period ). there aren’t really many rules or specifications of what should or shouldn’t be included within the speech, but these speeches are in a way going to decide whether or not your muse is (re)elected. following all of the speeches being posted, we will be posting a poll for each position on march 11th ( also at 1pm est ) which you will vote in for the next elected office. the results will be hidden and will be announced during en event / later time we have planned coming soon so get hype ! if you need any clarification as to what the task pertains, feel free to message the main or any of the admins on discord.
