|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Enforcement Responsibilities
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Personnel Committee is responsible for clarifying and enforcing our
|
|
||||||
standards of acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective
|
|
||||||
action in response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening,
|
|
||||||
offensive, or harmful.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Personnel Committee has the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
|
|
||||||
reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, chat messages, and other
|
|
||||||
contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate
|
|
||||||
reasons for moderation decisions when appropriate.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This document is maintained by the Personnel Committee. Any change to
|
|
||||||
these guidelines must be announced immediately to the collective body.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Scope
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
|
|
||||||
Examples of representing our community include using an official email address,
|
|
||||||
posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
|
|
||||||
representative at an online or offline event.

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Enforcement
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

||||||
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All members of the Personnel Committee are obligated to respect the privacy and
|
|
||||||
security of the reporter of any incident.

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Enforcement Guidelines

Whereas we acknowledge the need for a consistent, unified creative
|
||||||
|
vision, the undersigned agree to establish the office of Project
|
||||||
|
Director as defined by the [terms](#terms) of this document.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Terms
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Scope
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. A Project Director is the creative director of a single project, and
|
||||||
|
not necessarily any other projects.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Each project may have no more than one creative director. A project
|
||||||
|
need not have a creative director.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. A Project Director may only be [elected](#election) as defined here.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. A Project Director's [role](#role) only applies to the project
|
||||||
|
which they direct. Likewise, a Project Director is only beholden to
|
||||||
|
the creative body of the project which they direct.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. The creative body of a project is the subset of members of the
|
||||||
|
Intrusive Thoughts collective who have agreed to work on the given
|
||||||
|
project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. A "project" here refers to a single game (or other piece of media) in
|
||||||
|
development. A game and its sequel are considered two different
|
||||||
|
projects.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Role
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. A Project Director makes decisions about the creative direction of
|
||||||
|
the project which they direct. All members of the creative body are
|
||||||
|
asked to abide by the creative decisions made by the Project
|
||||||
|
Director.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. While other members of the creative body will naturally make
|
||||||
|
creative decisions about the project in the course of their work,
|
||||||
|
any such decision may be overruled by the Project Director.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. The creative body may collectively reject any decision made by the
|
||||||
|
Project Director with a two-thirds supermajority veto.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Election
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Any member of the creative body may call for the election of a
|
||||||
|
Project Director at any time when the project has no acting Project
|
||||||
|
Director.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. After an election for Project Director is held, another election
|
||||||
|
may not be called for a period of three weeks, or until the
|
||||||
|
office has been vacated, whichever comes first.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. The election shall use
|
||||||
|
[ranked-choice voting with instant runoff](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting),
|
||||||
|
using an online platform so that every member of the creative body
|
||||||
|
may cast their vote regardless of physical location.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. We suggest using [RCV123](https://www.rcv123.org/election/open/create/1)
|
||||||
|
with the following configuration:
|
||||||
|
- Duplicate Vote Deterrence is ON
|
||||||
|
- Randomize candidate ballot order
|
||||||
|
- Start voting: when voters receive link
|
||||||
|
- End voting: election remains open
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. The election ballot shall be titled "Vote for the Director of
|
||||||
|
[project]" where [project] is the name or temporary name of the
|
||||||
|
project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. The candidates on the election ballot shall be the names of each
|
||||||
|
member of the project's creative body, plus an additional option of
|
||||||
|
"None" to indicate the preference that the office remain unfilled.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. The link to the election ballot shall immediately be posted to the
|
||||||
|
*#announcements* Discord channel.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. 48 hours after the ballot is made public, if at least 50% of the
|
||||||
|
creative body has voted in the election, then the winning candidate
|
||||||
|
shall immediately assume the office of Project Director.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Abdication
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. A Project Director may choose to abdicate the position of Project
|
||||||
|
Director at any time, for any reason, including no reason, by
|
||||||
|
posting a message in the *#announcements* channel announcing that
|
||||||
|
they are abdicating the position, after which the position of
|
||||||
|
Project Director shall immediately be considered vacated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. A Project Director shall automatically abdicate the position of
|
||||||
|
Project Director upon leaving (or being removed from) the project's
|
||||||
|
creative body and/or the Intrusive Thoughts collective.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Recall
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Any member of the creative body may call for the recall of the
|
||||||
|
acting Project Director at any time.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. After holding a recall vote for an acting Project Director,
|
||||||
|
another recall vote for that same Project Director may not be
|
||||||
|
called for a period of one week.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. The recall vote shall be a simple majority poll with two options,
|
||||||
|
using an online platform so that every member of the creative body
|
||||||
|
may cast their vote regardless of physical location.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. We suggest simply creating a poll in the *#announcements*
|
||||||
|
Discord channel with the following configuration:
|
||||||
|
- Poll duration: 48 hours
|
||||||
|
- Do NOT allow multiple answers.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. The poll's title shall be "Should [director] be recalled as
|
||||||
|
Director of [project]?" where [director] is the name of the acting
|
||||||
|
Project Director in question and [project] is the name of the
|
||||||
|
project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. The poll's options shall be "Yes, they should not be Director" and
|
||||||
|
"No, they should continue being Director". (Pronouns may be changed
|
||||||
|
to respect the director in question)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. The link to the poll (or the poll itself) shall immediately be
|
||||||
|
posted to the *#announcements* Discord channel.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. 48 hours after the poll is made public, if at least 60% of the
|
||||||
|
creative body (not just the voting body) has voted "Yes, they
|
||||||
|
should not be Director", then the acting Project Director in
|
||||||
|
question shall be immediately recalled and the position of Project
|
||||||
|
Director shall be considered vacated.

# Constitution

|
||||||
## Article I. Name
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The name of this organization shall be the Intrusive Thoughts Creative
|
|
||||||
Collective. For brevity, it may also be referred to as Intrusive
|
|
||||||
Thoughts, Intrusive Games, or simply the Collective.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Article II. Purpose
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We are artists and creators who reject the present capitalist economic
|
|
||||||
order based on exploitation of labor for private profit, and we defy
|
|
||||||
the regime of violence and terror which enforces it. We reject white
|
|
||||||
supremacy, we reject patriarchy, we reject western imperialism, and we
|
|
||||||
reject all forms of discrimination based on race, gender identity,
|
|
||||||
sexual orientation, disability status, age, religion, and national
|
|
||||||
origin. We have come together to show the people that our world does
|
|
||||||
not have to be this way. Through our works as artists, we endeavor to
|
|
||||||
spread class consciousness, foster resistance against our oppressors,
|
|
||||||
and spread our shared vision of a humane social order.
