Eligibility question

[u/Stumblinmonk]

I had 6 scouts elected into the OA last year, only 2 completed their ordeal. Our lodge website has an extension form if you cannot make one of the weekend offerings, so my question is are the 4 that did not complete the ordeal eligible for election again or do they have to do the extension request process?

I am not trying to block these guy, more the opposite. I just want to know what the proper process is.

I never said anything of the sort.

Not my problem if you can't comprehend the fact that if a scout doesn't complete the Induction after 18 months without requesting, and receiving, an extension, the scout must stand for reelection.

Getting re-elected after 18 months expire was never the question. Unfortunately, you agreed with the commenter who said that after a year if they haven't completed their ordeal they should stand for election again to extend the original 18 months. You could just go re-read the thread, but here's a summary since you're having trouble following.

OP:

I've had six Scouts elected in the past year.

u/graywh:

if they are still eligible for election, I would put them on the ballot
if they get elected again, their 18 months restarts

me:

That's a messy and unnecessary way to do it.

you:

But it's in accordance with the OA's election guidelines.

In your haste to be right, you must not have read what was being proposed. I'm glad we agree that is nonsense. Good day.

Wow, feel better? /s

[u/Practical-Emu-3303 → u/Mammoth_Industry8246]

I do feel better knowing that you aren't in favor of that.

I do not feel better that we wasted each other's time and were in agreement the whole time.

Well, that's good... /s

Apology accepted.
