Something big is happening in The Art of Warfare soon: we elect a new Commander in Chief! This is when you all get to decide who is the head of TAW. The date has not yet been set for this year's big event. We can say it will happen in about 2-3 weeks time, so keep your eyes peeled.
A CIC election only happens every 2 years and is a very special event in TAW. First, there is a candidate selection process. Next, members are allowed to send in questions and candidates are to present their qualifications and an interview process happens. After a few more interviews and an election officer is appointed, voting happens.
Some key things to note:
A candidate for the CIC position must be a CC (central command) member who has held their position for at least 6 months.
The new CIC has two weeks to change around the CC staff however they please. This can mean CC members lose their positions outright or are moved to different ones. There’s also the possibility of division office members getting promoted to CC if spots are vacant and the CIC deems them worthy.
Usually, the entire process is over with by February and the new CIC is fully settled in.
