Missing candidate info? What did I do wrong?

http://www.flyertalk.com/talkthevote...?candidate=196

Why was I missing two of the five Q&As on my candidate page? Did I do something wrong?

Thanks,
FewMiles..

Perhaps this would be answered more quickly in ORP or Technical Issues? I don't think any of the TalkBoard members can shed any light on this matter. At least I can't...

I can. This was a technical glitch, apparently, with IB (or perhaps IB was the only one who could fix it).

I noticed that three of my five answers were missing before the election period started, I PMed Randy, and it got fixed pretty quickly.

I had that same experience. At least three of my responses were missing. I e-mailed THOM and got it fixed.

Sadly, you are not alone on this one!

You should be thankful it didn't happen to your candidate profile info. Some people even had candidate profile error!

My understanding is IB didn't perform a timely enough job to update all the things needed for this TB election.

My entire profile and platform, which had been submitted in a timely manner, was missing when the campaigning was opened on November 5th.
I noticed it immediately and sent a quick PM to Mikel at the House of Miles who corrected the situation.

Although these glitches were unfortunate, I feel it is the responsibility of the candidates to make sure their info was complete and correct and to notify the administrators, in a timely manner, if there were errors.

That's what I assumed must have happened to you, Cholula, when I saw that you were participating in the debates, but weren't listed on the candidates roster. Glad you ran and glad you got elected!

If any candidate has any continued issues with how the campaign was "advertised" and "run", they need to take it up with Randy.

There is no need for public speculation on this issue.
