Mary campaigned for a position in the EVE Online Council of Stellar Management elections. You can head on over to eve-online.com to read up on the CSM. Basically, she would have been part-ombudsman (ombudsperson?), part employee.

She came in at 21 out of 61 and fell just shy of being an alternate candidate (9 seats, 5 alts). With her just getting back in the game after a hiatus, her recent surgery, our move, dealing with three kids and the rest of the stuff that’s been going on I think this is an amazing accomplishment. I looked at the spread:

and clearly there were either extraordinarily popular folks or many votes from players with multiple accounts. I only wish I could have drummed up more support for her.

I’m really proud of her. She made a great effort to win this and I sincerely hope she gives it another try when they hold elections again. It is truly CCP’s loss.
