PitaKang
I've known him on this wiki for a long time. Here's a guy who's dedicated to the wiki. He's a regular patron at this fine establishment and has set some trends for Map Games. He gave us Axis vs. Allies and a Different History, among many other things. The guy's enthusiastic and very friendly. He's a helpful person and I can honestly see him fitting in well over at the TSPTF. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you PitaKang. CrimsonAssassin 02:55, April 4, 2012 (UTC)

 * Honestly, Can't really go one way or the other here..... Crim by making the nomination, you cannot be a supporter. And, while not explicitly against the rules, it's definitely against our practices for someone who is not a member of the admin team to making nominations here. Lordganon 07:52, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, thanks for clearing that up. CrimsonAssassin 11:22, April 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, this is my first go at this, so lets give it a blast. Well, I will accept this nomination because I enjoy battling vandalism. I've seen too many vandals, and it would be good to talk with some authority over them. Also, I will try my best to moderate map games, since several of the newer ones are quite… implausible. Sincerely, PitaKang

Enclavehunter
Enclave has been here, now, for a little over 6 months. He's started a few timelines of his own, participated in a few of the games, along with done some mediating long with general advice and admin work. I figure he'll do good at this. And, as such, I nominate him for the position of Constable in the TSPTF. Lordganon 22:25, April 6, 2012 (UTC)

 * ​I've accept the nomination, as I've seen what happens when vandalizers and other people do to articles, and I want to help prevent that. Enclavehunter 22:32, April 6, 2012 (UTC)

VonGlusenburg
Von's been a member of the wiki for a couple of years now. He's one of our more avid players of the games, a contributor to the 1983: Doomsday timeline, and the author of the Early World War I timeline. He's shown himself to be pretty reasonable, too. As such, I nominate him for the position of Constable in the TSPTF. Lordganon 23:43, April 6, 2012 (UTC)

Katholico
Kath is one of our long-time Lieutenants, for more than a year now. He's also been the main administrator over at our Spanish counterpart for a long time. As someone who's been active, he's also been diligent in maintaining this place, even holding the last Stirling Award handed out for it. He's also great editor, contributing to many different timelines around here, and giving advice on even more. And now, Brian is taking a break - and the first name that popped into my mind to join the Brass to help was Kath's. All of this, and more, is why I nominate him for the rank of Brass in the TSPTF.

Impeachment
It is entirely possible that a member of the TSTPF may neglect his duties and/or abuse their power. If this happens they must have their user rights removed. To keep it fair, the following procedure has been adopted.

Rules

 * User who feels a TSPTF member should be impeached from his position, must first contact the TSPTF on their talk page with their complaint and attempt to work out the issue with them.
 * If user refuses to accept any compromise from the TSTPF he may then bring up the TSPTF member for impeachment.
 * Impeaching user must explain why he thinks the TSPTF member should have his user rights removed.
 * Registered users' votes must have 2/3rd supermajority to impeach a TSPTF member (Only users who have been registered for over a month—from the day the nomination is put forth—are counted).
 * TSPTF members’ votes must have a 2/3rd supermajority to impeach a TSPTF member.

To view past impeachments, see the archive.

Reasons
There are only a few recognized reasons why a TSPTF member should have his user rights removed:
 * They are not actively participating as a member of the TSPTF.
 * They have not been carrying out the responsibilities they volunteered for.
 * They have have not been fair, restrained, and/or constructive in their dealings with other editors.
 * They consistently refuse to follow the conventions and guidelines of this community.

Note: One of these reasons alone is probably not enough to impeach a TSPTF member. Consider that before demanding an impeachment.
