I know it's summer and schedules are full of stuff we all like to do but we really need to get around to this stuff I think.  We're getting a lot of applications that I don't think any of us like very much.  In fact, I find myself voting yes on apps that I think are pretty awful just to see somethign happen.

It seems inviting people throughout the week we lose track of when their two-week trial period is up.  Because of this we can't do a very good job of sitting down and reviewing these guys if they're FSE material and are keepers or should be tossed on the scrap heap to be taken away.  Would it be easier for all of us, if we waited until there were a set number of apps, or each week and then invited all the apps that were approved for their trial, then we could have a set day where a bunch of people's two week trial was up and could review them accordingly?

Our application does need some more personal questions (TP : Crumple or Fold?) to get a better feel for these people who want to be part of the exclusive club of FSE.   Could we also put a simple question of age on the application?  It's not a great way to judge someone, but neither is reading answers to the questions we have now....unless they say they're rogue is a cumbat spec.

I want numbers for MC and the stuff we haven't gotten to but I don't want to be doing MC someday with people that drive me crazy.  Sorry to re-hash old stuff but I really want us to get better in the sense of the people we bring into the guild.  I know I've been lax on saying yes to some apps I probably should have turned down so I apologize for that.

What are some of the logistic things we need to get done to make some of this start happening?  If there's anything I can help with let me know.  I've got all summer off.
