Ok nobody wants to see stupid arguments being made so I'll cut things short to move discussion forward:

• Mentalist Traceur, in all honesty, your post is exactly why people run away from Council/Board matters because its so confusing to read such a long-winded post.
• szopin, what are you trying to get to? Be concise and if you want to annoy someone like in a playground go and do it face-to-face instead of using mods as your pawns.

With the above done now the tl;dr of having this referendum from what I understand is:

• MCC reports to Nokia as its head but now we have HiFo handling the financial aspects we want to transform MCC to HiFo Council
• As part of this transformation, ALL the rules of MCC will be carried forward except for the 3 and 5 candidates situations
• This thread is so that we have 4 weeks to discuss about the go-ahead to transfrom MCC to a HiFo Council with above changes plus anything else people think can close loopholes to prevent power grabs etc

Now if someone wants to correct my misconceptions PLEASE keep it short, simple and concise.
