Fellow Members!
Please be advised that our Free TON Academy JURY proposal has received wide support on FORUM under Proposal: FREE TON ACADEMY SUB-GOVERNANCE - #42 by emmorozov
I am therefore copying JURY proposal here (with adjusted dates) and then to formal vote by SG Free TON Academy Initial members.
Thank you!
Free TON Academy Sub-Governance Jury Contest
We are planning to create a decentralized FT Academy Sub-Governance Jury with a total of up to 24 participants (including 14 Initial Members to vote for Proposals and 10 jurors to judge Contests). That is, up to 10 additional participants from the Free TON community who are willing to put in the time and efforts to study, interpret, analyze, vote, and deliver qualified feedback to contest submissions from contestants will be accepted into the Jury of the FT Academy Sub-Governance.
Type: Contest.
Application time:
April 10, 2021 (00:00 UTC) – April 17, 2021 (23:59 UTC).
Voting time:
April 18, 2021 (00:00 UTC) – April 21, 2021 (23:59 UTC).
Motivation:
In an effort to decentralize processes within the Free TON FT Academy Sub-Governance, the Jury must be selected from the Free TON Community. This will help achieve the goals of decentralized Sub-Governance.
Motivational component of each contest will be taken into account, since voting is a honourable, difficult and responsible task.

Rights and duties of the winner as a Jury member:
Winners will get the right to be a juror for each Free TON FT Academy Sub-Governance contest going forward and get the same reward as each contest describes for jurors. The award will be distributed in fair proportion to all jury members participating in the voting who have given a mark or “Reject” (but not “Abstain”), based on the quantity of votes within a specific contest.
In order to get the jury reward described in each contest, the juror must consider the following:
- Each juror should review each contest language and its requirements;
- The juror should review each contestant’s submission (uploaded in PDF format) and determine if each submission is within the scope of his or her understanding to judge it, and then vote as follows:
a) If outside of juror competence, the juror should vote to “Abstain”;
b) If within juror competence, the juror should vote on a scale of 1-to-10 with 1 representing least and 10 representing most qualified submissions;
c) If the submission is inappropriate, the PDF file is unopenable or corrupt, is a duplicate etc., the juror should vote to “Reject”.
- The juror should follow Contest instructions on score weights (if any), provide constructive and qualified feedback in the appropriate field describing the reason for their score.
- To reject the submission, only 50% +1 votes from those members of the jury who actually voted for this submission work are enough.
- Jury members must fulfill other duties and / or adhere to the rules that will be described in contests.
- Systematic violations of the rules or non-fulfillment of duties by a member of the jury may lead to expulsion by a proposal to expel.
As any civic duty dictates, every juror must remain objective to the best of his/her abilities in regard to voting, i.e., stick to the facts and the facts only, leaving any personal feelings aside.
