If we're unable to appoint a director by the end of September, we will have to accept that 9W won't be able to continue, and the processes of wrapping up the business will have to begin.
The 9W Governance Team (6/6)
If you believe you do have those skills, and you feel you'd be willing to take the helm to help keep Nine Worlds alive, please get in touch as soon as possible. (5/6)
Most importantly, we've been unable to identify any one of us who is able to take on the role of director of Nine Worlds Limited, with the time obligations and legal and financial responsibilities that entails. (4/6)
This is not due to lack of will or enthusiasm, but that we just don't have the requisite skills and experience amongst us to keep Nine Worlds going by ourselves. (3/6)
Unfortunately, after many months of deliberation, the governance committee has concluded that despite our best efforts we are unable to take Nine Worlds forward. (2/6)
My 1 year old daughter loves @DetroitCobras, she demands "dance!" Several times a day, they are her favourite band. Was so excited they're playing Manchester in October, but the venue is 14+
In due course, we will be throwing open the channels of communication for feedback (both in general and specific to the 2018 con) and for more volunteers to help put together Nine Worlds 2020. Watch this space!
We would also like to make it clear that the majority of us are Nine Worlds attendees, not previous management staff; none of us know the full circumstances of what happened with the previous bid, or the reasons for the lack of communication.
We would like to clarify our recent statement that the previous team "unexpectedly withdrew". We did not mean to imply that the previous bidding team were in any way responsible for the lack of communication, and we are sorry for giving that impression.
Hello. Is this thing on? So yes, we hope that #NineWorlds will continue, improve and evolve. I (Samantha) have opted to continue and as such, am on the new governance committee. Roles have not yet been assigned, but I'm on board to ensure we remain as accessible as possible.
The heartbreaking story of how a rich lady from the US stole & monetized the livelihood of a poor Brazilian woman, making millions in the process and almost getting away with it - until she didn't. We can all learn a lesson about privilege & corruption from this story. #Kiini
We want to thank you again, and to wish you a peaceful festive season of whatever variety suits you.

On behalf of the Nine Worlds Governance Committee
We hope we can take Nine Worlds forward to exciting new places. We will be reading and taking on board all comments, tweets etc, and we'll be able to respond properly after the festive period.
We want to hear from all of you who've attended in the past and are interested in joining us in the future, so we will shortly be taking feedback, suggestions, and comments, as well as reviewing feedback from previous years.
Again, it is very early days, we've not yet allocated roles, taken over the legal entity of Nine Worlds Ltd, or explored the financial challenges ahead, but we have the will, enthusiasm and motivation to do so in the coming months.
