Revocation of Panel Judge status will be by a majority vote of the IRTC Admin Team. It is possible to be reinstated. Again, this will be by majority vote of the Admin Team. The decision on whether to consider revokation or reinstatement is solely the responsibility of the Admin Team. Neither Panel Judges nor Entrant Judges can vote for their own images.
Voting still requires all other images to have been voted on.
All voters get only one vote. If you become a Panel Judge and also enter an image in the IRTC you still only get one vote. However, they are the only people who are authorized to vote. Judges or entrants who do not vote in a particular round will not be penaized in any way. Initially, the Judging Panel will consist of all the current members of the IRTC Admin Team.
