This is a timeline for the aid of Seneschals and Stewards for Triumphe. These timings may be adjusted for other events - ie expanded or truncated as needed. The headers are left intentionally vague for this purpose.
Officer's Eight Months Out
For Triumphe, this will be January.
- Announce the due date for Autocrat and Feast Steward bids: preferably at an Officer's meeting

Populace Six Months Out

Officers Six Months Out
- Discuss bids that have come in.
If competing bids come in:
- Have the parties present their case
- Ask both parties if they would work with the other if they are not chosen
- Ask both parties to wait outside of earshot (and eyesight, too, if possible) while the officer's discuss candidly (not hatefully, but a solid concensus MUST be reached).
Note: It's a good idea to get highly-biased "champions" of the bidders to wait with their parties.
Five Months Out
