With this proposal I propose to terminate events bounty. Events bounty has always been very problematic and I have received so many complaints by so many organizers of events that are completely discouraged. The issue is not that the bounty rejects certain proposals which would be perfectly okay, the issue is that it seems that it takes even 2 weeks just to receive a comment. There have been many promises of changes or improvement but those never happen even by changing the curators. The rationale for terminating the bounty is that some people vote on principle and vote against events arguing that they should go to events bounty. But going to events bounty implies losing a lot of time often just to get rejected which will compromise the event itself. If the events bounty was able to at least reject within one week it would be perfect so one could go to referendum after rejection but they're also slow to reject so basically this could compromise events. We have a specific case where for example DV Halikon voted against a very successful event, the one that just happened in Dubai, just on principle arguing you should go to events bounty. Of course every organizer knows that going to events bounty would have led to just canceling the event. But unfortunately because of his vote the proposal missed the spending period and basically the organizer had to advance the funds out of his own pocket which I personally think is unacceptable and is going to discourage a lot of people from organizing events. So I argue that it is much better for events bounty not to exist to avoid having certain voters voting no to event referendums arguing that they should go to events bounty.
