Kip Copper opens guild roll, reservation slips and the ballot box seal log at the shared bench room at Slate Bend. Before anyone changes a mark, the crew checks the only box is stored at a branch that closes for tool service. The first seep period sets the pace of the work.
The page holds 83 members able to cast a ballot during an open bench interval. Kip Copper reads the preceding count, 79, before the next line is entered. A number without a date would not tell the next crew what changed.
The guild wants one sealed box. Members ask for a second ballot interval after the tool service ends. Here the difference is visible between the posted rule and the route, service or shift just beyond the door.
The clerk attaches the current passage map and the last change card. The Year first, first seep window 1 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The guild will test a second staffed ballot interval with the same seal log.
The shift closes with the source page attached to the board. The next file uses a new date and scope.
