State it first that can always DM me about this and ima try my best to answer concerns just bare with me please.
I think the easiest thing to start off with is separating this into two different sections, 1 regarding the TPE removal and 1 regarding PPT head/Kya.
Firstly the easiest one i think to digest for people, Removal of TPE. Objectively, people completed tasks past a deadline and should not have received the TPE. The deadline is stated on almost all PT's and predictions (Not gonna say all because i haven't checked myself but it more than likely is). This left us in a position where we either
a) Leave this illegal/wrong TPE on people
b) Remove the illegal/wrong TPE off people
c) Give people who were late their TPE>
C is a point I think some people haven't thought of. This entirely investigation started with one conversation in management server with a user complaining about being denied tpe for being late whilst others were late and got it. I was the first one on this and investigated just the last seasons weekly predictions (I think this occurred around Ultimus week, not too sure). If we investigated this and then did not remove tpe, the people who were denied would rightfully be annoyed since some people who did break the deadline have received credit whilst others have not. From personal perspective, as soon as i brought this up to HO as a bigger issue to look into after that one conversation, I was always for and would have pushed the removal of TPE from users as it both makes it fair to those who were denied and follows the deadlines that are set in place.

Now the bigger part i know most of yous have a problem with, The removal of Kya as PPT Head.
I think it goes without saying that this was not a quick and simple process to remove someone as the head of a position. The data that was collected on late PT's and predictions was clear that as a grader/poster, and their time as head, there was a substantially large increase in the percentage of late tasks being approved. (Note that of course, these two numbers play off each other so its pretty easy to worse of both). Going back to the beginning, when the complaint was made in management server and whilst I was investigating it, Kya came online (I think she was tagged) and stated that she does approve late tasks and given them full credit. This is where I instantly brought it to HO, as for me, this is a head of a department, being truthful and honest, saying that they have not followed the rules in place.
I don't think what i will say in terms of the firing will make many people change their mind, but the vote saw the option or Probation, Firing or no action, even talk of relieving her of head and making her a normal member of PPT if she so choosed. At the end of the vote, as apparent, the majority vote (including both ISFL and DSFL HO) was fire. This investigation spanned somewhere in the range of 2-4 weeks and there was always back and forth on it and the outcome. What has to be understood is that the data of 12 seasons had Kya has 1) The worse performing head 2) The worst performing grader. 3)Openly admitting they had done it. There will always be conjecture on whether this was on purpose, especially when it comes to her grading her own and colleague's task that was late, but the facts that the investigation turned up, for HO and at least i can say myself, these numbers and results were a large reason for her being fire as it was no mistake that these claims were approved
I don't really want to get involved in all of this, but I just want to say I feel like this is information that really should have been included in the original post imo.
