I agree that a council of seven (C7 = {Ace McWicked, AD, Armondikov, Blue, Genghis Khant, WaitingforGodot, Weaseloid.) should be elected this way - the question for me was: could you take a council of nine, and then take those of the council of nine  (C9 = {Ace McWicked, AD, Armondikov, Blue, DickTurpis, Genghis Khant, Reckless Noise Symphony, WaitingforGodot, Weaseloid}) which aren't in the council of seven as alternates: Alternates =  C9  / C7 = {Reckless Noise, Dick Turpis}.

While this would work in our situation, it doesn't work in general with this realization of the STV. I don't know whether this is a quirk of the STV in general or just of the implementation.

Fact is: The STV is brilliant for elections in general, but such small elections as ours may not work as well...
