Moderator election thread

[Undertoad]

Please vote for no more than two people, to be Cellar moderators through the end of the year. The top two will be selected. The term of this office will be through 1/1/2015.

Candidates are listed in order of nomination.

The job is:

Moderators are added to the list of email addresses that get notified when someone reports a post. One would remove spam and forum abuse and things like this.

Moderators can do the following:
- Edit, move, delete posts
- Edit, move, copy, open/close threads
- Post announcements (make posts "sticky" at the top of the forum)
- View IP addresses
- Ban users

This is not a popularity contest but a way to figure out who should have additional power for the benefit of the community. Full disclosure: although I have the ability to see who voted for whom, I won't peek, I sincerely promise.

The vote will be open for five days, ending at approx. 11:59 am EST Jan. 10. (Or whenever I notice time is up.) Thanks all for participating.

Mid-afternoon BUMP

This election has been spoilt, and will require a re-do. It was pointed out to me that I had left a candidate off the list. The re-do will begin immediately in a new thread. Folks who have voted here will need to re-vote in the new thread.

I apologize for this mistake.

Can we re do the 2000 US presidential election while we're at it? Please?
