Moderator nomination thread

Undertoad · 01-01-2010, 10:22 AM

This is part one of the moderators election. (Part two is the actual vote.)

The term of office for this election is through 1/1/2011, and the number of moderators shall remain unchanged at two.

Nominate people to be voted on in the moderators election. People nominated here will appear in the moderators vote, unless they specifically say they do not accept the nomination.

Joke nominations are discouraged, only because I can't tell whether you are joking or not.

The moderator election is not a popularity contest, and everybody hopes that losers, if there are any, do not feel discouraged about the Cellar. Moderator is a harder job than it appears, if only because people think of you differently if you are a moderator.

Nominations will close at 11:59 pm Eastern time on Jan. 5. If this is longer than appears necessary, it's only to make sure everyone gets a chance to see the thread and participate.

Nominations are open.

Can they have a second term? If so I nominate Bruce, my favoritest mod ever. I also nominate Monster.

Shawnee123 · 01-01-2010, 10:52 AM

wolf and Bruce, unless they are sick of putting up with our dumb asses.

TheMercenary · 01-01-2010, 10:55 AM

Bruce and wolf remain the most level headed among the dwellers. I second a repeat of the pair.

Pie · 01-01-2010, 10:55 AM

Ditto for wolf and bruce, they've done a great job.

Right on.

Trilby · 01-01-2010, 11:29 AM

If they aren't tired of it - wolf and bruce!

monster · 01-01-2010, 11:30 AM

There are many I would be happy with, but Bruce and wolf have done a particularly excellent job this year, so if they're happy to continue, that'll do for me, and if not (and who could blame them if they needed a break), then I'll give it another coat of thinking

glatt · 01-01-2010, 11:49 AM

I'd vote for Bruce and Wolf. If they will take it.

Shawnee123 · 01-01-2010, 11:51 AM

Heh, great alternates would be glatt and mon, so if they say wolf and Bruce, then there is no way they can't do it!

Griff · 01-01-2010, 12:05 PM

I second those alternates.

BrianR · 01-01-2010, 07:51 PM

Hey, do we have term limits? Just askin'

classicman · 01-01-2010, 07:59 PM

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. xoB, that SOB, and wolf.

I know we gotta do this every year, but still thats my opinion.

lumberjim · 01-01-2010, 08:08 PM

Bruce and wolf are as incumbent as it ever gets, in my humble opinion. AND they do a fine job. I would, however like to see another mod added to the present company.

Griff would be my choice for the third.....mainly because he rocks and is awake in the early AM. wolf works 3rd, bruce 2nd shift..... so this would make sense.

I also want to nominate glatt and clodfobble.

I'd really like to nominate nomster, just for the allitteration of it, but the whole 'no joke nomination' thing ....meh

anyway..... 3 mods?

I also nominate Dana for a kinder, gentler cellar.
