Moderator Nomination Thread

Undertoad • Jan 1, 2015 10:11 am
This is part one of the moderators election. (Part two is the actual vote.)

The term of office for this election is through 1/1/2016, 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.

Stay the course... the only question is whether the current keepers will agree to keep on, keeping on.
Griff • Jan 1, 2015 5:13 pm

OK, you're both willing, cool. That doesn't preclude anyone else who wants the job from running, just that we aren't in a replacement search mode.

I forgot or didn't realise limey was an admin. haha Oh well, I'd better behave myself in future when she's around.

I'm happy with who we have.

Are footfootfoot and Gravdigr being nominated for the moderator position, or are you making a joke by nominating them for nominators?

Moderators.

Thanks for the thought but not actually having an internet connection and also realizing the extent of my internet addiction I don't think I would make an effective or reliable moderator.
Lola Bunny • Jan 2, 2015 2:25 pm
I'm satisfied with who we have currently.

If the present incumbents are prepared to shoulder the burden of high office for another year, I would humbly suggest that they are returned unopposed.

(Grovel mode set to standby ;))

Me too, but that's how democracy slips away. Skipping the process lets glatt have soylent machines secretly built with Limey's Eastern European connections. Then suddenly our complacency has spawned iron fisted overlords. No, not that kind of fisting, Sheldon. :headshake

So going through the process reaffirms our right to reject, and provides a chance to yearly show our love to them for doing the good job they're doing.

Limey and Glatt all over again.

Limey. Glatt.

Glatt. Limey.

Seems about right.
Griff • Jan 3, 2015 11:38 pm
No thanks sister, I appreciate the sentiment though.
monster • Jan 4, 2015 12:17 am
I was just trying to create a range of sensible options, I won't take offence. *sniff* :)
sexobon • Jan 4, 2015 12:20 am
So far, that leaves three ...

It's a shame that one of these nice people has to come in last. I would've nominated someone certain to not get any votes, some low down snake in the grass who's yet so aloof they wouldn't even bother to vote for themselves. Those kind of nominations are; however, discouraged: otherwise I would have nominated noboxes.

Too late now anyway!

I wouldn't have accepted. Image
monster • Jan 6, 2015 11:28 pm
but you're not noboxes, you have one, it's just backwards. And a little echoey
footfootfoot • Jan 7, 2015 8:10 am
What a stinky thing to say.
