Let's vote! Lead host and hosts.

Last edited Mon Mar 5, 2012, 03:25 AM - Edit history (1)

I apologize for the lapse in time, but I got a wee bit distracted and lost track of time. I wanted the nominations to go for a week...went a tad longer. Here are the nominees, in no particular order....

  • Behind the Aegis
  • Violet_Crumble
  • JCMach1
  • Douglas Carpenter


Please take the time to list any or all of your choices for host. If you have a preference for a lead host, please indicate this as well. If you indicate "lead host" it will carry more weight, than if no vote is cast for a lead host. We are voting for hosts, not against people being hosts. At this time, we are not including "write-ins."

This will run until next Monday, March 12, 2012, midnight Central Standard Time.

Thanks everyone!

On edit: Per his request, ellisonz has removed his name from the running. Thanks!

I can't choose as all are good candidates! Also, removing myself from hosting in this group in any capacity, too much on my plate.

I am always concerned about one person being host in too many groups and forums
and
would like to see more people given the chance to be hosts if they have not done so.

that said, it appears that the names on the list have self sorted themselves.
I will go with majority rule.

And very happy this group has been formed, it is be a critical topic.

I will send this thread to Skinner, indicating me as lead host (thank you), and then I will install Violet (who was also very involved in the process), as well as Douglas and JMach1. Given that things seems to be reunning very smoothly, I don't see that we will be very busy at all.

Thanks everyone.
