Oh, wow, nope, I'm all jacked up. I totally missed Gintigael volunteering. I'm sorry dude, I'll amend that immediately.

No..no.. I'm not challenging anything. My brain just somehow shut down and glossed over it or something... I can't read. I've updated the list with your name.

Yeah, again, I'm sorry about that. I'm the last person who'd want to tell anyone they can't have a position =P I blame it on craziness at work. We're hopping our entire server cluster to a new site and a new network tomorrow. It's a little hectic here.

Looks like a very good list to me. I'm fairly new and so didn't nominate anyone directly, but all those listed definitely show interest in their respective areas. For my part, I'm a firm believer in "servant leadership" that basically empowers the "followers" to maximize their potential. I'd be looking to do the same thing here. If at any point someone thinks I've acted out of line, let me know--I'm not always the most empathetic/aware sort of person when it comes to how something I say might be taken negatively. Know that I pretty much never attack others (I will defend myself) and that's actually what drew me to the group!

Other than those first friends in this group, we're all pretty new. In the little time that you've been here, Erian, you have shown a desire to work with us and you have great ideas. I agree with "servant leadership". All must serve me, hahaha. Seriously, though, tell me if I'm being an ass. I can never tell if some mage has polymorphed me into a donkey again.

Everything I know about good leadership I learned from my Old Man, Teddy Roosevelt, and Lincoln. Lincoln on Leadership is one hell of a book - and I don't have to like all of someone's policy's persona to like their leadership technique (as an Austrian Economics leaning person, a lot of things Teddy/Lincoln did are no-no's to me).
Rule Number One of Leadership: Know how to delegate and stay the hell out of the way of the people doing things. Rule Two: Back up the people you delegate to the hilt.

Bristol. He's been sick as a dog for the last week or two, I suspect we should be seeing more of him. But if anyone else wants to nominate/step up to the plate for Sentinel, every position is up in the air. Just because someone has put themselves up for something doesn't mean they'll automatically receive it (including me. =[) Rumors, death, exaggerated, etc. etc. Sorry for my absence, everyone. I'm very much alive and think I'm up to speed now! People in the Facebook group will see me there as Christopher Glory. Just to make it official in this thread, I still accept my name being put forward for the position of Sentinel, and will fill the position to the very best of my ability if that's what the Keepers want.

I'd be happy to serve as everybody's Guardian of Wood. I feel it is where I'd like to be the most and where I'd be most helpful and I don't mind leading so that's a plus to all of you who seem to not want to wish leadership even upon your enemies . Everybody who has been nominated for a position I will second, triple, quad, pent, sex- Ok maybe not that. But I have yet to see an unqualified Warden yet so I agree with all nominations.

Also, we're at 25 members. Shall the voting begin or since there are no contested positions should I go ahead and change everybody's title?

Cal, let's give it a couple days for the folks that signed up in the last day or two to get their feet and see if they want to run for any positions before we lock things in.
