DDR says he wants to step down after his 'crat term expires, to ensure he has no excuse we need at least another sysop so he can't renege on his word again.

Aichon does stuff. He speaks computer. And he'll be a more tyrannical overlord than Grim ever was. Vouch for him or your names will be added to the guest list for the new regime's holiday camps in Poland.

He'll be along shortly to confirm all this himself.... maybe.... -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 02:49, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

I'll accept the nomination, but, in the interest of complete honesty, I want to make a few things clear. I may be killing any chances I have, but I don't mind, because...

1. I'm not nominating myself, nor did I ask for this.
2. I intend to perform pretty much the same way I do now, though I'll chip in a bit with the admin chores.

Basically, if I'm promoted, you can expect more of the same from me. I'm just a guy helping out around here for fun, and that's not gonna change. Real life keeps me busy quite often, but I have no issues with helping out on sysop stuff when I can. To be clear though, I'm not interested in having this become a major, time-sucking obligation, nor am I interested in having the things I've been doing out of good will until now suddenly become things that are demanded and expected of me regularly, if that makes sense. I'm also not interested in getting caught up in whatever politics are going on here. I think for myself and speak for myself alone.

I don't want people to go into this with unreasonable expectations of me, but, if everyone is okay with the stuff I've said, then great. If not, I'll be happy to answer questions, and I won't take the "against" votes personally, since I wasn't looking for the promotion in the first place. —Aichon— 03:36, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Objection, your honour! The candidate is reading from a prepared statement. Such things are against the rules of this kangaroo court, just not cricket and seriously reduce the potential mirth. I move that the statement be stricken and that the candidate be forced to make a new statement entirely in Death Rattle. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 03:39, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Objection! This objection was clearly planned in advance in the event that Aichon had prepared an objectable speech in acceptance of the vote for wiki sysop. Objecting to objections might serve no object purpose, but my objection objects to a clearly objectable objection which might convince others to object to this clearly non-objectionable vote. Object object object.--Shank Case 03:42, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Objection, your honour! Shank smells funny. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 03:44, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Why do you hate people, I thought that catholics felt compassion for their fellow man --Shank Case 03:21, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

I agree. It is evil. Just like various vegetables and people who insist in pursuing miming as a profession. —Aichon— 03:46, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

• Assuming he accepts, I approve. Consistently helpful, high level of proficiency with all things wiki and familiarity with the operations of UD Wiki in particular – plus he's a good guy. User:Revenant declines to disclose whether he was paid for this endorsement. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 03:22, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
• Against - Uses a mac, also likes animu --/~Rakuen~\^Talk I Still Love Grim 03:23, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Says the guy who goes by a name that means "paradise" in Japanese and was a word that played prominently in the Wolf's Rain anime series. But still, there's no arguing with facts, and if you object on that basis, I have no problems with that. But I'll laugh at you when you're not looking. —Aichon— 03:46, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

• Against - I descriminate against Mac users. --TripleU 03:28, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm an equal opportunity computer user. I give PCs every opportunity to perform, and they consistently fail to do so. :P

In all seriousness though, I'm actually posting this from my Mac...booted into my copy of Windows 7 Pro. What can I say? Steam rocks. —Aichon— 03:46, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
