I might as well keep the ball rolling, here's a fresh candidate as a change from all these old, worn-out farts. Then again, he's probably Yonnua's or Axe's alt or something. Anyway the account given has been doing some things, good things, I guess everyone has seen his handywork, he'd make an excellent bot slapper (this is what job boils down to today anyway) and he seems to be a reasonable and polite young chap indeed. --Thadeous Oakley Talk 21:35, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm really flattered, not just by this nomination, but by how several people have been encouraging me towards sysophood. Do know that it's definitely a possibility for the future (like I said on Spiderzed's RE, I'm most likely to apply around April or May, after I'm done with this whole being-an-undergrad thing).

But to that effect, I'm declining the bid. I should really be working on school stuff, and being a sysop would give me even more of an excuse to procrastinate. In addition, there's very little which I would be doing with buttons that I don't do already (like you said, Thad, botswatting). I'm currently working on a couple different non-sop things (like revamping the various projects), so don't worry, I'll be active.

Also, no, I'm not Yon, nor am I new-future-remodeled-Axe. I could be Aichon executing a heavily concealed, multi-year plan to eventually hold both crat seats though. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 01:11, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

• Comment. Can't be Yon. He's (?) accurately responded to what I say instead of inventing dialogue to reply to. 21:38, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

  He is (Yon) aspiring to be a talented young politician (as am I) and lawyer, don't blame the water for being wet. --Thadeous Oakley Talk 21:48, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

  Iunno, even Jim Allister shoots straight once in a blue moon. I foresee a future of unreturned poll deposits. 21:50, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

  Sometimes I feel like my biggest weakness around here is not getting all y'all's European references. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 01:11, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

• Strong Vouch - Bob is definitively the most promising new user we had in a while. Constantly gnoming behind the curtains, never drumming up drama, someone who looks to get things done. That is the kind of personality we can never have enough of on the team. -- Spiderzed█ 21:42, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
• Against as stated by bob himself he's got a very important qualification he should be doing. In the summer when he's done it, he can fritter his life away here. --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 22:51, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
• weak against might change it a vouch. but for now I think it's too soon. i mean how do we know you won't pull a thad?--User:Sexualharrison22:56, 24 December 2012
• Vouch - Bring him in. Would be nice to have any worker in the team, open the doors! A ZOMBIE ANT 00:08, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Declined. Also, it's awkward getting nominated again so soon after I was just promoted to 'crat.—Aichon— 05:40, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
