Dear community,

First of all I'll start with an apology: I haven't been able to keep up with recent events and I don't know what the exact motives of the past sysops are, but I've tried to catch up the best as possible (I'm barely able to act as helper at this moment).

I understand that many users want to see a new election/selection process, but we also have to fill a gap right now so I've nominated a contributor in the old fashioned way. So please go check out the nomination of Cheatcodechamp over at the nominations page. I have seen much of his work and know what he is capable of. The reason I nominated just one person doesn't mean that other contributors don't fit the role; I simply didn't have enough time available to go through a large list of contributors to find the ideal set of people. CCC was already high on the list of possible candidates and was nearly nominated over Ghost Anubis in last year's nominations.

I know there are many valid candidates among the 'newer' guys, but I haven't been around enough to see enough of you just now.

So again: It is very likely that more nominations will happen in the next few weeks and those can be handled in either the old way, or an alternative way that is open for discussion in this thread.

Please keep all responses to the Cheatcodechamp-nomination on the designated nomination pages, we can use this thread to discuss the broader scope of the whole nominations process.
