I can’t believe I’m doing this – I blame that German – but I’m going to throw my name into the hat. I think by now most people probably know who I am and what sort of things I stand for, as far as ALFA goes, but for those who are newer to ALFA or simply have had the good fortune of avoiding me so far, let me go into a bit of detail.

I have written out a big, too lengthy platform which I have re-editted way too many times, to get the wording just right. So I came to the point which, as the ideas are the same, I'm going to give you some... bullet points!
  • I'm Rotku. I've been around for a while.
  • I'm not as conservative as Veilan (bloody German).
  • While I'm willing to consider changes, I do like to make sure they are properly thought out first.
  • I've been on a break this past six months and I'm returning nice and recharged and willing to jump in.
To Do List includes:
  • Discussion about Player Density
  • Continue Mood Gauges and discuss other ways to increase Admin-Player communication channels
  • Encourage the DMA get a DM Disputes system in place (I believe he has a staffer on the job currently)
  • Discuss with various parties ways to work the Lead Appeals (there has been a fair bit of discussion about that this past half year)
  • Work with Admin body to keep things running smoothly
  • Be generally awesome
Why Vote For Me
  • Rational, level headed type of person
  • Approachable, even if I'm not in game as much as I'd like
  • Know ALFA inside out
  • The aforementioned awesomeness
So that's it for now. I'm happy to copy/paste more detail from one edition of my drafts if people want more details somewhere. Feel free to open up a Q+A thread if needed.

I'm stepping aside. Having seen Rumple step forward and some of his answers, I'm happy to leave these next six months of pain and suffering to him :)

With Analogkid 9 and Rumple C 37 votes,

Rumple C obtains the dubious honour of serving as ALFA's next Lead Administrator.

Thanks to both candidates for volunteering their services, and condolences to the winner!

Cheers,

I hope to serve ALFA as best I can.

First order of business - More DMs doing regular times = More players back in game.

Thanks in advance to everyone for helping out with constructive advice and your passion for the project. Despite the differing views some people have, there is one thing we do have in common, love of the RP. If we can focus on what unites us, rather than what divides - we'll be ok.
