[Failbot!Mod] So long, farewell!

[jojibear.livejournal.com]

Back in September 2013, the previous leader of Shiritori - the most excellent goodbeylover - signalled her intention to hand over the running of this writing community onto someone else, and having joined in 2012 and fallen in love with the game, I stepped in to continue it.

It's been a hectic two and some years since I began my tenure as leader of Shiritori - the coming and going of writers, the addition of a new game, etc. - but now I'm finding that I don't and will not have the time to devote to this as much as I would like. So, rather than dragging you all down in upcoming rounds by not being around, with this post I am officially tendering my resignation as leader of Shiritori.

As such, if anyone think they have the will and perseverance to run Shiritori, please state your intentions by leaving a comment in the section below!

That all sounds very overly complicated when it seems... like what I - and the previous leader - of Shiritori has been doing? XD Sorry if I'm being slow... U_U

I can see the soundness of splitting up the job and having a team, but it may... drag things out? That's my main concern. So if the circle is smaller, the quicker things can get done, imo... That's not excluding the team leaders that you'll appoint during each round.

How about I promote mousapelli and bluedreaming as co-mods? In terms of fandom, you'll have most/all of the fandoms covered.

I'm sorry lol my committee team delegation background is coming out (as in setting up a framework for the future) ^^ I was just brainstorming ideas in any case ^^

I'm okay with your suggestion ^^

lol well you know how much I do like my little captain's crown...anyway, yeah, if we had a good split for fandoms that would be nice since I barely do any Koreans or other stuff at all.

I'm fine with that, sure. We can sort it out amongst ourselves who is doing what. And really I'm perfectly happy doing work without being exactly the face of Shiritori, if you know what I mean, so Bluedreaming is welcome to be that.

Bluedreaming (it's Ansa, right? lol it's weird to call you your username), what's the best way to talk to you semi-regularly? Are you a twitter or chat person? Or is it email/lj messages? I can do whatever and I'm mousapelli basically everywhere (twitter, gchat, yahoo, aim, lj, etc etc).

[bluedreaming]

Yup I'm ansa ^^ and I was going to say - I'm 100% okay with not being a face or anything either - my priority is just keeping the comm running smoothly ^^

I'm mostly Twitter (dm)/kkt/line but I can do email too ^^ I do have gchat and wechat and qq but don't use them much and lj is good but it goes straight to my email so it's kind of just an extra step where just email would be faster. Should I pm you my info?

[mousapelli.livejournal.com]

yup, sounds good.

I'm on twitter like all the time, so that's the best place to get my attention, but for sorting out some stuff that shouldn't be as public that's not ideal. Emails probably fine there, but chat might be more expedient if we're doing something specific like trying to work out rotation order specifically.

[bluedreaming]

Well I don't actually ever tweet publicly, so dm is just as private as chat, but it's up to you! My Twitter is @tulipsalt (I'm quite certain we're mutuals?) and my email is inconspicuouslyblue@gmail.com and I'll PM the rest ^^

Are we going to proceed with a call to end the round?

[bluedreaming]

okay! jojibear is there any way you can give us a copy of the html for the rules post? That's the only thing whose access isn't included in the comm maintainership

[jojibear.livejournal.com]

I will send it to you via Line asap!

[bluedreaming]

thank you so much! Mousie and I thought we might repost it again when the new line up gets announced, to refresh and highlight for new users, and we'll use this neutral account (no mod privileges) take_the_end to post it to allow for future mod edits ^^ (the password is in the sidebar)
