Mid Stakes:
-Entity for sure.
-Evan likely (where is he? Evan, chime in, bro!)
-Outside chance at someone else (listed under SS)

I think JeffW would make an excellent mid-stakes mod, if he was interested.

Mid-High Short:
-Surfbullet for sure
-Josh. virtually for sure
-Is this where Robk will go?
-Schneids may mod this too.
-Do we need 4 mods here?

Small Stakes Short:
-Me for sure
-StellarWind would like the job.
-I had mentioned JaxUp, but I think the idea of having a HUSH regular and a micro regular mod SSSH is better than two micro guys so as to better appeal to former HUSH posters.
-I haven't contacted cartman.
-I haven't seen Michal Davis posting, and I saw a post saying he was gone. I don't think he's a good choice, then.

I'll be a temp mod in SSHUSH to ease the transition and move posts around immediately after the split, if it will help. While I plan on spending most of my time in MHUSH i feel an obligation to SSHUSH because Ive assured many lower-stakes regulars that the general atmosphere in SSHUSH will be the same is in HUSH now, and the best way I can help is by posting and having my presence known after the split.
I think MrWookie and Stellar will do an excellent job and I would let them run the show, however.

When I became HUSH mod Robk told me he was basically turning the reins over to me, as he was getting tired of the position. Leaving him in SSHUSH is probably fine, maybe he'll chime in and let us know.

For MHUSH I think that looks good. If that's set, when can I get in touch with Schneids and Josh.? I'd prefer to have some discussion with them beforehand so we are all on the same page.

OK, putting robk on SSSH is fine. It'll look less weird to have two forums w/ three mods than one forum w/ 4, even though it doesn't seem to make much of a difference where robk ends up.

Will mid stakes need 3 mods? I'm a little skeptical since it might be a little low on traffic to start out with. I take it Jeff W. isn't a high stakes player, and he wouldn't fit in there very well.

Having you as a temp mod sounds fine. I could shuffle posts as necessary if you want, but listing you there might make things easier to start. I guess SSSH will be the one with four mods then. Heh.

Dids and Jax as BBV mods? Sounds fine to me. It might actually need two mods, since I could see it turning into a high traffic, high flame zone pretty quickly.

i think the best choice for high stakes would be a vocal veteran like diablo, paluka, clarkmeister, ja sucker, etc.

anybody along those lines that's active enough, interested, and balanced.

I would be in favor of all of those people if they want the job.

In fact I would value Diablo's advice in this thread before we make these changes.

MrWookie47 · #5 11-17-2005, 04:33 PM

I haven't seen clark posting recently. Is he still around? Also, you want to PM any of those guys to see if they're interested?

I wouldn't disagree with any of these guys being made mods, but I doubt any of them will want to do it. If any of them are willing I can't imagine anyone objecting.

So is everyone agreed on the mods for the shorthanded forums? Are the only open questions at this point who we want to pull in for the openings in the small and higher(full) forums?

If this is truly "temporary", I think we need to agree on a timeframe (something like two weeks? more?). If we don't, I think you will end up staying as a moderator there forever. That scenario isn't automatically bad, but I think it needs to be clear exactly what we are planning to do rather than agreeing to one thing and having something else happen.

This is a good point. 2 weeks should be more than enough, IMO. If it things settle down sooner or if the other SSHUSH mods think I should stick around longer we can always change it but that seems like a good plan.

I think one week would probably be enough. If you wanted to stick around for two, that would be fine by me.

As for the forums, yeah, it looks like we need only fill SS and HS, unless someone claims that Dids only wants to mod BBV because he wants to flame n00bs and their 14 BB downswings [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
