I've had a few fuckups in the past (to be transparent, I had a two week chat restriction back at the end of 2015, and I've quarreled with a few people in CaC before), which I've since apologized and moved on from, but otherwise I'd be 101% willing to volunteer as a Warden for CaC / S,A,aS. I'd also nominate a few other quality CaC posters like Echoing, Raxistaicho, fugertech, and Arakadia, I'm sorry if I forgot anyone. I'd vouch for these four in particular and I hope they'd vouch for me. I'm an active poster in CaC and have judged contests there before. I filled out the forum and submitted.

Oh, I forgot to add this. Some steps I'd take as a moderator is sticky CCOS's and other contests and a running list of champions made by individual posters - e.g. a thread of hyperlinks to other threads containing the list of concepts made by RlVER KlNG, made by Raxistaicho, etc. Would be a lot of work but would help with organization. I'd also like to work with Sharjo and help his content get more visibility.

I've already applied.

I probably won't make it and the whole thing is terrifying as hell to me, but someone has to do SOMETHING about the slew of off-topic posts here drowning out perfectly good concepts.

I was filling it out, then I saw "voice chat". That was a big no for me.

Is it important what division candidate is?
