 * 1) I'm unsure as to whether South would like to be a lieutenant but if he accepts I believe he will be a great leader on this wiki. He has show over the past few months that he is pragmatic, intelligent and clearly understands the rules of this wiki. --GOPZACK 19:19, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

 * Has South even accepted the nomination yet? Mitro 14:11, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, I accept the nomination. Thanks, Zack. SouthWriter 18:25, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Cool. So South, why do you want to be a Lt.? Mitro 18:30, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I knew this was coming - based on the guidelines - but have no formal response prepared. So, here is an informal response. As I understand it, the work of a lieutenant is to monitor the articles of the whole wiki - not just the 1983DD time line. This will keep both my creative and editing abilities honed. I presently have some time not available to other editors, so this should not be too much of a strain. This will also free up the constables to do the occasional rollback and deletion of undesirable articles and sections which trolls and vandals seem to love slipping into the wiki at odd times. SouthWriter 19:35, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * I know we have 2 weeks rule (I should know because I was the one who wrote it0, but considering the overwhelming support. Is there any objections if I close this early and make South our newest admin? Mitro 15:34, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
