Role-playing Games's fifth moderator election has come to a close, the votes have been tallied and the two new moderators are:

Someone_Evil linksassin

They'll be joining the existing crew shortly—please thank them for volunteering, and share your assistance and advice with them as they learn the ropes!

Also, please join me in thanking nitsua60 and doppelgreener, who will be stepping down as moderators.

For details on how the voting played out, you can download the election results here, or view a summary report online.

    \$\begingroup\$ Let me start by thanking everyone who voted and put your faith in us, and to Ben for running. It would, unfortunately, not be much of an election if someone didn't lose. \$\endgroup\$

Congrats, and thanks to everyone who ran!

Someone_Evil and linksassin, I look forward to having you on the team. Ben, you were a great candidate too - don't be too discouraged by the results, and I hope you run again in future elections. You were all excellent candidates. I'm excited to see what you bring to the moderator team!

Thanks for the opportunity

It was a privilege to get to run in this election and an honor to be selected. I hope I can live up to the faith the community has placed in me, as well as the legacy of the terrific mods who have come before me.

    \$\begingroup\$ I'm still stunned by the mid-election revelation that your username isn't "LinkAssassin." A scandal like that could have derailed your whole candidacy.... \$\endgroup\$

We had no way to lose

Two good choices, and a third who'd have been good also.
As I said in chat:
You Look Good in Blue
