Re: New moderator vote!

Well, congratulations to hwybear, the winner of the vote. Thanks goes to all candidates for running! Please run the next time we need a new moderator as well! Thanks also goes to everyone who participated in the voting process, and those who read the announcement. I can hardly disagree with the sentiment that all candidates would be an excellent choice for a moderator, however the people of the board feel that hwybear is the best choice (even if slightly) of the three.
