ADMIN: Hosts Moving -- Sunflower has Temporary Host Authority
« on: August 13, 2016, 03:11:31 pm »
For those who did not already know, LyricFox and I are moving to Ohio near the end of this month. This means I will be away from the board for the next month or so -- with will few quick visits possible if I have the time. This means:

a) Effective immediately, Sunflower has temporary host authority concerning rules violations and any similar things that might become issues while Lyric and I are away from the board. This includes the ability to make temporary rules changes if absolutely necessary. You can appeal any of her decisions that directly affect you if you really want to once LyricFox and I get up to speed when return to active status, but remember if we consider the appeal a waste of our time (the likely default), the response will likely hitting the permanent ban button. This temporary host-level authority will remain in effect until we announce we are back and active. We expect everyone to give Sunflower and the rest of the staff their support while we are busy moving 1200+ miles.

b) Our annual fund drive should start on August 20th. It will be delayed this year probably until late September -- at the earliest.

Prayers and good energy for a safe and successful move are welcome. The packers start packing us up on August 22. Packing and loading should take 3-4 days. They we hit the road with all our dogs and cats. Travel will be likely slow given Lyric's MS and back issues -- perhaps only 4-5 hours of road time per day.

Best of luck with the move when it happens!

Many congrats!! I know you guys have wanted out of Texas for quite some time now. All the best of luck with the move and the new life in the Midwest that's nearly palindromic and nearly consonant-free (O-I-O)!

And PLEASE, register to vote in your new home! Unlike Texas, it's a swing state.
The first song sets the wheel in motion / The second is a song of love / The third song tells of Her devotion / The fourth cries joy from the sky above
The fifth song binds our fate to silence / and bids us live each moment well / The sixth unleashes rage and violence / The seventh song has truth to tell
The last song echoes through the ages / to ask its question all night long / And close the circle on these pages / These, the metamythos songs

Don't worry. We intend to vote in November -- and it will not be for Trump.

The admin is dead, long live the admin?  No, wait, the admin is vacationing (to do important things) may we prosper under the admin until the old admin comes back.. That;s better.

I'm picturing the board loading for an administrator with a big shiny red button next to each poster... XD
