Plans for my Large Normal have advanced to the point where I believe it's about time I ask for this:

Seeking Co-Moderator for a Large Normal game
(not backup mod), which has 24 players.

Beyond having the qualifications for the job of co-modding, I basically require the following:
-Actively relaying information to the moderator quicktopic (which I check daily and often hourly), everything from prods given to votecounts created to actions they've received (along with when the action was received) and such. This serves a multitude of functions, from good record keeping to making sure we don't double up on things to informing me that they have been done.
-Giving votecounts when I'm not around. I only have a few hours each day for MS (which may or may not be enough for me to get a votecount on every page--depends on the activity of the game :P), and never have weekends for MS, so weekend activity is a must.
-Handing out prods when I'm not around. (Mainly, weekends.)
-Being capable of intervening as a moderator would in issues, handling out warnings if necessary, and potentially needing to lock the thread. (Again, mainly for when I'm not around.)
-Being able to relay questions they are asked to the moderator quicktopic for me to see even when I'm away, and being able to relay my answers back if I cannot do so in a timely manner. (Again, this is why record keeping is going to be important.)

What I need the co-mod NOT to do, though, is...
-Answer questions themselves. This has a significant potential to create moderator dissonance between me and them; our answers should be unanimous.
-Post flips from lynches/kills/modkills without my flavor to go along with it unless I give permission. They should also wait a while to double-check with me that the flip is correct. (I would prefer, of course, to handle these situations personally, but if a lynch falls on the weekend, then I cannot personally attend to the lynch.)
-Make a severe moderator ruling, such as force-replacing or modkilling, without my approval first.


Having a co-mod who can do all of this is pretty much the only way my game can be guaranteed to run smoothly. It shouldn't be that hard; I'd be the one doing almost all of the work (unless something goes horribly, horribly wrong in my life :P), with most of the above merely as precautions I want to have in place as a "just in case". I can probably run a good game without a co-mod, but I prefer to have a guarantee (rather than mere probability) of it.

Anyone want to be my backup mod?

Your only responsibility is to insure that the game continues in the event of my sudden disappearance.

You actually have to mod a game in order to back-up I'm pretty sure.

And while I'm here, I'm willing to backup for all Newbie game mods. Just shoot me a PM and I'm your guy

The rules for backing up are the same as the rules for actual modding (except they're against separate limits), so a first time backing up for the Mini Normal queue is technically allowed. (But it'd be highly unusual, and in practice, Papa Zito backup-mods all the Mini Normal games simultaneously, because he's crazy.)

Hey! I'm sorry for not getting this sorted out earlier, but something's come up where I won't be around for 24-48 hours starting from the 15th March, and I don't have a backup mod for Newbie 1342, where Night 1 has just started. D: If anyone would be willing to be a backup for the rest of the game in case I disappear, and sort anything out that comes up while I'm away, that would be awesome. :)


Thanks RedPanda!
