I'm pretty sure now that I didn't think this through enough. (Which is odd, since usually it only takes me one or two days to decide something.) So this RfA has been '''withdrawn'''.

This RfA was closed as failed. | |

Toomai (talk • contribs • edit count • RFA page)[edit]
Please direct all discussions to the talk page.
Candidate, please summarize why you are running for adminship below.
Well then, how to start...I have no idea actually. Beginnings are not one of my strong points...Well, I guess I could give a list of my strong points:
- I'm generally good at the neutral point-of-view thing, and don't ever remember a time I started an argument online.
- I'm on here a lot. Recently, I've been on over an hour a day.
- I know a lot of
crapstuff when it comes to the Smash Bros. games, and if I don't know something, I do the research. - I know when to use serious business and humourous business.
- I have extreme spelling and grammar skills. (aka XtrEEM skillz)
- I'm an admin at the Banjo-Kazooie Wiki (which is kind of small) and the Mariology Forums (which have petered out recently). (Yes, I'm aware that off-sife admin-ness probably doesn't mean anything. But I stiff feel I should point it out.)
Is all that good enough for me to make a difference as an admin? I would think so.
...and, um, I suppose I've run out of things to say. Discuss, I guess. Toomai Glittershine The Table Designer 20:56, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure now that I didn't think this through enough. (Which is odd, since usually it only takes me one or two days to decide something.) So this RfA has been withdrawn. Toomai Glittershine The Table Designer 01:52, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
