    Personally, I'd prefer the new mayor to be somebody who has a deep and unshakable attachment to NDSU, but understand that to generate revenue, the new owners would probably want to run message boards for more than one school.

    The advantages to the community would be better tech, better social media integration, better ability to deal with high traffic, less personality-driven (*cough* Joel Heitkamp is a double-talking douchebag *cough*), more posters, and probably a lot of stuff I haven't even thought about.

    On the personal side, this would allow me to experiment with my hobby (the fan guide) which I could slap onto Azure and make into a web app with graphs and shite. Already got the data into sql server and all entity framework-ed up so I'm 1% there.)

    Any stipulations or concerns? (that don't involve drama.)
    Would it be too soon/dirty pool to nominate this for preposterous statement of the year and throw it up for a vote to the hall of shame? Hopefully someone steps up and keeps the community going.

    The only appropriate way to go about this is to start by nominating and voting on members of a committee who will develop a process to solicit and screen potential candidates for the replacement for the position.

    Well, I just wish the hell that SOMEBODY would have let Tony win a beer naming contest just once!

    (Oh sure...........I STILL would have bitched that I "lost" the contest. What's everybody's point?)

    I can't imagine who would want the crappy job.
