Congrats to the winners! This was a hard contest but it was fun. I look forward to the final community poll -- I haven't even looked at my model since around the time of the CCGs so I'm curious to see who it declares the champion (my last ranking had tOSU and ND at 1 and 2, respectively, so I'm feeling good about how it's calibrated).

And to the users, I want to echo OP: I'm also open to all feedback and suggestions for the mod team. I didn't seek to be one, but I guess being active resulted in me being appointed. So I just try to keep the community going and also hope we can grow alongside the rest of the Fediverse. I try to be pretty hands-off w/ regards to mod actions and I'm grateful to all of you who are able to talk trash while keeping things clean.

One thing I'd like to put out there is that we would like to get a bot set up for next year to at least automate the posting of game threads. The founding mod, Manibusan, had done some research into this and I think we came to the conclusion last season that neither of us had the time and/or scripting comfort level to figure it out. With how tech-savvy Lemmy is, I'm sure some of you might be able to help out. So if anyone is interested, let me know and I'd be happy to share the resources we had discussed.
