Nomination
– I won't be very active on Wikipedia for a while, but my legitimate alternate account says he's gonna pick up the slack. And I figured, "Why not nominate him for adminship? Seems like he'd make a dang good admin!" ;) Happy April Fools Day! The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 02:06, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A: Probably the work I've done for my main account.


 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * A: Plenty. I'm a bad boy. ;)


 * 25. Like me, do you not know how to count?
 * A: Nope

I'm pretty sure there's a typo in the application. "Darn" good makes much more sense. This lack of attention to detail does not bode well. Josh Parris 02:22, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
