Xiggie is truly excellent with the things behind the Wiki, such as templates, helping Users, and images. He's responsible for getting use great PhotoShop cut-outs from all of the latest scans!

I apologize for not being as active lately; blah blah job blah blah family blah blah. I'll probably jump in more when ''358/2 Days''' comes out. And I try to check the forums and deletions page at least once a night for any big things going on. If there's something I miss, give me a big ol' bonk on the head on my talk page. | |||
I, for one, welcome our new <s>overlords</s> admins and mods whoever they may be. Everyone up there is honestly a great choice, and I can see them doing great things as staffers. It's going to be a tough decision.}} | |||

{{DTN|time=23:39, 28 August 2009 (UTC)|text=I apologize that I couldn't be here earlier; house remodel and other events NOT RELATED TO DISSIDIA have kept me away for a few days. | |||
Thanks to those who voted for me. I just want to say, though, that I'm not the most deserving one here. Being totally honest <small>and hopefully not concited-sounding</small>, I think that I do deseserve some spot on the Staff, and <u>I would happily accept one</u>. However, there are some Users who are much more deserving than me. Kryten probably deserves it the most, although my vote doesn't go to him because that I think that Kryten is bound to become an admin any day. | |||
ENX, Marexl, and NS, you are all good editors, but the most important thing about being a member of the Staff in past Staff elections has been having Mainspace edits. I actually remember that something came up restricting Xiggie from becoming a mod in the distant past because he didn't have many Mainspace edits. Compared to the Users such as myself, HeartOfOblivion, and Urutapu, you three just fall in comparison. You are all great editors, but perhaps now isn't the right time for adminship. | |||
And now, for my votes: my vote without-a-doubt goes to Xiggie. A highly-overlooked part of this Wiki is the images, templates, and helping other Users. Xiggie is excellent at all of these, and has been helping out this Wiki for a long time. In the event of Xiggie getting frozen to death <small>(He is in Iceland after all!)</small>, I would vote for HeartOfOblivion. He has done so much in such a short amount of time compared to lots of the rest of us; such dedication deserves a spot on the Staff. In the event that HeartOfOblivion has a seizure from playing Dissidia too much and dies, I vote for Urutapu. Another overlooked part of the Wiki-work is the Japanese nihongo in the pages, and Urutapu is resonsible for lots of it. He is another very deserving member. I actaully really wish that he would create a User page, so that he can be on the Community List and be recognized for all of his work! | |||
Again, thanks to all who vote for me. I hope that those who are truly most deserving are the Users who receive spots on the Staff. Sincerely, DTN.}} | |||
{{Marexl|time=00:32, 29 August 2009 (UTC)|text=I never said I wanted to be admin. It would be nice but even I know that title is too big for me. I think (not sounding conceited) it would be better if I was Mod, DTN}} | |||
{{EO|time=23:47, 28 August 2009 (UTC)|talktext=I already know that. But if someone votes...you can't really change your mind. Even if I don't win either position, there is always next year and so on. I'm honored just to be nominated. While this has been stressful on me, I am not quitting. And congrats to all nominated.}} | |||
{{KrytenKoro|I just want to make it clear - this ''is'' just a vote on a website. We shouldn't let it get us down, even if the winner does get to share Paopu with Kairi. | |||

{{BebopKate|time=04:16, 29 August 2009 (UTC)|text=Oh, Kryten, don't set your sister on fire. Gas is expensive. Besides, I find flesh-eating ants to be far more effective. ^_^ | |||
And yes, remember as the wiki evolves, there will always be room for new admins. This wiki has grown so much in just the last year-and-a-half since I became a member, and with the ''Kingdom Hearts'' franchise healthy and kicking, there will be plenty more to come.}} | |||
