It has been ages since I've paid any attention to the RfA drama machine Taking a look this afternoon, I see that the artist formerly known as Steve Crossin (who famously played "borrow my mop" with Peter Symonds and Chet Long a few years ago) is back at it.

Steve is a nice guy and he got the short end of the stick as part of that idiotic escapade with those teenage idiots. I would like to imagine that he'd spend his time in pursue of more meaningful adventures - but if he gets adminship, it would be a welcome sign of a nice guy who (for once) wins the Wiki-game.

He withdrew. Sad, it started off well then it pretty much tanked. I wonder how many opposes were informed off wiki though?

There did appear to be some canvassing from the opposers. I hope Steve doesn't feel too bad about this. RfA is stressful enough without the crap that he got put through.

I had a sense that there may have been a bit of canvassing going on. The editor that came back after 11 months to oppose me, and the retired editor set it off. But these things are hard to prove. Ah well, not much I can do. Shit happens (IMG:smilys0b23ax56/default/biggrin.gif)
