Congratulations jtbell! Promoted to Mentor

  • Thread starter Greg Bernhardt
  • Start date
In summary, jtbell has been promoted to mentor and will be roaming for the meantime. Sadly, dduardo and hypnagogue are leaving staff due to real life obligations. However, jtbell's promotion is well-deserved and they will be a valuable addition to the mentor team. Moonbear is currently running IR as Tom may be MIA due to teaching classes, and there is a backlog in the IR forum that needs to be reviewed. Anyone with access to the IR Court Room is encouraged to help review, and please send a bulletproof vest to the person delivering decision letters.

A murder of mentors? (that, and crash, were always my favorites!)

Congratulations jtbell, you are a welcome addition to the mentor team.

Sad to see dduardo and hypnagogue are not able to continue with their mentorship; I wish you both the very best out there in the rest of the universe.

What rest of the universe? You think that there's something beyond this? :eek:

Moonbear's running IR right now --- Tom come up MIA? Haven't seen much activity from him lately.
 
  • #16
He got really busy with teaching classes this summer, and we're sending a search party out looking for him now. We just have such a backlog in the IR forum that I rolled up my sleeves and did the dirty work of getting the submissions awaiting review moved out where the reviewers can see them! So, anyone who has access to the IR Court Room, PLEASE pop in and help review! And if someone has a bulletproof vest for me to borrow, I'd really appreciate it if they could get that to me before I start delivering the decision letters! I heard that being a messenger is a high risk job!
