Oh Mune. You continue to kick ass in all the ways I do not kick ass. The phrase "Mune is the nice one" comes through both personality wise, but also - in their way of going about things, specifically, MAAly things. Mune sees the good in people, not just in their inherant personage (yes this makes sense dammit), but also in the work that they do. I am forever thankful that you are able to temper my inherant old man bear ways with your nice oneness, and, you know, your overall competence and understanding of our internet space wizardry club.

One of the most important, and generally unstated roles of a DC Praetor (especially in the MAA world)? Reality checks, or something like that, and Mune continues to fufill this role in spades. Mune has offered opinions on policy choices, or recommendations that are sometimes in line with my own to verify my own lack of senility. Sometimes though, they demonstrate that I am off my game – or I have not considered a position or opinion. Or sometimes? Sometimes I am just flat out wrong – and Mune points it out and corrects me - in his nice one way. For all of that? I am forever grateful.

Since Mune's last MAAly recognition in June, they have contninued the day to day tasks of approving (almost always) and denying (rarely) competitions, promotion requests, medal requests (with the added fun of non-site XP), and the longer term goal of figuring out (just like in June), what non-site XP means for our leaders, for our members, for everyone that engages in our club outside of the defined parametres of things captured by the site. Additionally, Mune has started (but by no means finished) the purging of the Wiki of staledated, and redundant MAA and MAA adjacent pages, which has included collating a list in coordination with the Beak.

For your continued non-site-XP work on making the DB work, and your overall assistance to the health of club, thank you.
