Please don't vote for more because you think it will increase your chances of being one. Just vote on how many you think we should promote (without retiring any of the current ones, active or inactive).
I say 3-4. We currently have about four and three are on and off (Jeremy doesn't count). Other than that, the other mods all appear to either be in the same timezone, or they just don't show up on TBT. Regardless, I don't think we should have more than four. We don't want this to become EAC where anyone that wants to be a mod can be one and we have 20 mods running around.
i said 4
but i don't really know the extent of a mod's power, so i'm a bit uninformed on this choice
i'd say if they're expected to help out the shop/host events now and then, four would be great. PC, Nintendo, Sony, Xbox. PC basically covers everything unrelated as well, since you can't do offline stuff without a computer.
but if mods aren't going to be very focused on shop business/events, then i'm going to have to agree that 3 would be enough, though 4 will leave that one-person cushion for just-in-case inactivity comes up.
if all else fails, i guess you can keep one or two on-call mods in case one goes mia (a quick promotion) though that's kinda unrealistic.
