Long time capper The GrayZombie has been elected Mayor of the Capper Egroup. We wish Mr. Zombie congratulations, underwear, and braaaains. He’s posted his acceptance speech over at GlitterRocks’s Cap-Page Board.

Now, I could take this moment to split semantic hairs like how the title went from Mayor of the eGroup back when Soozcat held it to Capper Mayor now, or the fact that he really shouldn’t have said “I will not dictate how…Inventing Situations…[is] to be run” but rather “I can not”, but that would be petty. Oh wait, I guess I just did (Worst Hair Splitting. Ever.) If you haven’t checked out the egroup or Glitter’s yet, you should probably take a moment to do so, I’m confident they’ll just increase your appreciation of capping.

[Edit 1/12/7 2:00 AM] Just thought I should add some more thoughts: The egroup’s as close as we’re going to get to a public commons amongst the cappers. It may have some signal to noise issues and occasional delusions of grandeur, but every capper should at least poke their head in and get a feel for it and get to know some of your fellow cappers and have their say. If you don’t want your inbox brimming over in the heavy traffic times, just do the web only subscription and poke in every day or so.

The Cap-Page board is of course the opposition, but they’ve provided a fine refuge to many of the other cappers left high and dry by the loss of CT and may well have attracted more new cappers as this site has.
