Seeing as there is a new election this year - I would like to ask last year's elected moderators (and all current mods about their election/if you can remember that far back) a few questions on the nature of views and thougts pre and post election.

• How/(if)has being elected as a Moderator changed the way you do things?
• What have been some challenges in adapting to being a mod?
• Victories/Good war stories?
• And Lastly what are some inspirational words for this years candidates.
