As I'm sure many of you have noticed, we have a rather new admin (He's been on the site since 2009, but not an active poster). His name is nouveaux. I know many of you are curious about him and would like to get to know him better. Well, here's your chance!

Much like the "interview' threads that nder does, here's a Q&A with nouveaux!


Thanks,
Jazaray

How long have you had the newly appointed Admin title? How are you and Leshrac aquainted?

How active are you going to be?

Are you going to be involved in making updates or changes to how the site functions?

Will you make sure new sets are added to the price guide/search function in a timely manner?

I'd like to know more about you personally. Where'd you go to school? Are you married? Have kids?

Do you play Magic? How long, if so? Any favorite cards, formats, decks?

I was in #MOTL when you said you were apprehensive about answering questions about MOTL's future. That said, what would you like to say in that regard?

Thanks Nouveaux for taking an interest in fixing up this site. It's appreciated.

I'd like to ask:

What do you plan on doing overall to change motl?
Do you have any plans on getting additional help (janitors, mods, etc.)?
How did you manage to 'Come to power' so to say? Many members have made offers to buy this site or offer time/skills to help, but very few (if any at all) were accepted.

Thanks for taking some time to answer these questions. Looking forward to your responses.

Sounds like a bit of an echo at this point, but I think it's important to ask the questions below. I'll likely have more questions depending on the answers that are given. You'll have to forgive my initial skepticism; it's a tad shocking to have someone come out of nowhere and take over site maintenance. I don't have any problems with it in principle, but I'd like to have a better sense of who's holding the reins of power now.

*Who are you? (Not a personal question, but more of a MOTL community-oriented question.)

*Where did you come from? (Again, not personally; internet/MTG-community-wise.)

*How did you come to power, and why? (What with 15 posts and zero refs over 3 years, it doesn't look like you've been spending a whole lot of time here, unless it was under a different account.)

*What (if anything) is happening to Leshrac and Inca911 now that you're an admin?

I will attempt to answer all the questions but it may take some time. I appreciate everyone's patience.

Hi!

nouveaux means "new" in french, do you speak french? If not, where does this nick come from then?

Do you have any skill in programming language(s) Which one(s)?

Thanks and welcome as new admin!

Nouveaux.... are you French or your nickname is an inside joke/statement?

Do you plan on making a sub-forum for MTGO players?

I'm about to have to switch out computer towers and am going through my data archives. Would now be a good time to send someone the list of my 81 original references if I still have my document backup? No one knows why MOTL flushed said list a couple of years ago as it did not happen during any other site problems I heard about. I had emailed Leshrac a couple of times but never got an answer. If my profile is intact, it should include my email.
