I have reviewed all the applications that I have received, and I have made my decision on DGM. Hades (known to some as "FA Joe") is the new Deputy Grand Master. There were numerous reasons for my choice, but foremost among them was his set of skills which complement my own. That is to say: (a) he knows how plotlines should work, (b) he has a plethora of interesting ideas regarding DB plots and competitions, and (c) he's eager to get to work on the above.
I haven't told him how much trouble Death is going to give him, but that's ok. He'll find out soon. >:F
