My RFA

Now that my RFA has concluded successfully only one final, but important, task remains: pointing fingers and assigning blame. So here is my shortlist of the persons responsible:

Editors like RegentsPark, Priyanath, Dwaipayan, and ~~Docku~~, ~~Like I Care~~ CarTick who goaded me to run for adminship.
RegentsPark and SpacemanSpiff who wrote blush-worthy nomination statements for my RFA. It's not that they lied exactly; lets just say that David Ogilvy and P. T. Barnum would have been proud.
Several editors who asked penetrative questions at the RFA, which allowed me to address issues that I had blithely overlooked earlier.
A cheering mob of 112^§ voters who took the time to evaluate my edit-history and answers, and still added their name to the Support column.
Lastly, a select few reviewers who were amused by my punning. Alas, these Victor Frankensteins may come to regret the monster they just created.

To all these editors I express my sincere thanks. And to the rest, I can only say, Don't blame me! Blame them!. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 04:36, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

§: Jayen466, you may think you escaped on a technicality, but I still hold you responsible

Congrats to Abecedare on becoming an admin following successful RFA, and also congrats to RegentsPark and SpacemanSpiff for beating me here. =) The admins' reading list, new admin school, and how-to guide are good places to start if uncomfortable. -- Pak aran 20:05, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! Good luck avoiding tar pits!--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:06, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats from myself, especially for having an unopposed RfA! You're one of the strongest candidate's we've had in a while; I have every confidence that you'll continue to handle decisions and potential conflicts with excellent calm and good judgement. :) JamieS93 20:13, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks all! ... but I am a bit confused and disappointed. I haven't received the missives and access codes from the Supreme Cabal yet, and I am still having to wear my pants one leg at a time. At least the bumps on my head are developing nicely, although to be frank, that feels just like an headache. Have to rush off now but will keep you abreast of developments. :-) Abecedare (talk) 20:37, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well done YellowMonkey (bananabucket) 01:44, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats. on your (near-)unanimous election! Very rare to get such unanimity around here. Bwrs (talk) 03:23, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks YM and Bwrs. It was smoother and more congenial than I expected. And it turned out to be unanimous after the single oppose changed his vote - that was icing on the cake, although we shouldn't read much into it. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 03:31, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! :)--Dwaipayan (talk) 04:13, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Dwaipayan. Abecedare (talk) 04:36, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations! I'm sure you'll do a great job with the mop. :) Shreevatsa (talk) 04:57, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Shreevatsa. Abecedare (talk) 04:59, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats. Work hard :) --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 05:31, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks red. And speaking of hard work, I plan to take another look at Swaminarayan this weekend. Abecedare (talk) 05:47, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats. You deserved it. 122.169.41.92 (talk) 06:09, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sure you will be a great admin. Well Done. Aaroncrick (talk) 06:16, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations. Here are what pass for words of wisdom from the puppy:

Remember you will always protect the wrong version.
Remember you must always follow the rules, except for when you ignore them. You will always pick the wrong one to do. (See #5)
Remember to assume good faith and not bite. Remember that when you are applying these principles most diligently, you are probably dealing with a troll.
Use the block ability sparingly. Enjoy the insults you receive when you do block.
Remember when you make these errors, someone will be more than happy to point them out to you in dazzling clarity and descriptive terminology.
and finally, Remember to contact me if you ever need assistance, and I will do what I am able.

Congrats, Abecedare. 111/0/0! Never seen anything like that before. Either you truly have no enemies, the likely scenario of course, or the opposers were snuffed out by RegentsPark's goon squad before they reached the polling booth. :) If it is the latter, please let me know; I might need that muscle on some problem pages myself.
