I think you'll handle the role well. You've guided gamers before and you'll keep at it - this time with a title. 9 out of 10 people offered and accepted such a position would be corrupted by the relatively small amount of power.

Just use the first answer that comes to mind and see if it works. If in doubt, invoke the Rients rule of 1-2!" .. type of answer would probably not work for me.<br /><br />So... "S&W Idiot" or "Towne Foole" or some other self-deprecating name that you feel comfortable calling yourself.
