Not to be rude but you don't really apply for Admin either... unless that's changed in the time I wasn't here.

matt and epicguy both applied for admin and ended up getting the position

Matt, Epicguy, and Dakota were already amongst the discussion of being promoted. Their applications were only made to seek interest in the position.

The talks were already underway, more of a formalized way to gauge community opinion as to which mod(s) to promote. Also Deadpool.
