[First, read this!](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=552461)

A few years back, I ran a contest to pick out my new board name. Not having learned my lesson the first time, I am now offering all of you the chance to pick my new title. This contest will run for five days, and the title with the most votes at the end will be chosen, _providing it passes muster with The Powers That Be._

Any questions? 😃

Since it appears that mods keep their “Moderator” title below their custom one, I’d suggest one that takes advantage of that fact.

To go with BitT’s Suggestion:  
“The Littlest”  
“Did somebody ask for a”  
“Your Everloving Helpful,”

My Personal Choices:  
“Machete Wielding Panda”  
“Insert Title Here”  
“Today your Mod, Tomorrow the World”

\*Actually I REALLY like "_The Littlest"_ It grows on you after seeing it…
