I recently acquired my first editorship, and it's an interesting story.

In the summer I was contributing to various shows. Then I thought, "Hey, The Munsters doesn't have an editor. I have 56 points, so I could easily become it!" So I contributed, and got 80 points. But I wasn't the editor, due to a "retired editor bug." I needed another point. So I contributed and was expecting to wake up to become the editor the next day, which happened to be the first day of school. I woke up, looked at the guide--and two people had surpassed my points! The guide had been dormant for weeks and months!

I checked out the new editor, studog2961. I viewed "him" as a nefarious villain who wanted to steal guides--after all, "he" did not list the show on his favorites. I regularly checked up on "his" guide, to see if "he" felt any remorse. After the initial shock, I didn't view "him" as negatively as I once had--especially when I found out "he" was a woman.

So I calculated that if I wrote a recap for every episode, I would become the editor. But that would be a very difficult task. I wrote some anyway, and studog made me trusted. She sent me very friendly PMs and helped me become the editor by telling me I could rewrite summaries since they were copied from another site. So I did, and now I'm the editor.

So, some good things came out of this. I know now that studog is not a malevolent person, and the guide is in much better shape than it would have been if I had gotten it with 81 points. And it will now be hard to overpass my points.

If only someone would contribute something.
