-The way I see it, it's too much work to keep track of how long dead players 
have been gone, as only one has ever showed back up. (I think someone said 
they'd return, but I don't remember who.) So if e wants the title, I suppose 
that's reasonable - after all, e was around in the earliest days - but first 
I'd need to see that e deserved it. Basically, it's all well and good that e 
/was/ around all that time ago, but things have changed a little since. I 
think e's mostly to re-understanding the ruleset, but, for example, if 
someone like... *glances at dead players* Octagon, or gritter, or Turgul 
returned, that in and of itself would not make them qualify for a Council 
post.-
