Hey, look! A blog!
So, the past few days have been fun. Research: Paranormal is currently on a week-long investigation of the Shanley Hotel in Napanoch, NY. We made our way up on Tuesday, stopping for the night in Gettysburg and meeting one of our fans (that's weird to say, we have fans). The next morning, we toured the Jenny Wade house and stopped by the North Carolina monument on the Gettysburg battlefields.
We even broke out some equipment and had an impromptu investigation with the Ghost B… Continue

Good Morning, Nerdfighters!
It's Wednesday October, 7th!
No wait. This isn't a Vlogbrothers video. Is it? -checks- Nope, it's not. This is your weekly blog post about the blogs. Kind of ironic, isn't it? A blog post about blogs. I could write an entire post about how ironic that is, but I'll spare you all of that idea.
Before I get to the blogs, I'll introduce myself briefly and tell you what I hope to do while I retain my title of blog ningmaster. As John said on his video, I'm Sara a.k.a. C… Continue
Okay. So, I might as well try, right?
Okay. I'm Abigail. I like art and music and theatre. I love John and Hank Green. I love the Nerdfighters, as well as most art geeks, theatre nerds, and band geeeeks. I love my boyfriend and my friends and my family. I like funny people and unusual people and I like feeling like I belong. I love marching band and our annual musical, but I can't throw a football to save my life.
I was looking through the Ningmaster positions and the thing is, I can't deal wit… Continue

Hello Ningmaster Tom!
I don't wanna sound too much like an idiot, so I'll just put down the basics! :D
I'd like to apply to become an Images Ningmaster because photography is really important to me, but so is viewing other people's photography. i also have high appreciation for artwork :) i love looking through the nerdfighter's random work because it always seems to make me laugh. i'd just really love to share that with everyone.
if i was selected for the images ningmaster position, i… Continue

So there you have it, my ningmaster application, ideally I'd like to be the Convict Ningmaster (Ningmaster from Australia, who keeps the wheels turning while others are catching some Zs), but I could easily do Chat Ningmaster (or assistant chat ningmaster), Forum Ningmaster, wikiNingmaster (I am quite well versed with media wiki practices and mark up) and even Photos Ningmaster.
Summary of points expressed in the video:
I would make a great book club ningmaster here because:
1) I love to read. I read 3+ books a week, not including college work, which usually tacks on an extra 2-5 short stories and novella's.
2) I enjoy *almost* ever genre. I'll read anything once, and once I've started something, i HAVE to finish it, even if i don't like it, because I believe in the overall experience of literature.
3) I am double majoring in English and Business, because I desire to go into publishing. A "job" recommending wh… Continue

So, I’ve decided that I would quite like the illustrious duty of becoming a Ningmaster. This, therefore, is my application for said job.
Why should I be a Ningmaster? Well for one thing I have created and administered the ning for my own collab channel Nerdfightastic, which people seem to like and gave me a bit of experience with how all the ins and outs of the ning work. Also I would REALLY love the opportunity and I’m abo… Continue
Ok, so a few days ago Ningmaster Katie was in the Nerdfighters chat, and I asked her how one becomes a Ningmaster. She said to wait for John to say they need more of them and then apply. And what happens within 24 hours of that conversation? Yes, it seems as if it were fate.
So, here is my hat to be tossed into the ring... er.. Ning.
I wish to become a Chat or Forum Ningmaster. I already far exceed the qualities needed for chat Ningmaster, William can vouch for our epic battle against the trol… Continue
I have not been a nerdfighter for long, but I would love to be a Ningmaster! More specifically, I am applying for Books Ningmaster or ??? Ningmaster. My name is Becca (or Iynq, doesn't matter what you call me) and I am 18 years old. I just started college studying linguistics.
I would like to be considered for Books Ningmaster because I love to read and write. Well, not essay writing, but story writing! I also work as a page at my city's library (which is an amazing 100 ft from my house!). I com… Continue

Hello Nerdfighteria!
I'm Ashley- I am a nineteen year old college student from Massachusetts. My major is Fine Arts, and I currently work as a Graphic Designer. I would love to be the Images Ningmaster.
I think that I would be a fitting person for the role of Images Ningmaster because I am pretty active here on the Ning, and I would love to contribute to the community on a bigger scale. The photos section is probably my favorite place on the Ning, and I always looked forward to the weekly Imag… Continue
Wow, gosh. Ningmaster applications again! Exciting! I’d been wondering when this was going to happen! Exclamation marks, exclamation marks!
Okay, enough exclaiming for now.
So obviously, the reason I’m so excited for these things is because I’d really, really like to be a Ningmaster. My first choice would be to have the position of Books Ningmaster, since that’s probably what I know most about and pay most attention to. I’d like to be a professional writer one day, but in the mean time, I just… Continue

OK, I'm not really sure how to put this but here it goes.
I'm UberFridgeKing I'm 22 and this is my application for chat Ning-master.
I have been a nerd-fighter for about a year and in that time I have spent most of my time on the chat so I have. In the time since I joined I have noticed that there have been more and more people who arrive and disturb the chat from being the normal fun newcomer friendly place it should be. I like talking to everyone on the chat and there are times when it gets… Continue
I don't know whether to call this an "application", exactly, but I do think that I may have something important to offer here.
I'm a huge wiki-nerd, and I know very well how wikis work. To be honest, the very reason that I haven't done anything on this one is that the issues that currently prevent it from being fully awesome are a bit too much for my OCPD to handle. I'd dearly love the opportuni… Continue

hi *waves to who ever is reading this*
As you can tell I'm Bexxie, I'm 15 and I'm a nerdfighter that's in Wales...
I understand that there are a lot of nerdfighters applying to be ningmasters as I am doing at this very moment.
One of the questions that I think needs to be answered in this application is:
Why do I want to be a ningmaster for the chat?
I am on the chat a lot and I know how annoying and offensive trolls can be. I really want to help prevent the trolls from offending fellow nerdf… Continue
Like many other nerdfighters on the ning, I would love to be a ningmaster. More specifically, a books ningmaster. Reading is my absolute favorite thing to do, and I do it ALL THE TIME.
I also love talking about what I read, and I even keep my own YA book review blog (http://freneticreader.blogspot.com/), where I review and talk about books every day. (And by "every day", I actually mean every day. My book blogging friend and I are having a competition to see who can blog the most days in a row,… Continue

Immediately after seeing I'd have to write a blog post to prove my worthiness of ningmaster Image person, I got hit with a flashback of Honors English with my teacher hovering over me and rasping that we had 20 minutes left. My eyes would always get really wide as I stared at my unfinished closing paragraph that seems to have hit a wall made of unicorn. But enough with horrible nostalgia, on with the adrenaline fueled writing.
I've always thought I'd like to take that position: surfing through… Continue
Tom/other Ningmasters/random Nerdfighters,
I am applying for two positions, books Ningmaster (first choice) and blogs Ningmaster (second choice).
I think I would be a good Ningmaster for several reasons, so I've compiled a list.
1. I am always on the Ning. Literally. Usually, I'm reading blog posts or commenting on forums so becoming a Ningmaster would be a very easy adjustment.
2. I have been a faithful Nerdfighter since October 22nd 2008 (to be fair, two months of that time I was more of a… Continue
Hello to all who somehow end up reading this.
So even though I usually don't write blog posts on here (or on my own blog for that matter) I figured now would be a good time to write here seeing as the title ningmaster sounds way too cool to pass up. The two positions I am applying for are the book ningmaster and the video ningmaster.
So first things first, why these two positions? Well for the reason that I will always be reading a book (even when I'm supposed to be reading for school), and I… Continue

Okay, so I first watched "Special Friday Video! (On Saturday)" on YouTube and when I checked the ning main page Ningmaster Tom had posted a detailed blog bost on the subject of new Ningmasters.
So, this is my application for a post as either an image Ningmaster, or a Blog Ningmaster.
So what makes you Ningmaster Material?
I think I am Ningmaster material despite the fact that I've only been on the ning since about January this year, I am on the ning about ninety-nine percent of m… Continue
It's been God-knows-how-many weeks since I blogged, and I don't really have an excuse. I'm just terrible with deadlines, even more when I'm not particularly enjoying stuff. Not to say that I don't enjoy watching pictures and talking about them, because I do. But writing this blog is always a surprising amount of html and copying and pasting picture links and picture locations and D
