**I accept.**

You might know me for the following contributions:

1. **Bug Reports:** Numerai has incredible strengths, but quality assurance isn’t one of them. That is why they rely on the community to help identify bugs. To be frank, I don’t know anyone who has reported more mid-to-high severity issues than I have - ranging from [40% overnight drawdowns](https://discord.com/channels/894652647515226152/1093965964422434827/1456309719839801435) and [missed payouts](https://discord.com/channels/894652647515226152/1471898708844089449) to [Sybil attack vectors](https://discord.com/channels/894652647515226152/1093965964422434827/1247334917885526037) and, most recently, a security vulnerability related to address poisoning in the Numerai wallet (reported in private, now fixed). If you enjoy not losing money on technicalities, you’re welcome.
2. **Radically Transparent Opinions:** I’m your personal mix of Mark Baum and Michael Burry from _The Big Short_, multiplied by two. I don’t shy away from asking the uncomfortable questions that make the project better for everyone, even when the team [doesn’t have the answers](https://discord.com/channels/894652647515226152/1233149704003518535/1471591554991919315) yet. I also contribute [my experience](https://discord.com/channels/894652647515226152/1233149704003518535/1494005339689975968) and [opinions](https://discord.com/channels/894652647515226152/1233149704003518535/1359592583587692594) wherever I can provide the most value to the community.
3. **The YAND Dashboard:** Whether you vote for me or not, I will continue to improve YAND - my gift to the community, the apples-to-apples comparison [dashboard for Numerai](https://forum.numer.ai/t/yand-yet-another-numerai-dashboard/6792/17) users and models. If elected, I will look into migrating it from free hosting (potentially under the Numerbay umbrella) to address performance issues due to free-tier server limitations.
