How many category editor applications will Nigel receive?
27 to be exact and in general very high quality. This is going to be tough.
Background:
There are looking for 6 category editor positons, how many applications will he actually get?
Nigel will not count any clearly fake or ridiculous submissions in the total and will not be bidding on this market. (I did clear this market with him first, but he didn't give me any insight on the initial odds..)

@Jenni - that picture really made this question!
@ mrperfkt
I choose to interpret your query as a tacit endorsement of my unannounced candidacy for the esteemed position of category editor, if anyone in the community cared to proffer an opinion on whether I would be a good selection.... then far be it from me to stand in their way. May the best man win! Or, in keeping with a theme from this evening…May the best Person win! May the best half a dozen people win!
;)
b) yes, and jenni is by far the most active, polite, prof, and appropriate of the bunch. But, I'd say they are all just fine!
c) v&h would also get my vote. not only is he creative, but his markets are well thought out, well defined, and well documented.
d) mrperfkt would also get my vote.
e) if jenni puts in her app, though, she would definitely rise to the top of any short list.

I also am unofficially announcing that I threw my hat into the ring!
I told Nigel "Caveat Emptor!"
... I'm just kidding. seems to be a consensus. kudos to jenni :)
