You have to leave your accounts, possessions and any valuables into the trust of a single person. It has to be someone from Anandtech you don't personally know - only someone you know due to reading their posts / conversing publicly on this board. It can't be a family member or anyone else you know IRL.

Basically, who would you trust based on their posting history to have access to all this stuff while you're gone? Trust they won't spend your money, they will keep care of your stuff, etc.

Based on posting history alone, I would pick Markbnj. He seems to have a level head point of view on things, and he doesn't seem like someone who would take my stuff. Hope I'm not wrong!

What's the policy on access to their spouse, children, and in-laws?
Whoever you select would make those kinds of decisions.

This question is unanswerable, as I'd have to bring in data given only in L&R to accurately describe reasons.

I have to agree with Markbnj ... if can't trust Woodie Guthrie who can you?

I'll ignore mods cause they already have a record holding a position of trust(too easy). I'll go with Red Squirrel. Aside from his somewhat whacky posts, he seems like a good guy, and likely won't move off anytime soon. He's also unattached to women, so there isn't any worry of an estrogen poisoned psycho wrecking my stuff :^D

lxskllr - we share a lot of opinions on how the world should work and how people should behave. He seems trustworthy to me.

All I have of value are these mirrored sun-glasses and one, or possibly two, jerk socks. I would only trust Mayne.

I appreciate the confidence. I'd guard your stuff with my life, almost literally. I wouldn't put myself too far out there for easily replaceable things, but for irreplaceables(pictures, family artifacts, whatever...), I'll go down trying to protect them :^)
