@Flaming The reason Multi skipped/made an exception is because Chatmod -> Admin system was still in place and didn't get officially replaced by Chatmod -> Discuss -> Content Mod -> Admin until right after the Summer 2016 Polls. The practice of Chatmod -> Discuss -> Content ->Admin was starting to trend for some time ago (possibly due to being easier to attain than admin status), such examples include Ethan or you, Flaming.

If you look into the Summer 2016 blog, you'd see my comment in July 11 about that.
