My position assumes as a premise that my take is the correct take.Thing is, your definition of "best days" and mine may or may not line up, as D&D has been so many different things over the years and editions.
That said, going into a job like that with any attitude other than "the best is yet to come" probably means you're doing it wrong.
@Meech17 - I hereby put my hand up to volunteer as your running mate.
