A thought: Designated site mods should remain owner because sandbox doesn't need a representative owner.
An owner would likely do more harm to sandbox than good. It attracts ego-driven candidates that are more likely to abuse power or simply make controversial decisions.
An owner's biggest responsibility is to appoint a good team of mods that will enforce the rules. A site mod can accomplish this with community input and put up a wallpaper and silly polls every once in a while; similar to hima's role.
While I don't understand the need for an owner to be very active (They don't have any active responsibilities that can't be handled by sandbox mods in a skype group) they are active. This would also help build a better relationship between sandbox and site mods.
More importantly, site mods can be held accountable by other site mods as opposed to waiting for Lucid to reply to emails every time we need a change in leadership.
Its more important to avoid a bad owner than try to guess who would be a great one.
why does sandbox even need an owner? sandbox was pretty good before there were any owners. all the previous owners did nothing but secretly ban people from the lobby chat or in some cases even ban people totally from the lobby and when this was brought to site mod's attention they just brushed it off with "it's their lobby then can do whatever they want".
imo just have no owner and let the site mods deal with any actual rule breakings.
