Wow, having notifs enabled would certainly help, wouldn't it? I don't know how I managed that. ><;;

The mods so far agree that such an event could definitely be possible, but to switch Gold from a canon character to an AU would involve updating his app and sending it in to us. You don't have to wait for an open app period to do this, it can be e-mailed directly to us. This is just to keep everyone on the same page.
