No problem, no offense here. The Song Title thread can die if it wants to, 1706 posts is enough. This one will die soon enough, it’s not as easy as the Song Titles.

Like I could control it quadruple-posting in the first place… :rolleyes: If you have such a problem with my threads or game threads in general… perhaps you shouldn’t open them!

This isn’t a post-padding kind of thing… it’s like what someone said on this board some time ago. If people have interest in these threads, they’ll go on. If not, it’ll die. I don’t have a problem with my threads dying at all, in case you think that way.

That’s all I have to say on that one.

That said…

Damn, I’ve seen a few threads that waaay longer than this, maybe tooo long. I don’t think it’s my place to go into that thread and tell them to shut up though. We have folks who take care of that kinda thing.  
I really enjoyed this thread the first night. Since then it’s been gasping a little. But at first the boards were really clickin 'cause them durn yankee dopers were blacked out.  
If you’ll look to see how quick the responses were coming back. There were only a couple of repeat answers and we were playing four different threads simultaneously.

**t-keela** , exactly my point. I might think that certain threads go on too long and / or should be put out of their misery, but I wouldn’t post something telling everyone to stop posting in it. Thanks for your comments. 🙂
