One thing has certainly not changed–I still suck at this! Thanks for running it, though, **Rebo!** ---

> [@KneadToKnow](#): > > This was fun, and I didn’t do too badly for my first time. If only I had the time to bring Match Game back! Yeah - I’ve been looking at my Match Game templates, but my god, that game was time intensive to run. ---

Thank you for starting the feuds again!!! Such fun! And the 6-letter requirement made it a delightful challenge. ---

Woo hoo, a top 5 finish! That was great fun, thanks. Looking forward to the next one. I, too, remember when these things would be full if you didn’t get in on the first day. Hope we can achieve that again. ---

I’ve asked the mods to change the title to add “closed.” Do you think we should petition to have them in the Game Room, instead of here? ---

I don’t understand why the Game Room keeps coming up. As Chronos and Thudlow Boink have pointed out, the Feud is the very definition of a thread game. The game is played entirely within the thread. The Game Room is discussion about games and sports that take place outside the SDMB in the real world (or at least a different world in the case of video games). ---

I’m not a mod in either of those forums, but I don’t think that’ll fly. However you might be about to post a thread announcing the game in The Game Room and link to it here. You can reach out to those mods. But I do think if they become more frequent they will get more traction. I know a lot of people read by hitting New Posts, so this thread will show up there regardless of forum, once it gets busy. Also, put a link for the new one in the most recent one, so everyone who played it will be notified that a new one is up. I’ll change the title for you, since I’m stopping by. ---

> [@IvoryTowerDenizen](#): > > …you might be about to post a thread announcing the game in The Game Room and link to it here. It’s extra work, but this is probably the way to do it. It would be a thread about a game, so should be allowable.
