OUT OF GAME: What is the etiquette in this thread about posting too frequently? I like to try to keep things moving as often as I can. But at the same time, it feels a bit untoward to have two or more of my own contributions in the same list. ---

I try not to post more than once or twice per list but there are some that just grind to a halt for whatever reason (and many are good topics too!) and then I start to feel like it’s my personal mission to get everyone through that list. ---
