Re: Forum or mailing list?

Yeah there probably is a mod for quick response. I've increased the number of posts per page to 30 and will increase it again if a lot of threads go above that length. I don't really like separate pages because you have to remember which one you've read up to, but there has to be some limit for the ...

Re: Welcome!

In that case, you've lost the bet (although they are much more likely to get away with it if they repeat in separate turns.)

Re: Forum or mailing list?

I did consider giving it more of a purple-and-pink tint but it's a huge amount of work to convert all the graphics, and having a website that looks similar but behaves differently might be more confusing. That said, if you want to have a go then I can send you the graphics.

I never knew you were a veggie, Dave. How did a red-blooded male like you get go over to the salady side?

Official mass noun dispute thread

Everyone loves arguing about mass noun plurals, and this seems like an ideal place to do it.

Re: Beatles poll

I feel a bit sorry for Ringo with no votes. He did the voice over for Thomas the Tank Engine, which deserves some credit at least.

Yes, it also makes it easier for recappers. I might make a new topic for each game automatically, so we don't end up with duplicate topics (although it's much less likely than on Yahoo.)
