I think the issue is what is conditioned on what else.

a) If it is this thing, where do you find it?
b) If it is this place, how likely is it to be there?

White boards are found in offices, in public & private schools, in public & private colleges, and in homes. I would guess that more than half of all whiteboards are in private industry. The answer to (A) is not “public”. But if the place in B is public, sure, it’s pretty like to be there.

Anyway… Moving on…

I assume soyleche is asking about it’s existence 300 years ago?

Also, this thread is getting long. And i find it hard to navigate long threads in this system. I assume others do, too. I propose splitting it up. (Which i can do.) Any objections? Stuff i should consider before doing so?

How easy / hard is it to move stuff?

Maybe periodically move anything prior to the penultimate game to an “archive” thread?

I was thinking i might create a thread for each game, and link them.

I wouldn’t bother for the old games, but maybe going forward that would be good.

Preface: Trying to understand the logistics, not critiquing the plan.

  • Will you number the new threads? How will we keep track of which thread is the current? (I generally search for threads if they’re not in the top ~10 latest listed, rather than scrolling)
  • This thread will get bumped only when a new game starts, with the link to the new game, based on someone winning a prior game?
  • Will the person who wins start a new game thread, or do we continue using the most recent game thread and then you will move into a new one?

I don’t really have a problem navigating long threads. Almost all of the activity is in the last couple dozen posts or so. If I need to go farther back it can be annoying, but the search function works well, and I’m not sure it would be less annoying to have to figure out which of the other several threads the info I am looking for is in.

That being said - I by no means consider myself the “owner” of any thread I start. They belong to the community, and the community can do with them as they please. I guess it would be cool to have started “the longest thread”, but we aren’t there yet anyway…

I support any action that the group decides on. I mostly just want to play a game. :slight_smile:
