    Starting a Game Thread

    How about if we add a poll to those since most people seem to like it and it does not detract from the game thread in any way. You can easily make the poll end in 6 days so it stops before game time etc.

    Also for playoffs it is kind of nice to have this set up for historical purposes.

    I appreciate the thread starters a whole lot, thank you. If you don't like the suggestions do what you do but I think it would be a better way of doing things if we could get into that practice and it keeps me from doing a lot of extra **** to make things nice for us.

    Sounds reasonable. Then you dont have multiple threads about the same game.
    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.


    Opportunity is unattainable for most people because it is disguised as hard work!!

    I always start mine with polls. Everyone else needs to get on my level.

    Re: Starting a Game Thread

    I want you all to pay attention to what your cohorts are asking for this season in the game threads. If you take up the task then put the poll on it and make sure it closes once the game will start so people can't vote after the game. If you need help ask me and I will give the instructions but it is pretty simple to figure out.

    Another really good and nice thing to do is to post the link where we can either listen or watch the contest in the first post if you can. I know, I'm a demanding sumbitch but if you take a few minutes you can make a better thread so please give it a shot this season.

    Yo big bear. How do I go about adding a game poll to the NDSU vs Butler thread we already have? I tried to go and edit the post but I didn't see anything (I possibly missed it).
