Quiet Feet posted:The main argument for one thread is that you might miss something if it's split. Meanwhile, it's been suggested that all you need to do to keep up with the megathread is skip chunks of it because, of course you can't read all of it. With split threads, you're guaranteed to not have the full experience.

Josh Lyman posted:As contradictory as this may seem, it's not that hard to block off 1:05pm-4:15pm if you want the full GDT experience. Quick bathroom breaks, don't go out for food. I'm not sure what this post is saying, but it is hilarious.

I think the speed of the megathreads is grossly exaggerated, and it's a lot more than just reaction posts which, by the way, can just be scrolled through really quickly, but whatever.

Probably Magic posted:I think the speed of the megathreads is grossly exaggerated, and it's a lot more than just reaction posts which, by the way, can just be scrolled through really quickly, but whatever. All the problems for both types of GDTs are grossly exaggerated and complete non-problems. Really split threads are just good because its easier for me to pick out the posts I want to read, aka the ones about the game I am actually watching, instead of all the bullshit posts made by lunatics about the games I do not care about in the slightest.

Borsche69 posted:This is the ideal situation that I initially suggested, with each game getting its own GDT. This would result in like 10 threads with maybe 7-12 posters max all just talking to each other for two pages and would be a boring pathetic waste of thread. We'd get one interesting thread where the most viewed/crazy game is happening, and a bunch of dead threads. There wouldn't be enough people watching a particular game when 9 others are on at the same time. Single Game GDTs only work when lots of posters are on the same game. GDTs were and still are mostly just places to reaction post. Most people don't want to discuss and analyze during a game, they want to take in the game and lol when something happens. No one really reads because the game is on. The split threads have indeed slowed things down enough to participate in some chat if you are the lonely goon looking for that sort of thing, but still have enough games going on that it moves at a fast enough clip during the boring parts of your game to keep things fun. Just keep it how it is now. Split early, all one thread late, single GDTs for primetime.

Chichevache posted:"most" Read the threads. Most people are still just posting reactions a lot of the time. Split threads just make it a little easier to keep track of who is reacting to what. GDTs in all forms are essentially places to reaction post to what is happening. I'm never focused on a thread and what people are saying during a game, I'm watching the game and occasionally glancing to see if someone said a funny thing or to watch others reactions. Most complaints about the single thread in here is "moves too fast, can't follow who is reacting to what" but now with people able to tell who is reacting to what, its still mostly reaction posts. Who actually reads GDTs? For me GDTs were always places to post our lols and see reactions when something stupid happens. But maybe that's because I tend to watch football with other people who I can talk to instead of posting and hoping someone decides to chat back.

ROSS MY SALAD posted:so why text instead of call We call at halftime. Typically our feeds are very off in terms of time and that can be frustrating, as she'll react to a play about 10 seconds before I see it, then I demand to know what happened, and it's less fun for both of us

That happened a lot to me when I tried to skype games with my long distance girlfriend. Thankfully she was much more reserved than I when her feed was ahead but I would find myself watching her face trying to read micro expressions to see what was going to happen in the coming play.

But maybe that's because I tend to watch football with other people who I can talk to instead of posting and hoping someone decides to chat back. I'm guessing like 170 people do. The point of putting up a pole was to alleviate people posting their preference and saying "this is how everyone feels". Most of the posts in this thread are pretty pointless too, it's the same circular argument from before with everyone posting their personal preference like it means anything. The fact is that TFF is split on which route is best.

Ok it's taken me several drives to sort through the stats, but here is what the falcons should do on defense to stop this scrub rb that's gashing them: tackle him Oh would you look at that while I made this highly researched and thought out post, the falcons gave up a 40 yard touchdown run. Sorry my analysis didn't come out in time to change the course of the game fellas next time I'll be faster

Oh poo poo, us "idiots" and our "retard teams" have been "owned" by, uh, whoever this guy is. While the server can handle it, I don't really feel like scrolling through ten individual threads with five pages apiece just to find the N/V thread again.
