The worst part about that play was it revealed to me a lovely rule where awesome deception like that isn't allowed. No fun league indeed.

Now I do not know whether I was then a head coach dreaming I was a Saints fan, or whether I am now a Saints fan, dreaming I am a head coach.
Split early plus RDZ seems nice. Combined afternoon.

On week 4 can we not do a split early due to byes?

Maybe one more week before making a final decision, see how the volume compares to the first three weeks and the merged week 4 thread from last year.

MourningView posted:

Part of what made those threads chaotic monsters (which is what some people liked) was that a shitload of people were posting in them at once, which will never happen in the red zone thread because there are two other GDTs going at the same time.

And a lot of the people who liked it the old way don't watch Redzone, they just like having reactions to all the other games in the thread they're posting in. I don't care which way we do it, but people acting like the red zone thread is the exact same thing are misunderstanding what people who liked one big thread actually miss (whether or not the thing they miss was actually good is I suppose up for debate).

At least for me, there were more people posting in the Fox thread than the Redzone thread, so that's what I mainly used.

Look at these people who read the GDT and don't just post post post post post post post into the void. If the forums went down, I'd just write :lol: and bears suck posts on individual 3 x 5 index cards and then throw them into a hat.

If the final vote is literally 50/50 (or close enough) we should stake the outcome on a primetime game. Like if the Raiders cover the spread Sunday night then we go back to megathread, and if they don't we keep split threads (bad example because lol the Raiders, but you get the idea)

Those of us who want to are just going to keep posting in the threads we like and at this point it is pretty clear that enough of us like it that we can continue to do so.

I'll be pretty sad if it goes back the way it was. There is a core group of posters here who know each other, and I'm not one of them. However, in the slower threads, I was able to recognize which posters were talking about the Cowboys game, and further, which ones were fellow Cowboys fans. I recognized their AVs and they saw mine, and there was a nice dialogue going between the five or so of us that were consistently posting.

Back when it was the monster thread, I never had anything like that.

Split TFF into two forums called AFC and NFC. One gets split threads, other gets monster thread. At the end of the season, the forum with the higher amount of users gets merged into the other forum.

Raiders fans abstain, of course.

I get in top GDT posting shape by trying out new and creative ways of cursing at my team and seconds later cheering like a madman. I think it's paying off as it seems like I'm posting more than anyone else in Eagles GDTs.

I feel like I do some of my best worst work in GDTs so being the loser that I am, I want the largest audiences for my posts about the times I get body parts stuck in hot tubs

There's a lot of static for every bit of signal but aim high and try to be the guy who makes the weirdest noises in a sea of grunting manchildren

This is the sense I'm getting. After 3 weeks I can see the appeal of the split threads. The posts are still mostly white noise (WOW...THING HAPPENED!), but the pace is a little more manageable. If we are going to have split threads only split the early games. There is no point to having multiple threads for later games when only 3 games are going on at most and it's easier to follow anyway.

(I still vote megathread)

If we must stick with the splits, only do the early games. The 4 PM mess Sunday was a complete mess, and even Seahawks/Broncos wasn't worth it.
