hi, it's your friendly IK for the month of may here!

keeping track of good threads can be hard given how many good threads BYOB generates so i thought i'd ask for all of your help, if you find a hidden gem that has somehow been overlooked then please post a link to it in this thread!!

thank you all, you are great!

i may have been too liberal with goldmining when i was ik but my criteria were:

*did people seem to find it funny
*did it gain traction
*is it on page 3 (or page 2 but old idk it was a year ago)



that's gold, baby!

If still maintain a dedicated and highly complicated database for what threads should not get overlooked based on very complicated and secret criteria but I respect the IK's decisions and thus only do so if I feel like a thread might get lost, so this will be a good test to see if this safety net works!!

Lol just start goldmining everything, start on page 1

Goldmine this thread first

It wouldn't even be inaccurate because every thread in byob is amazing

but in the byob goldmine, no one hears you post :ohdear:

Maybe the admins can open the byob goldmine up for posting and then we can move all the threads there. When we want to remember a good thread we can send it back here

Thank you Pot Smoke Pheonnix for this Kickin' Rad sig

Stoner Sloth


this one will have to wait until after the comp as i think nut was going to add to it - now that we have extended the time frame a little hopefully he'll get a chance to! (it will definitely be gold mined though eventually)

lol this one too - i think GaG was unsure if it was going to get more posts but since it looks like it has slowed we'll keep an eye on it cause it is definitely goldmine material!!

e: Thank you both for posting them though, it acts as a good reminder to make sure these good posts aren't lost like tears in the rain!

I mean, makes sense it'd take a while. Can't rush genius

Goons Are Gifts

In general, our IKs have full reign on what to goldmine and despite my burning desire to run through my spreadsheet of excellent threads that need to be goldmined, I don't do it so they can decide on their own.
Once per month between our IK transition though, I goldmine everything on my list that the IK didn't get before, so it doesn't fall off the radar, at least if it's no longer active.

My dream is that in my next life I get reincarnated as a perfectly running script that sorts things
