What is even happening?

'splain more fully, please Cindy. Leave up an idle window set to the ending thread, which has a posting box, while keeping up in another window, you mean?

Yes. Keep open a window with the thread loaded, where the posting box is still present (so when the posts are up in the 999Xs, it's time, otherwise the posting box disappears), so it has a posting box. Keep up in another window, and after the thread has been closed, sneak back in. Then DX will come in and go all Dawn-eeeeee on you, and post:

Get out! Get out! Get out!

It was really more the "OH MY GOD THERE ARE TWO OF THEM NOW" reaction.

Some of that was me, yelling to y'all with my mind! Sorry amy, but thanks, because *shudder*

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If Joss is writing X-Men, does that make the X-Men Jossverse?

I would say no, since Joss didn't invent the characters. He will be operating under Marvel's restraints as to what he can do. If he wants to kill somoene off, he'll have to get approval from the editors.

Should we change the thread title regardless?

I'm in favor of just changing the thread description.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

How long before we kerfuffle?

There should be fluffing before kerfluffing, just for balance.

And I'm pretty sure we're going to need a title for the thread where we discuss the unaired Wonderfalls eps, but nobody wants to help me!

How 'bout "Surrender To Destiny"?

Does anyone watch Google's PageRanking? I'm pretty sure we shot up 1.5 points in the past month.

When I installed my Google toolbar, both [link] and [link] had a (3/10) ranking. Now [link] has a 5/10, and [link] a 4/10.

Up with the sun

What does the page ranking mean, ita?

And as for the thread title and slug: I liked "Lovesick, my ass" for the thread title. Slug could be something like, "Surrender to destiny and discuss unaired episodes of Wonderfalls here. Please don't request copies."
