A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

Vonnie - are those exclusive options?
Nah, I'm just thinkin' out loud. I'm not being the Official Proposal Submitter or some such. Wait a minute. There isn't going to be a vote, is there? Aeeeiii.
I think if it's not not the place for all SF TV, we take the show names out of the title.
The double-neg is throwing me off a bit--you mean, let's just come out and call the thread The Sci-Fi TV thread? Aw. I guess that'd simplify things, although I'm kind of attached to seeing the show names spelled out like they are now--but not, like, psychotically attached or anything. So... calling it Sci-Fi TV thread is OK by me. I'd like to hear other frequent posters on Box Set thread to chime in some more though.
I *think* ita was more suggesting keeping it named Boxed Set, but taking the show names out of the title.
As it is, the thread is called
Boxed Set, vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape
After it turns over, it seems most appropriate to call it
Boxed Set, vol. 2: Insert Clever Title Here
or whatever.
After we decide a whitefont policy, of course.
SF Box Set Vol 2: SV, DS, FS, SG, BSG, and TBA
A sound spoiler font policy is the big thing.
t sits by Vonnie's Spoiler position
I think listing the shows does get unwieldy. I vote we bite the bullet and subtitle it "sci-fi tv" or somesuch
I won't talk about the rules, since I don't participate. But the
Insert Clever Title Here
ought to be Pandora's Box. Just cuz.
t getting ahead of ourselves
"To Serve Man is a Cookbook"
"To Serve Man is a Cookbook"
Bwah! Or just, "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
Okay. Yes, way ahead. But funny. I like.
"To Serve Man is a Cookbook! Also, you don't want to know about the Soylent Green Diet!"
I'm perfectly happy with making it Sci-Fi TV, with the understanding that that would include fantasy.
