Nothing too fancy, just one or two people going through the most recent thread, maybe even the last two, and grabbing links to good discussion on topics we've handled in the past, then listing them in the tech thread to double check that they're still relevant or useful, then listing them in the slug, probably alphabetically. I don't anticipate it being more than about an hour's rifling, and the topics would be less than five things, which could be handled pretty easily in the thread slug as one single comma-abbreviated line.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I hope this is the correct thread to discuss this, if it isn't, could someone kind direct me to the appropriate spot?
I noticed quite a few brand-new, spanking posters in the Spoilers thread all of the sudden (a series of posts that are VERY spoilery were linked in Twop). Not a huge deal, but I am wondering if a welcoming committee needs to be sent out or a reminder of the FAQ or something.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Has everyone been playing nicely so far, LeN? If so, I think we should be okay. It's perfectly possible they'll never stray outside that thread. But it would be interesting to welcome them in general and ask where they came from--I think we were linked to from Warren Ellis's site too.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Yes, they have been playing very nicely so far, I probably would have had a more alarmist post otherwise! :-)
There is just a lot more *discussion* in the thread that I am used to. Odd! :-)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Are people who come for spoilers likely to be posters who'll stay? No judgment intended, I'm just curious.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I was worried for a minute there that they would elect Jessica to godhead. (As if we hadn't done that already.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Nutty, hilarious. Really though, would you be surprised if there was a Temple of Jessica in there by Monday?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

As I have stated on multiple past occasions, I would totally promise to use my powers for good! Why doesn't anyone ever believe me?
