Whitefont everything for two weeks after wide release...

That's a lot of whitefont. Somebody get a bigger bucket.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Speaking as someone who has little interest in the Movies thread apart from the Foamies and the Oscars, can we have a post sent to Press as soon as the Movie thread does discuss the thing that I *thought* it was created for, namely the Foamies?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, then I'd just say "Buffistas talk about movies," or whatever. We can add the Foamies when the time comes.

My feeling, and people may not agree with me (which would be fine), is that everything is so clever here (us, thread titles, etc.), so having a very straightforward slug on the front page is a Good Thing.

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

can we have a post sent to Press as soon as the Movie thread does discuss the thing that I *thought* it was created for, namely the Foamies?

Absolutely.

Okay. I just lopped off the first part. Complain if it's not your cuppa.

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

It looks like we're back ...

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Should we leave WX open for a while longer, just in case?

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

If the database doesn't eat itself in an hour, I say we close up.

Re-opening's no biggie.

edit: What about closing everything other than main? Just to discourage scatter ...

Yippee. We're back. Back to checking my own spelling.

Good idea.

Ugh. I'll take spoilers and smallville and shoo people back here.
