-t, weren't you one of the people who did not want Premium expanded?
Yeah. And, as Kat notes, it's the naming of things that is the problem for me. If SA and anyone like-minded had just chatted about The Riches or whatever in Premium for a while, I wouldn't have cared one bit, but repurposing the thread officially troubled me. Eta: after reading ita's post above, I think I was implicitly assuming that such "off-topic" discussions would be in white-font and if they were made on-topic they would be black-font.
I don't even know what I think about that anymore.
And I don't know what we're trying to hash out in here. But I keep reading, hoping I will get it enough to at least sort out my own opinion.
This is how we ended up with the confusion in box set though. It took me over a year to figure out that SG1 was discussed in there because there was no mention of it in the slug or anywhere else. I don't think it's much of a solution to say "Well if they had just done it and not wanted to put it in the slug then it would have been okay."
Oh my goodness, David. I was so here, I might have been 12 of the gang of 14.
Which of your secret identities were you sporting then?

FTR, I'm not saying it would have been okay. I'm saying that I, personally, would not have complained. In retrospect, I think it was a good thing that SA did bring it up officially.
If memory serves, I think she was calling herself "Cindy." She's a tricksy one!

Aha!
Okay, now I'm pretty sure she's Beverly's sock puppet.
Ah, Gang of Fourteen. How the hell did I have so much time then?
Bitch cabal! Whoo! The Midnight Consensers Whut Consense At Midnight! Good times, good times.
Honestly (and trust me, you'll never hear these words from my lips again (okay, at least not until it's appropriate)), if we were going to add individual show threads, Drive and Eureka seem like the naturals because we have the MyNear and CFerg. And because they have sort of different feels from their surrounding threads.

We're in yur board, naming yur threads.
Sorry, remembering with Liese.
I'm leaning towards a small(ish) bucket with blackfont. I've spoiled myself for things, yeah, but it doesn't bother me that much. But I re-read books all the time, too.
Cindy is proposing something else entirely to figure out how to deal with the TV issue since it comes up frequently.
My understanding is that Cindy is proposing something to figure out what shows generate/sustain discussion. Figuring out how to deal with the TV issue may follow. I could, however, be wrong.
I'm totally wondering why we're not discussing having a Drive thread
I've been assuming Minearverse to be the home of Drive because (1) it fits the thread description and (2) that's where Tim will talk about it.
