1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 What the hell happened in here? GD has gone AZ! Look at all these "Blah-Blah A to Z" threads -- they've pretty much taken over this forum, and I'm not sure that's a good thing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Agreed but they are just not my thing. Folks who enjoy them can enjoy I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I just noticed they were all in Grand Designs. Guess I never noticed before because I only ever go in there for the cats thread... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronos Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I think it's short for Grand Designs. Or Gangsta Disciples. I can't be too sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Personally, I like the two GD question threads the best: Truth/Lie & Yes/No. But I think those two sometimes stump some when it comes to making a new q. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I think there are two A-Z threads that can definitely die now: "Letters" and "Words". Both are kind of pointless given the variety of A-Z threads out there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) My proposal for a fix to make GD cleaner while still keeping the variety of A-Z threads: Compile them into three or four general categories. Ex: actors A-Z, TV Characters A-Z, songs A-Z, albums A-Z, etc ^ these could all be put into a new thread called "Art/Media A-Z" How it would work from there is the poster would post the lettered word, and then claim the category for the next poster to adhere by... To demonstrate: Fly By Night Actor George Clooney Song and so on Edited September 7, 2015 by Mr. Not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To demonstrate: Fly By Night Actor George Clooney Song and so onI can see something like that working...but even more organized. That is...(1) A-Z thread for Film (subcategories: Movies, Movie characters, TV characters, Actors). Thread starts with "A" and the 1st TRFer says "Alan Alda"; he then gives the next subcategory (for example) "Movies" which will start with B.Next TRFer says Bad Boys then gives the next subcategory with C to follow of course.  (2) A-Z for Music (subcategories: Bands, Song titles, Album titles, etc.) This would work the same as the previous example.  Just these two threads with their subcategories would chop away probably 6 or more threads.

JohnnyBlaze Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Oh, Things You Like and Things You Don't Like could also be cut into one A-Z thread. Same as Cities of the World and Citizens of the World. And the same system explained in the previous post could be used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Here's a question, am I secretly GOD and i don't know it?

JohnnyBlaze Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 And off-topic a little but a man called AGUT has taken a set off Djokovic at the US Open!That almost certainly won't last.

AGUT is ok but generally speaking he's not even at the Robredo level and certainly not Ferrer.It's not lasting, Djokovic is back in control. His level dropped for a while and AGUT's forehand is on fire. Trouble with AGUT though is he's no GUTS! These commentators are talking nonsense too. Oh and another thing AGUT makes a noise like he's being stabbed every time he hits a shot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WTA is stocked with noisy, annoying players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
