ILX Hall Of Fame

How many answers?

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Now that's the question.

― Tom (Groke), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:06 (twenty-two years ago)

200?

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:07 (twenty-two years ago)

I think it should be 175.

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:12 (twenty-two years ago)

I second that!

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Does this mean we are going to relabel the unanswered questions: the hall of shame?

― jel -- (jel), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:14 (twenty-two years ago)

150?

I thought initially that this was gonna be some Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame type thing where we could send mark s now he's old n decrepit.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:15 (twenty-two years ago)

But this will be a hall of fame containing the Bangbus, Ally's Ass, and the songs/tube stations. Can there not be a randomly selected panel who sift throuh the threads (ie press the random button ten times) to elect one classic discussion thread too?

― Pete (Pete), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:20 (twenty-two years ago)

I sort of admire the unanswered questions.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:31 (twenty-two years ago)

ILX gets the hall of fame it deserves. Even the Vice thread.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:32 (twenty-two years ago)

what's so good about long threads? It's not how big they are, it's what you do with them that counts.

― DV (dirtyvicar), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, I don't undertsand the logic. Long threads, more often than not, tend to be a cliquey, tedious list of one-word answers to private jokes. Not what I'd want in a hall of fame.

― Mark C (Mark C), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 12:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, I tend not to look at threads that are over some arbitrary but not particularly high number.

― DV (dirtyvicar), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 13:07 (twenty-two years ago)

but people are bound to start adding tons of useless comments to their threads just to get them in the Hall Of Fame...perhaps particularly good threads could be judged and elevated manually? what do you mean you dont have time?

― stevem (blueski), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 13:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Hall of Fame: none of Q's would get in, sob

― the pinefox, Tuesday, 14 January 2003 13:58 (twenty-two years ago)

Or every month we could vote on a selection of threads. Seems a bit too much like work though.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 14 January 2003 15:14 (twenty-two years ago)

And shit!

I think it is time to set up an ILx Hall of Fame. Posters like Ed quite correctly note that ILX is more than it is now, it's the sum of its all-time contributions, and as a result within a week I will start the first thread that will induct members to the ILX Hall of Fame. Stay tuned!

Wotcha, just a quick one to catch up on the sparse Morris news, and more importantly, to extoll the virtues of a new and actually funny British comedy show! Thursdays, BBC2, yes that's right, just before "The YouTube Mike Yarwood Show", and his perfectly passable new comedy is the new Jennifer Saunders sitcom. And it's bloody great. Course, I've only seen the first episode so far, and maybe it will go careering wildly off the rails from here on in, but I just HAD to prostelytize, as a) I haven't been as excited by a new British comedy for beards, and b) it's that damn Serafinowossname who's unfairly commandeering all the attention in Comedy Chat.
