It's best not to go back and edit your posts... you just lose that turn!!

"Secret Meeting" - The National

So good to see you guys; you can see that this thread is not overpopulated. I sure wish you'd both play a few turns whenever the spirit moves you.

 

[daventura]

Hey spacekitty, do you ever play songs, or do you just come in here and hassle people?

Fair question.

So, my edited post doesn't count either?

It was pointed out that my first post was a repost, so to keep the game flowing, I changed it.

I admit that I didn't search because of the obscurity of the song, I was wrong.
Won't happen again.

You did not play off of the correct song...

And the reason the thread isn't over-populated is because you have chased them all away!!!

Fair question.

I will keep "hassling" people when they don't play the game correctly... and not searching because you thought a song was too obscure is a perfect reason!!

"Bangor Mash" - The Devil Makes Three

A pretty fun little band...check them out.

Sweet Virginia -- Meet Virginia -- Secret Meeting -- chainorama. We all miss your songs, SK, honestly. I just saw on another vendor's music thread I peeked in on that you like Mott The Hoople. Neato. Play...c'mon, play...

I was going to jump in here and try to join in the game, but now I'm confused. Perhaps another time.

 

[spacekitty]

I'll see this thread shut down first!!!

Wise decision... LMAO!!!

Aha, so this is where SK hides out.

What was this even in response to? "First"...before what, exactly? What would be the grounds for attempt to close a thread with such fine longevity, that was not started by you, and in which you haven't been playing? subversive, and potential intimidated onlookers: unlike the other music game, you cannot play off artists' names here, only the songs' names. Unlike the other thread, according to SK, the BARE minimum to match a song is 2 consecutive letters, whereas it's 3 in the other game (the more of a match, the better). And you really have to always use the search thread tool (top/right) to make sure that your song is note a duplicate or a cover of a song that's already been played since 8/10, when the game started, as they do not count. ECF threads should not only be for only the elite few to enjoy. That's just baloney, pure and simple.

I knew the rules were stricter, but I didn't realize there was so much drama. I hate that word, but couldn't think of a better one.

 

[spacekitty]

That's in the past tense...

 

[JerryRM]

That's in the past tense...

Oh, be nice, SK. It's only a game, my dear.

You are supposed to BOLD the word or part of a word so there is no confusion... and you are the main person who has taken this game down the toilet!! Most of the other trouble makers left, and good riddance, but you still seem to linger on...

This was a nice, happy place, where the new people, including myself, followed the Rules as they were told to us by the older players... and peace and harmony reigned throughout the land.

Maybe you should go back and read progg's post again... just don't take my word for it!!

Here... let me refresh your memory...

Her 'ticked off' was preceded by a rude incursion into, and, a deliberate disruption of a long-standing thread.

These parts had occasional humor but the main focus was meeting the challenge of the game and of possibly discovering some 'new to you' music to love. Humor is available in abundant supply elsewhere at ECF.

Awfully kind of you after you were the main cause of the turmoil here. You're a capable communicator and could've used your abilities to ease new game participants into the thread after establishing a well-mannered relationship with the long-term players.

Chat was kept to a minimum for precisely the reason previously stated -- it makes searching even more difficult than it is. There's ample chat availability on ECF, including on existing music threads. Here it's been -- the music speaks for itself. sk can speak for herself, but, deflecting the blame to her after both lauding her and generously 'trying to get her to rejoin the game' is really too much.

People were having fun here. A former player remarked that things were a bit stale here and new players would be welcome... New or rediscovered music -- Nice! That's what could've been.

Growing and thriving presupposes members willing to actively think what their footprint will be on a thread they enter. They must ask themselves -- Is it a thread that has value to me? What is the value?

If the value can't be identified or if the thread does not have value to the new thread participant their choices include disruptively imposing their ideas, hanging around a bit to figure out the written and unwritten thread rules or finding/starting another thread. There's plenty of room at ECF.
