    @Darkwebs is retiring

    I have faith that Chris would carry the mantle well. Anyone else want to step up?

    Thank you Darkwebs! The game threads you have created over the years have been top notch.

    I needed two choices for the poll....CC and no one can replace DW.....CC is the obvious choice....HCP needs to practice on G league threads for a few years first...he's still using jumbo crayons and has a hard time staying inside the lines.

    going to give an honorable mention to swish3.....I think swish3 would be a great font changer for the threads! Sly would make it way too much like dogs on black velvet playing poker

    Thank you Darkwebs for your game threads. Really was amazing! For the next game thread creator maybe it should be more of a contest and then a vote?

    I'd say the job should go to somebody who wants it. Or, if CC and HCP are the two choices, they could alternate. Then we can entertain ourselves trashing the weaker game-threader

    also, keep in mind that if the HCP is coming here and trying to manipulate graphics, it will open up plenty of potential geography for Mrs. HCP jokes.

    @UKRAINEFAN also suggested a contest.

    What do you have in mind?

    I say we let the market decide. Let it be free-for-all where we all create our own game day thread clogging up the main page of the board and then whoever gets the most interaction is declared victor! We better let the process run it's course all season as well to make sure a true champ comes out of the mess.

    great idea.
    Have each person make their best game thread.
    Then vote/poll which is the best. The winner is it.

    Problem is that since CC is a mod, he can just lock/merge/delete any thread that might challenge his.

    Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

    Whoever it is better be good at graphic design, not trying to read
