Yea, that prompted my post. It looks amazing.

Why reopen the wounds of the old "linear steak, quadratic bacon" war??

High end steaks are fantastic and there really isn't a true disparity between the two. If you're having an issue, it's you and not the system. It's on you to fix it yourself. Perhaps you can multimeat.

Three pages already on one point, and there's a thousand more points to cover.

So, I understand that the 2-5 of you have a very worn axe to grind, and I know you won't actually define or clearly state your assumptions and terms, or goals.

But I am positive that if you did, and by some act of God you found a consensus, you could have written a game between yourselves.

Sounds very much like the recent mediated negotiations between my fellow tenants and myself, and our landlord. Scheduled for 3 hours. Ran for 5 hours. No matter how many times I tried to get people to talk about our common reasons for the landlord not to be able to boost the rent over the cap. Everyone wanted to whine about their individual bellyaches. Mediator was almost banging his head into the table.

Wow, you mean all that screaming of doom and gloom was for nothing and was just the same couple of people shouting the same doom and gloom they've been shouting for years? Imagine my shock and surprise.

The only way to combat the sheer number of threads that are popping up about the same topic ...


Is to create a greater number of META-THREADS obliquely discussing the number of threads talking about the same topic!

My license plate frame says, "This guy loves bacon." I also have 4-5 t-shirts that are bacon themed. It's interesting that of all my cool(all of them are cool because it's me) t-shirts, I get "That's a cool t-shirt" comments several times more often than the rest when I'm wearing a bacon themed shirt.

When I got back into tournament M:tG at the local store for a while, my friends I got in with used bacon-themed card sleeves and we were Team Bacon.

It had a salutory unifying and camaraderiec effect.

But how many metaphors for the situation can we really draw on?
