I have a question with an extra added proposal.

With my schedule, I find myself living in slow time land. These slow times get finished more often than not. If they're OOM's, no problem - they get posted and all is well.

However, if they are bar threads, the slow timed threads get buried under the next day or two's worth of threads. I know for a fact that I miss finishing a lot of cool threads of other people's as well because I forget about them.

Would we be interested in having a "Finished Bar Slow Time Threads" post (with tag) every day or so in the Back Room? I know I'd like a chance to see what I'm missing. I'd be happy to make a post every day a la the Pimp posts.

Yea or nay?

I think I like this plan.

That gets a Yea from the peanut gallery.

Also gets a "omg I have a slowtime!"

This is Feather saying 'YES, PLZ' for I am in the same boat with the super slowtime land.

Very much yea.

Definitely. I'd say 80% of my posts and threads at least end up in slowtime.

So agreed.

Yes, absolutely. I've been pondering something similar myself - just 'cos I also live in slowtime land, and so do most people I regularly thread with, it seems. :)

This'd also give slowtimed threads the chance to be pimped; I know a stack of fantastic stuff doesn't get a chance, because it's always eight pages back by the time it's finished. :)

Hee, very wise. I can't even get to LJ anymore due to filtering. *scowls*

Yes! As I am to be stuck in slow-time-land (great company, shame about the room service) with various lovely people.
