Poll question: When should we move the nightly blog to the clubhouse?
Edited on Wed Apr-20-05 04:41 PM by gkhouston
Discussion about moving the nightly thread seems to have tapered off, and is largely in favor of moving to the clubhouse. When do we want to do it?

Please respond by Sunday, April 24th, 5pm Eastern. (If you haven't drug your lazy ass out of bed by then, you don't get to vote!)

1. I'm not voting yet...
I'm just posting a link back to the original poll, since it contained discussion about the move which might be of interest:

2. I did ! Time's a'wastin'
I just realized too, that sometimes I only get to read the KOEB the next day, and don't dare respond for fear of kicking it up to the top in ERD again. Why push it :loveya:

I also know how to work the Live Blog fans on the public forums. And there's many! Just post...who's watching (name of show)..voila!

Example, I was watching the Discovery Health Channel last weekend while they were removing a 150 tumor from a 98 pound lady from Romania. Of course, I thought of the DU Lounge...hey, there were many!

I just love DU....! And my KOEBers, not necessarily in that order :)

3. I'm still an advocate for staying out in public, so I'll just trail along-
. . . at the last possible moment, looking back wistfully over my shoulder toward ER.
(Just hope I don't get turned into a pillar of some kind:hide:)

4. well, I'll vote for Friday, just to make the colors pretty :-)
No, seriously, I still think it's less annoying to have us there another few days than to have an empty thread saying "Yoo hoo! We've moved!" Friday could be our first day in the new place, with a "Thank you and we've moved" pointer thread in ERD. After that, nada.

5. I think having at least one "We've moved" notice, if not several, is good
Give people time to catch up. Post the same message each night, add a nice little visual, point people in the right direction. It could even be fun. I'd even volunteer to write it.

7. It could contain funny Keithisms...
(To tied two threads together)

Such as:

"Hey... we're innnnnnnnnn the Big House!" LINK

"For those of you scoring at home, or alone... we've moved here:" LINK"

"Shhhhhh" we've moved: LINK

And so forth. :)

8. I was also thinking of one based on the beatnik photo
"Hey, all you cool Keith-kats and Keith-kittens, get hep to the jive, man! We've moved our groovy KOEB nightly meeting here" LINK
"...so don't miss it, or you'll be a real square!"

And, for times when brevity is sufficient:

"KOEB has moved here" LINK
"Be there. Aloha."
