Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

But why would you want to be? Few if any on this site like you, so the only reason you are here is to bad mouth other people!! Isn't there a 12 step program for that , that you can go to instead?
Unlike many in here, this is only one thread among dozens that I follow, so don't think you're that important. I post rarely compared to most in here.

I follow the thread because there are some good posts, probably the same reason you do. I just try to ignore the self-entitled twits (and I promise I'll work harder on that).

That's funny, the thread got shut down right after you called me a clubie because I called you out on the fact that you yourself go OT all the time. But apparently thats OK for you.
No, it's not, and I shouldn't have pulled the cluebie crap. But the several people with severe entitlement issues ("it's my thread and I can do what I want, rules don't matter" BS) got to me.

BTW, I almost NEVER went OT in that thread. The one you called me on, which was semi-OT, was actually also semi-ON-topic - we were discussing the Scoville scale at the time. The ones that killed it did so by literally going OT for PAGES at a time, even after the mods had closed it several times, noting it was closed for OT posts.

Does anyone know what the Marlboro Snus challenge is about that starts 1/26?
Someone said that Marlboro told them that it's a survey & some coupons.
Doesn't sound like much of a challenge to me!

And people DON"T forget, This guy hit the mod button on us in the other thread just before it got closed. And why do you cowardly have your settings on invisible. No guts?
So "right before" is days?

As I have noted before, I mod alerted once, and only once, and it was the first time the thread was closed. The thread was closed several times afterwards, none from my urging. Even others within this thread have noted others alerted the thread.

The thread was not closed from my actions. It was closed by OT posters. Can't handle the truth? Tough, there it is. People trying to change it by blaming me isn't going to change the fact that repeated OT postings closed it.

And until you get that straight, and learn from it, get used to most of your threads outside The Lounge being shut down by the mods for OT posting (not that I know of, or care, if you have started any other threads outside of The Lounge).

Welcome, We all have our personal reasons for being here, It started with OWTW for most and evolved into this fun and somewhat addictive place. Once in a while a creep stops by for some blah blah blah type of annoying attention but were trying to weed them out. Enjoy

Here- that's the Contests and Sweeps Forum, sorted with the newest threads up top.

Here- the same Forum, with newest IWs up top

I'm sure there are some posted in here that won't show there, but the vast majority will.

So what? Coincidence. After mod alerting the first time, and seeing that it did no good, I didn't mod alert any more, I just tried to point OT posts here to this thread, where they belonged. But obviously others did.
