  1. Greetings, my friend. We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future. You are interested in the unknown... the mysterious. The unexplainable. That is why you are here. And now, for the first time, we are bringing to you, the full story of what happened on that fateful day. We are bringing you all the evidence, based only on the secret testimony, of the miserable souls, who survived this terrifying ordeal. The incidents, the places. My friend, we cannot keep this a secret any longer. Let us punish the guilty. Let us reward the innocent. My friend, can your heart stand the shocking facts of grave robbers from outer space?

  2. (Please note I posted this elsewhere, but I'm not trying to spam. It's just that this is in the off-topic board as well but it also pertains specifically CBB)

     

    Hey guys! I want to start a new community building enterprise based on one from my time at the rifftrax boards (and I'm sure other forums I don't go to). The basic idea is that every month we vote on the stuff we are interested in (for example, one month is top 50 Comedy Movies, another is Top 50 Songs from the 80's, Another is Top 50 Super-Heroes, etc.)

     

    For us, the topic will be top 50 Comedy Bang Bang guests!

     

    Basically, it's a fun activity where we get to talk about the things we like and debate which are better.

     

    Step 1 is to make a list of your top 25 guests from all of Comedy Bang Bang (the podcast and the TV show). Please rank them in order of preference with #1 will be your favourite. Each number is worth points inverse to it's ranking. For example, your #1 is worth 25 points, your #2 is worth 24, #3 worth 23... and #25 is one point!

     

    Step 2. Please keep the list a secret, Rather than posting it here, send it to me, the host, as a private message! I will keep track of them and add up all the numbers to see who gets the most points! For example, if Jon Hamm appears on 3 lists, with one person giving him 21 points, another giving him 4 points and another giving him 15, then that's 40 points. The higher the score, the higher you appear in the rankings.

     

    Step 3: when I have all the lists in, then they are all added together and then I post the top 50, usually somewhere between 5 and 10 a day.

     

    Does this sound interesting? I think it does. So if you are interested, please make a list and private message me with it. And try to keep your votes a secret, just so the results will be a surprise! The deadline is May 5th, 2013 for now, and we should try to get in at least 10 lists. And please post or hit the poll to show you are interested and that this ain't a waste of time. If this is successful, then I'll make another list later on.


  3. I'd like to see more shirts that reference stuff in the show, beyond just the logo. I love those Kulap socks though. Any chance we'll see shirts for the TV show?

     

    I'd also love to see a shirt that has a list of Bob Ducca's allergies.


  4. Too keep it simple, all people would need to do is submit a list of their top 25 ranked movies that want to see discussed on HDTGM.

     

    Here's the more in depth version:

     

    Basically the idea is that we get as many forum members to Personal message me a list of their top 25 picks. The higher the ranking, the more points. So your #1 pick is a full 25 points, your #2 worth 24, etc.... And your #25 pick is 1 point.

     

    If you decide you only want to submit a lower number of entries, you can, though your picks won't score quite as high. Let's say you only submit 10 movies. Your #1 pick will be worth 10 points, your #2 worth 9, etc...

     

    All of the votes are tabulated and then ranked. In the case of a tie, then that tie is broken by how many lists it appeared in and if it is still tied, then it goes to the one that had the highest rank from an individual. If it's still tied... then it is just a tie.

     

    It is also optimal to have more than 10 participants. Trust me, I know from experience. They are still fun without, though. Really, it's all about community building and fun discussions. Anyone interested?

     

    Here are some I hosted for the rifftrax forum to give you an idea:

    Top 50 comic strips

    Top 50 fictional species and races

    http://forum.rifftrax.com/index.php?topic=25374.msg732059#msg732059


  5. Well, I was actually thinking of starting similar. See, on this other forum I was on (the rifftrax forum), we had a monthly thing in which we vote for top 50 of something with forum members making a list of their top 25 (for example, this month, it is game shows, last month it was Twilight Zone episodes). Basically everyone sends their list to the host with their #1 pick being worth 25 points, there #2 being worth 24 and so on.

     

    Anyone up for that? I've been planning to do something similar in the off topic board for a while and this might be a good way to gauge interest (and we could always do both).
