Retro Fantasy Games?

10 Separate threads in the football forum

Am I alone in really not giving a toss about these threads?

I think it makes another case for having a separate games forum for this shite

Somebody will agree with me. Just you wait.

Also all these Retro thread are pushing down perfectly eligible football threads onto the 2nd page.

Im not saying get rid of them, but the likes of these and Werewolves should be in a separate games forum.

I think those games wouldnt work in a seperate forum to be honest. They are reliant on 'outsiders' for their votes, as it simply would die without the input from people who havent been involved with the drafting etc. It does seem like the threads are taking up some space though, but I reckon it's because they want to speed up the process rather then waiting ages for one poll to finish.

They don't bother me in the slightest and I don't really see that they've much in common with the Werewolf threads - they're interesting actually and add another dimension to the football forums.

They're conducted in a friendly way, have kicked off some good discussions and most importantly lots of posters have put a lot of well intentioned effort and thought into it - I don't know why you need to get involved.

I think Polaroid has gone a bit overboard with the groups and 4 threads at one time - still hes doing a good job of sorting it all out properly and adding commentary etc

There is actually a Fantasy Footy forum already but the point is that people need to vote and that wont happen if it was put there.

Totally with you. I logged on and thought 'what the f***'. First there was that werewolf shit and now this crap. I come on redcafe to read and discuss football related topics. Not play games. If people want to play games then piss off to a forum that's just for that and you will be happy. Let's get the caf back to the way it used to be.

What do they "clog up"? Ignore them.

Let them be, man. If they effect you then you have too much time on your hands.

Couldn't agree more. Its added some much-needed variety to the football forum.

I generally use the "New Posts" function anyways. I hardly ever click into the actual forums anymore, unless I've being away from the caf for a day or 2. Upon looking at it, I suppose there are too many of the threads/polls at the one time. But infairness to Polaroid it is the quickest way to finish the game.

We should do a themed one and stick it in the football forum, then see how long it takes for Randall to implode.

And now there's a 20 questions thread in the general.

I'm sick of this shit. Cunts having fun and stuff. It simply has to stop.

I apologise in advance. I do like a moan

But come on, there is at least 4 or 5 of these threads in the top half of the Utd forum and the football forum.

Does everyone except me read these and take part?

I'm involved in them and even I think they're cluttering up the forums a bit. There's been too many recently.
