Maybe it's best to leave the trash over at the Buzztime forum. You back memories of the beginning of the end at the Buzztime forum from summer 2008. What a mess that was.

Funny yes, but stuff like this will start a chain reaction. First it's New Coke, then it's the ROYL thread, then it's you know who picking on newbies, then it's the guy from the west coast injecting politics in every thread and before you know it you have the Buzztime forum all over again. Yes, I am exaggerating, but it could happen. I say let the trash die with the Buzztime forum. Nothing against Bigsky, but classic coke made me think of the summer of 2008 when the first big changes came down the road. The Buzztime forum was never the same after that.

I'm gonna have to side with Cards on this one, it was funny but at least for the time being I think it's at least too quick to start Buzztime bashing.
Plus, as said many times over there, I disagree with the New Coke analogy.

I wasn't think of it as Buzztime Bashing.

This Thread is Don't Want to Hear It... I took it as BigSky saying he was tired of the BT members using the New Coke analogy, not BT.

Heh heh,

If you go to the BT website, click on the GAMES tab and then on the "Buzztime Trivia" tab, you'll get this quote in the accompanying text:


"Buzztime Trivia™ is Buzztime's most popular trivia game!"

ACK! Gah!! Bleech!!! :x

Correct. I don't think I've ever bashed Buzztime.

Tim, if a meant to be humorous reference to a couple of over-used phrases bothers you, then go ahead and delete this thread.

If you're laughing at the overuse of that phrase then I'm all for that. :lol:

I heard a reference to New Coke in a TV show the other day and got a chuckle out of it.

Too bad I don't actually remember New Coke -- it would have been fun to complain to Coca Cola. :D

As tired as it is to hear about it on the forums... I still get a chuckle when Buzztime plays the New Coke question... :D

And whats wrong about the ROYL thread? As far as I'm concerned it was light hearted ,good clean fun,which is what in my humble opinion buzztime is about. :lol:

"I could care less."

I'm pretty sure the utterers of this phrase mean "I couldn't care less.", but, alas, the "could care" version seems to be more ubiquitious.
