Kill This Thread X is history. It reached 2000 posts without a winner.

Here is the new thread.

The following rules were established by Kent at the start of the first 24-hour version, adapted from the original rules by EDE:

The rules:

1. The Basic Idea: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!

2. Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and responses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.

3. In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.

4. So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.


Let's try to do this one in, shall we?

And we've already got our first wannabe thread killer. She may be cute, but don't let that fool you -- she's deadly.

Having killed 40 percent of the threads completed thus far and two-thirds of the 24-hour threads, I still like my odds. grin

I like odd numbers better than even numbers. My favorite number is 7.

If the twenty-four hour threads start proving too difficult to kill, will we have to switch to twelve-hour threads?

Even 12 hour threads probably won't be that easy to kill. Consider that our most active posters live in different time zones - mine is almost the reverse of everyone else's!

I still remember not posting to kill-thread 8/9, thinking I could leave it to later. Only later did I read the rules. Lots of threads have odd titles. What did I know?

Anyway, officially this thread was killed by me. As only I have the ...

Timothy Dalton is one of those very underrated actors.

The Dalton brothers were the bad guys in The Good, The Bad, and Huckleberry Hound.

Such a fun movie.

The real life Dalton Brothers were killed while attempting to rob two banks simultaneously in broad daylight in Coffeyville, Kansas, in 1892.

Their failure is in part due to a ruse on the part of one of the bank tellers, who convinced them that they had to wait until the time lock on the vault could be opened.
