hrothgar Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I vote for the foo-thread. It has everything. Dburn poetry, foo stupidity, multiple jlall attempts to explain bridge, foo mathematics, foo stupidity, and even a little humor. which of the foo threads are we talking about?They all blur together...

I'm sure it was the one regarding some overcall of a high level preempt. The world thought it was right, foo thought it was wrong, and in practice it went for a number so he had lots of ammo. I tried but couldn't find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

655321 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 This one might be what Josh is talking about (but there is no dburn poetry here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjbrr Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 This thread might make the list. It has an all-star cast, everyone doing what they do best. And it's still in its infancy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Wow I'm really disappointed in myself, I remembered the thread being much better than that. I respectfully withdraw my suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 there was also http://forums.bridgebase.com/index.php?showtopic=22320 but it's much less interesting than the Sambolino thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 just got reminded by the dburn poetry thing about this funny thread http://forums.bridgebase.com/index.php?showtopic=22194 but it's too short to be considered I'm afraid... edit: I thought there was more fighting in this "forward going" thread!! it's a big happy peace party compared to what I remembered :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awm Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I recommend the movie thread. This thread has been active for longer than pretty much any other thread (i.e. with people regularly posting rather than lying dormant for years and then maybe being revived). Virtually all the posts are on topic, and it's been pretty useful. Of course, if we want a bridge-related thread it's not the best choice, but I don't recall that being specified. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Except Water Cooler and Laws forum, I am not a big contributor to either so I would probably misjudge it.Yes the movie thread would be nice but it's apples and oranges. Of course comparing threads in the bridge-related discussion is also pretty apples and oranges :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

655321 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 What about the over 20 hours of college math thread (and a related thread.) I agree with Josh's memory, not the real Josh, I think the 5♦ overcall thread is hilarious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
