	So there's absolutely no possiblity of re-opening Teh Mole in the C&G forum? -----signature----- Twenty years ago, there was another Edward with a strange disposition and even stranger hair that the ladies swooned over. This Edward had scissors for hands, but he was much, much cooler.

	Not really, QGR. But if it helps, I'll talk to Gangrenous in a while again and maybe he re-thinks his decision. -----signature----- e-hermanita de pirry "I can't keep track of you WNU kids" (Inty) "It is better to expect nothing and let each moment surprise you." Obi-Wan

	Well, it is his decision. But I'll miss it. It was one of my favorite games. And so successful. But I do see the reasons behind closing it, and it was a good decision. -----signature----- Twenty years ago, there was another Edward with a strange disposition and even stranger hair that the ladies swooned over.

	I just saw that the Teh Mole Game's been closed. Personally, I don't think that was a very good idea to tell you the truth. WNU has been slow as it is and if you keep closing threads (Teh Mole, Random Thoughts Thread), I'm guessing there will be even less traffic. The reason as to why the game was closed doesn't make sense to me at all. I'm just going to say it outright: I think it's silly. The Mole game was fun. Why take away something that was fun? WNU is supposed to be fun, isn't it? As said, I personally don't think it was a good idea. Skiara posted: Gangrenous, creator and host of Teh Mole, has already announced that he'll do a new thread after the current game and I'm glad he'll do it. He changed his mind, I'm guessing? -----signature----- I claim Kyp Durron. I'm developing this thing for Captain Kirk.

	The reason behind the termination of Teh Mole is valid, but I think locking it is a bit on the extreme side. Maybe someone should do some sort of write-up on VIPs and mods that easily accessible in the WNU forum? I know there's one in Communications, but, as much as they're supposed to be getting themselves acquained with the JCF, believe me, Communications is one of the last places in the world that a newbie goes. Perhaps, lately at least, more oldbies and midbies have been playing Teh Mole than newbies, but maybe we can try and push the game a bit more, and encourage new posters to try it. I know it seems like an easy game because we've played it before and know how it works, but to a newbie, it can appear extremely confusing. Maybe if we were to link newbies to the game more often and gently encourage them to play, we'd get more new players and decrease the amount of confusion. -----signature----- Twenty years ago, there was another Edward with a strange disposition and even stranger hair that the ladies swooned over.

	If it wasn't time for me to head to bed, I might post something about the closing of the "Teh-Mole" game. How did things progress from opening a new thread to closing it down permanently? Is it really that big of a deal to keep something open that a dozen JCers at a time play, sometimes even more? No matter. Again, I'd post more if I wasn't so tired. But seriously, talking with DG was a good start, but which mods discussed this with you? There have been a smattering of mods over months that have posted once, twice on the board. Do they really have a feel for what goes on here? Why were they consulted instead of the forum regulars... the best insight into how things run on a board? Personally, this is a pet peeve of mine from MS. I've always said that hitting the regulars first, getting the "pulse" of the board, is most important. No one can assume what things are like on another board unless someone's there rather frequently. So, DG was overruled because of what I analyze to be two things... first, you've narrowed WNU's purpose down to little more than a help desk, not an actual forum, and second, his username color is red. And other mods agreed based on whatever they thought, sitting in their own forum and looking in. Even with the protests and confusion in the thread, with DG's reasons, the decision was still made to close it permanently? I now see Ceillean beat me to the punchline. I would say it's silly, too, but I'll go further and say I actually think it's wrong. Not just the wrong decision, but wrong to go about this without weighing the regular user base properly. P.S. And now I've done stayed up later. Kriff. -----signature----- My Uncle Sam sends me places... the "going OCONUS lol" is here! Current Location: Iraq Don't bother running.

	The reason why there weren't many newbies playing the game was the fact that the oldbies and midbies kept signing up so quickly. The game was over -- they signed up. Personally, I don't think the game was complicated. All you had to do was answer basic questions and usually these questions weren't very hard. But I think that's beside the point. I guess I have this antipathy against locking threads that were always on top of the board and that people ventured to quite frequently. -----signature----- I claim Kyp Durron.

	Personally, I don't think the game was complicated. All you had to do was answer basic questions and usually these questions weren't very hard. I know, but when you're a newbie, just about everything is hard. You're so busy trying to fit in as fast as possible that the simpliest game may look extremely intimidating. But, you're right, that's besides the point. I agree with what both of you are saying, but there just needs to be a middle ground. -----signature----- Twenty years ago, there was another Edward with a strange disposition and even stranger hair that the ladies swooned over.

	I suppose what annoys me the most is the fact that the game has been around for sooo long. And no one said anything about the game being in WNU all this time. What's different now? -----signature----- I claim Kyp Durron. I'm developing this thing for Captain Kirk.

	I'm sorry everyone, I have failed you. I tried to keep it here because all the incarnations of Teh-Mole(that I know of) have always been in the WNU since before I even signed up on the boards. I put up as much of a fight as I could while keeping things within the bounds of the TOS. -----signature----- e-dad of s65horsey e-sonofAzureAngle2\|e-twinofEirate_rules e-bro of VaderD,Lissa,JE,Thrawn1786,Chilla,Blueeyes,SWF,TEE,Rilwen,Swan,Rabe,morri,Shaelyn,Allegra&Zap Master of Dar_manda Geriatric Ward suite 305
