Your Topic.

I would like each member of the board to choose a topic. Anything they want, but make it somewhat specific.

For example.. Your topic should not be "Madden" Or "NFL Football"

It should be more like "Madden Online" or "Madden Franchise mode" Or "Madden Playbooks"

Or "The New England Patriots"


Your topics do not have to be Madden or NFL related they could be basketball.. or pretty much anything you want (gaming or sports would be preferable though.. but not required)

Once you claim a topic you will be responsible for starting new threads about that topic. I want you to commit to starting a new thread every x days minimum. You can set the amount of days, but I would like you to write it here.

Do not commit to more than you can handle. If you can make 1 thread a week.. thats fine.

1 thread per day.. much better

It's up to you.. but I would appreciate participation in this from every member of the board.

If you take a topic.. and someone wants that topic and they show they can be more active and show more quality in that topic you are/do then your topic will be stripped and given to the other member.

Quality is important in this too.. your new thread should be of quality.. your thoughts and youropinions about something that has happened.. it should take you a few minutes to make your thread.. not just a quick little post with a link.

Thoughts?

Hm, I guess I'll go ahead and take "Green Bay Packers"?

That should probably be "The Green Bay Packers" or something, but whichever.

It'll probably depend on the time of year, etc but I should be able to get a couple threads up a week.

That sounds like a good idea to me. Really good way to help boost activity and give new members more topics and threads to contribute to.

I wouldn't mind taking up the "Video Game" topic, as I'm sure most of you I pay quite a bit of attention to video games. I actually have been tempted to post more threads on it but I wasn't sure if anyone would really be interested in some of the gaming news that goes on.

It's not based on the stuff you said this thread. I just figured I'd post people to it.

So basically you want us to take one or more topics and try to regulary create threads about them?

Just want to make sure I understand what you're saying.

First off, I like the idea.
But then, right now I dunno what would be my 'topic' here.
Buffalo Bills for example??... Well, there are dozens of other members here who are nearer to the stuff happening in Buffalo (maybe every football fan in the US).
Or european soccer... But then, who cares here for european soccer??!!...

I really have to think what I can name my topic. If I do this, I want to make it good....

I have nothing but good memories of playing for the Bills. It's something I cherish. When I was playing for the Pats, I'd wear a Bills T-shirt under my uniform. Someone came up to me one day and said, 'Fred, no matter what you wear on the outside, you,ll always be a Buffalo Bill on the inside.'

Wrestling, as I suggested to Cash a while back, I'd like to see a wrestling section. But that's just my personal feelings
