Okay folks--there is a new rule that each folder can only have 3 active game threads, and right now there are five.
How about we retire the Song titles game, as after 200 pages or so, it has run its course.
The obvious next choice would be the Alphabetical Song Titles game, but I am not sure the Alphabetical Projects game can last as long, so it may be better to close it.
Which do you choose?
Please note: this is a community-wide policy, and isn't really negotiable, so please do not shoot the messenger. Just pick the three games to remain open.
And please do not start new game threads without permission, as one will have to close for each one open.
Thanks.

Well, the H&G folder is being overhauled as we speak, and they will be limited to six active games at a time, so that wouldn't be an option. Sorry.
Games are slowing the site down, especially when they get hundreds of pages long (as is the case with many in the H&G folder.)

And, since the Hangman game is very long, it might be a good idea to start a new one if that is the most popular game.
How about a new Hangman thread, a new Alphabetical Song Titles thread, and one more?

That sounds good to me.
Any other input?

I could go with qtman's suggestion---but I hate to see my post count cut in half.
Ps103, is there any possibility the overload is because of the Roger Bennett story, which is no longer an issue?

Daniel, Moderators do not have the ability to purge threads.

True, but even he doesn't have time to do that, they have the system set up to purge after a year of inactivity. :)

Since we really need to keep the page count down on game threads, it would probably be better to start fresh, I think.
You want to start the new threads, Daniel?

Sure! Thanks, and will do shortly.
I'll give them the same titles as the old ones, or at any rate easy-to-understand titles (rather than "new song titles game" which would invite perpetual questions about name origin.)

Thanks!
