They already gave us the answer. This thread means nothing and I doubt they're reading it.

If you ask me, that last year's thread was allowed to get out of control to that extent was also a mistake. | ||

As time went on I think we can all agree that the thread was something special in TL culture so I'm very glad we made the decision to leave it open. Obviously being 1k+ pages long it is not really suited for an LR thread once Blizzcon actually starts. After some more discussion we decided last week that we would be closing the thread roughly 24h before the WCS finals start (so that's some time tomorrow) and opening a new LR thread for the tournament (afaik Lorning has that set up and ready to go). So yeah, it was fun guys may the passion thread burn brightly in our memories for years to come.Well, I still very much disagree with the decision but you guys seem pretty set on it happening so... oh well I guess we can't bitch about it any more. Kill the passionthread or whatever you want to do. | ||

Also I think that everyone's just a bit sour (except me; I'm REALLY sour (but I do understand why what has happened has happened)) about the fact that the old thread - in which we all posted so much is getting closed. But still, guess I should actually make the entire MTG set now. | ||

Fine, your decision but you still didn't told us why current thread isn't suited for LR thread. It "might"  have more pages than normal LR threads but is that so huge deal? | ||

You're just about to beat the final boss. And then the power goes out and you lose your save and have to start over. So you stare at the character creation screen and just can't even come up with a new character name. Instead you just get on youtube and watch the final cut scene. Okay, maybe it's not quite that bad :D | ||

It's like the Twilight saga - it might be vapid horseshit from front to end, but filling 4000 pages and having other people read it is still an accomplishment. | ||

Number of pages doesn't determine the value of a thread or how good of a thread it is. | ||
