Seriously?

For one thing, like I stated in the first topic of this thread, big stories should still have their own threads. I think one of the biggest PC game publishers on the planet deciding to rebuild their library from the ground up to run on Macs is pretty big news.

But, since I did make the comment about people not liking the megathread concept... I'll humour you:


Against General Apple Thread

I lost track of the Round 1 playoff threads even and ended up getting the news from TSN rather than the more accurate and timely source of CP

So your fata actually goes on fanin80's record, now at 29.

Looks like, out of the 4 people who commented on it, the score is 3-1 against the megathread. I didn't count you in those numbers, since you haven't commented one way or the other... also, since you're either first or second in total posts in every single Apple thread on the front page, I'm going to guess that you really don't care where the threads are posted... if it's about Apple, you're showing up.

Edit: Actually, I made a mistake. It turns out you did comment about this thread...
