Man this year is awful. We can't even get the E=NG title right. Just make it the pursuit one, this is making democracy look bad.

Well, being stuck in the past resting on past glories is about as Edmonton as it gets...

GOAT!

It must be Oiler fans voting for the easiest title for them to deal with. How many accounts does Mudcrutch have?

How has there not been a single user to make any points in this topic to justify or support this Mud nonsense?

I demand a publicly visible revote. I can accept the outcome if Mud wins again. It's strange that no one is really defending the winner as the better choice of the two.

Yeah, at least switch it back to blood if we HAVE to have that one. When did we voluntarily downgrade that? Now of all times?

I'm too late but as a compromise and in the interest of unity in these divided, highly partisan times, I would've suggested the "all-consuming pursuit" as the new title but that we retroactively add "Mud, Sweatpants and Tiers" as the title of a previous thread that was given a low effort, low meaning title in the days before the monumental significance of E=NG thread titles was truly known and understood.

Why is “The All-Consuming Pursuit of the Next Solution” such a gotcha? All organizations do this all of the time.

Most organizations don't fire the person who said it a week later.
Most organizations have self-awareness about what solutions are needed.
Most organizations eventually have some level of success with this approach.
Most organizations aren't No Good.

I’m not sure “Mud, Sweatpants and Tears” is compliant with the rules. It was never said by an Oiler, Oiler Management or Oiler press. I had suggested “Seismic Failure” or something like that (Truck Rally was yelling about Seismic when they looked like they might beat the Sharks) but was told it had to all be an Oiler quote.
For that reason, I object.

Woody said it, then him getting fired right after was the next solution. Timing is just too perfect to not use it.

It's a left vs. right, as usual.

I just thought we were smarter than this.
One option is a literal quote from the most recent coach to get fired referencing the next solution, a solution that they've been chasing for 15 years of their no goodness. It's perfect.
The other option has a reference to mud that makes no sense, a reference to sweatpants that's so old sweat pants are actually in style and a reference to tiers which admittedly is brilliant but is also a decade old. Mud, sweatpants and tiers should have been an E=NG title a decade ago and is, like the Oilers, stuck in the past.

Sweatpants are in style for people that carry no self worth.
