Toast 16,063 Posted January 10 It also means that the thread will show up when people click on Unread Content, which is what I normally do. That brings up a list of threads that have new posts since I last visited. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could never sort by unread and be forced to see Diego notifying everyone that a Mongolian footballer from the 1960s is 87 today*. I just click on the 'Go to first unread post' button on threads I'm interested in and then return to the home page and mark everything as read. *EDIT: and the bloody Kill or Save games that clutter up the search function. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, @Wormfarmer, but you forgot to add the @ladyfiona's point (second hit of my post). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wormfarmer 426 Posted March 14 Actually, I had missed your post entirely. I just was familiar with Steve Lawrence so when he died I recognized him as a hit and did the update. Got your point up for Guillemin now, and thanks for keeping track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wormfarmer 426 Posted July 30 Hit table and scoreboard both updated through all above notifications.... I am actually quite surprised this pool has gone over a year! I would have estimated about 6 - 8 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
