Your opinions have been heard. I will lift HDC's beer tax. And as for creating jobs, I hereby name you my administration's Secretary of Zymurgy.

Thanks for speaking up. Those numbers ain't great. The site waxes and wanes. Usually on account of new members like yourself showing up, stirring things up and getting us older members as excited as we can be. I want to do something to keep the energy rolling.

Good to hear.

Thanks! And yeah, nobody wants to talk about soup. I'll scrap that one.

I think the issue in the decade lists is that we've treaded on a lot of that ground before. Works for casual discussion, but anything more formal is a lot of energy we've already thrown out. I thought of the book list because it's a section that gets sorely neglected. Good to know you like the new member's section idea, If you have any thoughts on that, please let me know.

Hey- I said I liked that one!

Soup is the food of the gods!

But you were right initially- you DID do that thread already.

1.) Movie Court

Would this be like a debate team thing? Could be quite interesting, maybe it could be merged with idea #5 Film Club, get a film someone likes & dislikes, encourage others to watch and then they can lead each side of the argument. Could be a bugger to arrange though.

2.) Top 100 Books

Defo, I would amend it slightly though as some of the best horror fiction I know are specific short stories as opposed to books. Would it include graphic novels also?

3.) HDC Sampler

Yes, there are some talented people on this site, lets give them a more prominent place to show off a little.

4.) Something in the New Members Section

Anything to encourage more noobs is a good idea.

5.) Film club

See #1

6.) Favorite Soup Thread

Lets mix it up a little to include a versus contest against chowders.

They all sound great ideas, I would like to see a forum just for amateur film makers, members could offer or seek advice on budgets, locations, acting, directing, special effects and make up or any other advice needed.
I use Tomato soup for my fake blood and Scotch Broth makes very good vomit, I'm sure a soup thread would come in really handy.:o

Very nice ideas, loved no. 1, 2 & 3 most. Carry on, Mr. President.:)

Thanks for the new title....I'm fermenting as I type.

now if you could do something about these dead birds and fish.
