Just getting a quick interest check w/r/t feasibility of a future Cymbal Monkey thread launch so I can get a detailed action plan going for a future thread. Thanks.

I might, if I thought of a funny joke or amusing story to share. Like this:

What do you call shipping snacks to your old girlfriend?

So what you're saying is that you're looking for a thread with high potential for user contribution. Fair enough, fair enough. This is good info even though it might lead to development delays. I'm hoping to get this thread launched second quarter of 2019.

2019 is the start of an excellent countdown if you say it slow enough.

If you're out on the road
Feeling lonely, and so cold
All you have to do is call my name
And I'll post there on the next train

Where you post, I will post
Anywhere that you tell me to
If you need, you need me to post with you
I will post where you post

while we appreciate your courtesy in doing an interest check beofre posting a thread, I can't help but notice you failed to do an interest check before posting this thread. maybe someone could have given you some tips on how to properly execute an interest check, for example maybe you should have included a poll? anyway we're a fairly casual bunch here, I don't want to make too big a deal about it, but perhaps in the future you'll try to get a sense of people's thoughts before asking for input like this

It depends on if you mean a "future cymbal monkey thread" or a "future cymbal monkey thread"

Actually no, I would post in both for sure

Manifisto


it's great that we're being proactive about this potential thread launch, but we should stop and ask whether we are leveraging the synergies. time to think outside the box.

idk op, future cymbal monkey thread real estate has a pretty high premium i dont think i could afford it :ohdear:

funmanguy

What time is it?
I probably won't, but that's not because you're future thread is bad, rather because I don't always have or make time to check out all the yob threads.

I hope your thread is successful either way.

google THIS

As it happens I work for a website optimization firm so I should be able to set up an A/B test to validate your thread idea.

BYOB with and without your thread, which version has the strongest KPIs (Key Posting Indicators)? Which has the best conversion rate (words into laughs ofc). If your thread idea wins you can post your actual thread with confidence.

We'll just need about 50,000 users to attain statistical significance. We have that many, right?

not only am i posting in it

i stickied it :evilbuddy:


Thank you for the beautiful sig Machai!

I'm hoping to have the first trailers for the thread out later this year but as it stands the details of the thread are both secret and subject to change.

We're really going to try to make this thread as affordable as possible for anyone who wants to post in it. Whether you're Lowtax himself or a reg'18.

Man I would love to be able to workshop the thread like this but I'm worried about the costs of getting people in for a closed beta, the legal fees preparing NDAs and just the time this will add on to the project. I guess this just reaffirm's my team's beliefs that we might need to launch an indiegogo or something if we really wanna do this thread right.


Anyways, thanks for you enthusiasm, feedback and interest in this thread. Hopefully by Q3 or 4 we'll have the first trailer to show all of you and there's a strong possibility that we'll be accepting pre-posts, which of course means exclusive pre-posting bonuses!

Sorry op, I'd, post in your thread, but I'm busy planning my own, except I can't post threads on my phone, so I'm actually just hijacking yours.

this now the stories about birds thread

One time I saw a bald eagle stalking a mama loon and her babies for like two days and was impressed by the vigilance and solidarity of loonkind. Those birds are loud.

One time I got out of the shower, got dressed, took the dog outside, started walking and a bird pooped on my head.
Thank you, that's my bird story.

does this post have an automatically playing ukulele soundtrack for anyone else?

I just wish I had time for one more bowl of chili



will you thread be conversational or geared towards learning? I’m debating about booking a room at the local library for the occasion.

I'm hoping it'll be kind of an open forum style of thread. Lots of room for participation but with enough structure and direction to keep it focused and educational.
