I couldn't help noticing that we are fast approaching 5000 threads and 50,000 threads. This is kind of neat. There are lots of new people perusing the site & I thought we might nominate, or remind ourselves of some of the more memorable and/or contentious thread topics. Here are a couple off the top of my head:
National Qualifying standards for Nationals
Pool measurement errors & effect on top ten compilations
I realize that I have not used the proper thread titles, but in some cases these topics spanned several threads. Have you any others to remember?
I also would like to take a moment to thank our tireless adminstrator/monitors, who have soldiered on doing a yucky job despite severe (at times) provocation & our sometimes petulant & immature (moi?) reactions to other posters. Perhaps they would like to nominate a most annoying thread?

Mr. Goodsmith:
I was wondering when you were going to contribute today. The reason why I keep calling you Mr. Goodsmith is because I really believe there is some good in you. That you do have good intentions despite all things that may be not be good in what you post. I don't know if you could really get this award.
Yikes Frank! Did you hit your head on something today of somethin?......Keep it together now Frank!!.......Your starting to freak me out now!....J/k of course!....I guess the Evil-GoodSmith may not actually be "pure" Evil to the core?.....i.e. there may actually be a shred of good in there somewhere??....Like I said somewhere else....I actually followed (and agreed with) some of his demented burnt orange stained logic in some of those controversial threads he started.
