We need more competition. I think only maybe 3-5 people, total, submitted forums last week.

It’s sort of ironic that, six months ago, people were complaining about there being too many forum ideas to look through. The results? “All the forums suck.”

Lately, there have been perhaps 5 pages of forums, total, even without any downvoting problems. The quality, originality, and funniness factor has declined noticeably, in my opinion.

Of course, some people will always say that the winning forums “suck” depending on whose they are… but the general idea that more competition and choice benefits all stands unbumailable, so please, for the love of ****, write some forum ideas and submit them every week.

Just noticed this.

In truth, I think your (extremly lengthy) winning streak has people frustrated enough that many don’t bother entering any more. I think it would first take a few weeks of you not winning, and then a dramatic uptick in activity in buildr. So I guess my point is, I’m not sure. Those of us with high buildr scores eat so many entries and win so much, I think a lot of people feel it’s not even worth entering.
