This concept would work much better as a live game, where the people who screwed up were eliminated.
It would also work much better here if we added a rule that you couldn't reply to your own post.
I purposely left the rules loose to promote chaos. It worked.
I thought though that not responding to one's own post was automatic. I underestimated the ability of the sports forum intelligentsia to even screw that up.

Do you use an old Playboy when posting here?
No, my recall of older players is a little better, and most likely doesn't duplicate a previous post. Hard to keep up with all the names listed.
No, what I meant is that you passed over my Dick Tracewski entry after you posted Ron Reed.
sorry I didn't see it. I stepped away for a second and your post wasn't there when I got back so I posted the next name. Sorry Will have to make sure I double check next time.
I'm not going to go back and see when it officially died, but if you replied to your own post then yes, you helped kill the thread. If you replied to your own post with a name that didn't start with the last letter of the name in your prior post, then you get double credit.
This is for you @thisistheshow - Jim Rice was actually a pretty good player.
