While I think deleting others annos and links from one of your ideas is low class, it remains a legal tool for a Halfbaker to use.

So I've got use my imagination to "make the best of, best of, best of, a bad situation" (Gladys Knight and the Pips) and post this idea.

The challenge for the posters is to create the appearance of order in an ever changing set of deleted annotations.

Posters are encouraged to create an annotation, and then delete it after a suitable period of time. The part of the idea's poster will be played by [normzone], who will periodically delete an annotation of my choosing.

If things appear too chaotic and I can make it more orderly by deletion, I will do so. If things appear too orderly and I can make it look more chaotic by deletion, I will do so.

       Well, I gotta say, you've definitely out-maneuvered me; I honestly never thought you'd actually do it...

       I predict the next annotation will include a disgusting personal revelation which will then be quickly edited to be something innocuous.
