I was going to dress this up as an idea - involving icons/medals next to members' usernames to indicate such things as length of service, being a moderator, providing specialist knowledge to an idea that lifts it to something exceptional, or taking the HBed concept into the real world in an exceptional
way (a la N-Prize) - however, this would all be an elaborate smokescreen over the fact that I'm very grateful to a particular H'Baker (whom I won't name) for help over the last weekend. Cheers mate.

o.k. lets eliminate ... "mate" indicates male! |
|
|
wont name implies someone well known; |
|
|
"weekend" implies that he has a job. That must narrow the
field. |
|
|
"help" also weeds out a few. |
|
|
The spectrum is further filtered by the fact that [Jin] has
clearly survived the experience. |
|
|
if you believe that the author really is [Jinbish] |
|
|
//"help"// yeah, that kinda rules out [8th] |
|
|
[8th of 7] could've helped. After all, "many hands make light work". |
|
|
Sure, maybe they helped by settling a bar bet about the
number of ways there are to skin a cat. |
|
|
<blush> *not* I hasten to add because I provided any assistance whatsoever, but rather because having briefly talked about it a week earlier, ended up totally forgetting about it come the event. Sorry JB :( |

don't know .. first I thought HB was kind of stagnant
by not adding all sorts of bells and whistles like this
... in the past I would have been all for it .. but now I
understand better adding/changing anything will
mean feature creep and will mess the whole thing
up. Personally I could not resist, I'd be adding all
sorts of crap to HB to make it better ... good thing
I'm not running the show |

Exactly, [ix]. That's why I didn't expand the idea. No point
providing cover for a non-invention if the cover has a big
target that says 'heretic - shoot me!' |
|
|
oh, I didn't notice your smokescreen until now ... I
just read the core idea ... now it makes sense |
|
|
instead of 3 just get a golden pastry for your idea. That would be fun to see. But I think I have so many fish bones I should get the black mushroom. |
