What about Geekazoid OCD idea for a sticky thread of the week?

I like the idea - will you be updating the thread if something is pointed out that you missed ?

Hmm, probably not. I don't ever want to make a claim that this is all-inclusive, as that will make it more of an arse to write, and I want this to be as easy as possible to keep it going. Plus, now I've done one, hopefully people will be PMing me stuff anyway so nothing earth-shattering can be overlooked.

In addition what about picture / attachment of the week (if there is a particularly good one - probably most are hidden deep within B&B)

Aye, that would go under the PotW section. Safe to say anything of BurtTank calibre is going to make it in there.

I'll mention you, Kovacs Caprios. But I may spell your name wrong.

Will you be marketing Burtank merchandise, for I wish to add it to my Christmas list?

Doctor Glyndwr · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 32624

Taken outside the context under which it was created, that is such a bizarre image.

Joans · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 8661

I can't even remember the context (at least not that particular one), but I've just stared at it laughing for far too long. :DD

The Rev Owen · **Posted:** Fri Nov 21, 2008 17:49

The Burtank wasn't trying to get rid of a bomb last time I saw it.

That is excellent.

Maybe I shall even watch the 1966 Batman this weekend to celebrate.

We need a Story of BurtTank thread. It's too important a piece of this forum's mythology for the history to be lost.

Do we need a BETEO Wiki, like the old (rarely used) WoS one?

No, we need to get the bloody Joomla site running. With Grim... not about I'm a bit stymied though. I need him to work on the account bridge, otherwise we all need a second set of logins on the site.

Allow me to rephrase: Safe to say anything of BurtTank calibre that doesn't take the piss out of a car I used to drive is going to make it in there.

Quick Z! Put a him in a Zsararasrra Picasso!

Zardoz · **Posted:** Fri Nov 21, 2008 17:56

He wouldn't be seen dead in one of those.

metalangel · **Posted:** Fri Nov 21, 2008 18:00

He is regularly seen alive in one, though. However, at the time he is driving a drunken me home from the pub, so s'alright.

Doctor Glyndwr · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 32624

I think Zardoz meant, BurtTank wouldn't be seen dead in a Picasso.

The Doc is correct.

Good point, sometimes it's not worth splitting out, say, half a dozen linked posts; a line in the summary would draw people's attention to something important without messing around with the thread split.

Easy....

The little man appears to be rogering Burttank actually...

I thought my posts had gone down in BnB actually over the past few weeks....maybe not

I may make Burttank on a polo shirt I think *puts hand under chin and ponders* I could be a sandwich...um....polo-board thing for the forum I suppose

'For things of this calibre-join the BEEX! Burttank needs YOU' type thing
Side note: 'Can none of my friends join please, kthanks x'

I have a joke for every possible WOS I can think of. All of which would get me in trouble.

Keep constant chronicals of everything that goes on here at the BeeX forums, I'd guess.

5) Disagree, strongly.

BeeXer's attempts to drop the language down to a monkey high on crack continued, with several instances of the line blurring between 'lesser' and 'fewer', and had MaliA flicking through the MP5 catalogue.

Where's the update Doc?

What have been the goodest things.

Also: It's pretty much just your choice, yes? Or do all you Mods thrash it out between you?

Also: Have you posted the Airport card that you found?

How long have I got to come up with something incredibly witty or insightful so I get Post of the Week?

It's put together in the Mod forum, though I'm pretty sure the Doc is doing most if not all of the work on it right now. Contributions from everyone are welcomed, and there have been some this week.

Yeah, yesterday, I was a bit rushed in work and couldn't get to the post office. Should be with you tomorrow or Monday.

Well it's been up for an hour and no complaints this week, so that's a good start.

I do not feature enough. I get no credit for starting the Survivors thread. My name is not in large font and bolded. You did not make clear that I beat Craster in that argument.

"Started a thread about a new BBC sci-fi TV show", where it a BeeX Achievement, would be worth 0 beexpoints. That's how worthwhile that is.

But it can be "font size:small" from now on.

Your suggestion there was one argument that has ended is incorrect. You are both, in fact, engaged in a single multi-year argument which will continue until this shimmering sexual tension erupts in an orgy of blood and buggery.

MrChris · **Joined:** 1st Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 30498
