E08 in Exile

Are we going to mount an offense to reclaim our board after the election? ?Or will we stay over here? ?We are the real E08 exiled to the anniversary boards much in the same way the occupied nations of Europe had governments existing in Exile in WWII. ?

I want to go home.?

Re: E08 in Exile

  • we're the Tibet of the nest =( ... i think we should reclaim our territory november 5th.
  • My first instinct is to see what happens over there first, but if it's still crazy there's no better time to launch an offensive. 

    I'm sure the first day or two afterwards will remain nutso, it may even reach a fever pitch. I vote for Nov 10 (Monday) as our D-day.

  • I say we re-claim on November 6th or 7th. I'm afraid of what will happen over there on November 5th.

     

  • We should probably ready a plan of attack.

    Ditto.  We should just flood it on Nov 10 with posts about issues, and just ignore all the crazies.  Pretend they are not even there.

  • I agree. I think that eventually our posts about actually issues and our crazy use of logic will drive many of them away.

     

    We have to be sure to completely IGNORE the crazies though. If we respond to them or ackknowledge their existance we will just feed their craziness.

    Ditto, and to add, I think that means not even opening certain folks' posts.

    We need to get everyone on board with this in order to mount a full-frontal assault. ??

  • I think Nov. 10 is reasonable. Hopefully most of the crazies will be bored by then.

  • I'm with you...

  • Someone should draft a strategic plan (or tactical plan).

    What crazy conservatives? Wink

    I agree-going after one's own is a good idea.  I just hope both sides hold up their end (it has failed before, but I am working on renewing my faith in that area).  I feel like we need a William Wallace here "They can take our sanity, but they can not take ....our E08!"

  • I really like BMs idea.

     

    I say, either we go after our own OR we completely ignore them. I think those are really the only two options. we can't get sucked into to the crazies....

    I kinda like Kristen and Kevin, but I willing to go after her, if its good for the team.

  • I'm in! November 10th it is. I'll get started on the t-shirts. :)

    And I will go after my own, if need be. By any means neccessary!

  • Word.  Nov. 10th.  Ignoring crazies or going after them?  Whatever the team decides is good with me.
  • Man - I am going to have to cancel some patients........I am in.
  • So Nov 10 - to ignore or take down our own - just let me know. Good idea - Maybe I should take the day off of work. Hmm
    Slainte!

  • I'm in. I vote to ignore, though. We shouldn't even stoop to their level -- and it's near impossible to reason with crazies anyway.

     

    And don't forget--ignoring people makes them even madder!

  • imageElizabeth81:

    I say we re-claim on November 6th or 7th. I'm afraid of what will happen over there on November 5th.

     

    Ditto.  I think it's going to take a few days for the election reaction to calm down.

  • I'm in for November 10, if and only if the election is decided on the 4th or 5th. :)

     

    I say we need a five day buffer.

  • I'm in.  Marisa can watch Blue's Clues all day if that's what it takes.  For the greater good.

    NOV. 10th, will be a historical day, I tell you!
