Just a little game to get me through the winter blahs. I'll start by posting my three favorite something (I haven't decided what yet; it might be breakfast cereals, english-language poets, or US Presidents).

The next person then posts their three favorite whatever (whether breakfast cereals, english-language poets, or US Presidents), then chooses a new subject and posts their three favorites. The thread progresses, each person posting two "3 favorites" lists: one on the subject chosen by the previous poster, and one of their own choosing. Make sense?

Okay, my three favorite OSC novels (in no particular order) are:
1. Ender's Game
2. Seventh Son
3. Speaker for the Dead

Yeah, multi-post is a problem. Default, I'd say, is go with final poster. Etiquette might be for the second-poster to edit their first list to match the list of the previous poster. So, in this case, Traceria should change her (it is her, right?) favorite OSC novels to instead be her favorite Films.
