When I came up with A GAME OF TWO HALVES my hopes were to find a way to bring football fans together across Babble's different boards, increase usage and give us an extra reason to log on. The response was small, but encouraging. Thanks. But as many threads do on here, it seemed to have its moment in the sun and disappear.
To run this as a game would take a long commitment from one person. If it ran where would it go on the site? Where would the weekly scores be and the league table? How would it attract anyone if no one knew how to find it?
I was sitting here thinking two halves of an orange would make a good logo when I asked myself why I was bothering? Sports Babble does attract some very perceptive fans, but not enough. If I increased participation I'd only make more work for myself and I'm not a computer genius. I'd like to give something back, to contribute, but I was thinking in terms of two halves of an orange, not a blood orange!
Probably it was either a bad idea, or I should have had enough sense to keep quiet? What do you think?
