Best Picture winners does have a set number of items; the number just happens to be in the 80's. More importantly, if they choose the contestants the way they do on certain other shows, they don't want to artificially limit the choices. (Do you want to see the list end at two because someone picks the Best Pic from 1978? Or worse, because they pick The Deer Hunter, which was named Best Pic of 1979 at the March 1980 ceremony?)
Protecting idiots from themselves just leads to more idiots.

Oh, and don't have your champions change outfits during the same episode!

Alternately, don't stop tape while that happens.

Um, it wasn't exactly a new concept in 2001 either.

I'm just thrilled at having my name attached to a seven year old 'net game hosted by someone who stormed out of here a couple months ago.

Just curious. What was it that he did wrong years ago, that made him get so much hate from you, and just about everyone else on this site, and as a result, made him leave the boards a couple of months ago?

And did this date back to the ATGS days, as well?

I don't remember the exact details, but he made some ridiculous statement. When called out on it, he threw a fit and left the board.

He then returned several months later, got called out again, and threw another fit before leaving the board again. However, on that second occasion, he made a crass comment invoking the late Randy Amasia.

ETA: Start here, the offensive comment starts at post #14. I don't know where his original sayonara is; my loss of respect for Wuthrich kinda hinders my desire to search for the post...

Whoa whoa WHOA I don't think we're talking about the same thread here... I never "stormed out" months ago. I just hardly ever post here. Mark, please defend yourself. Cause I never posted those offending comments you speak of.

No, you're safe...for now. ;-)

The guy in question is the one who ran the Netgame that you linked. A few months ago, he made a comment that some members found disparaging. He then stormed off the board and returned a few months later. When mocked for returning (after such a dramatic exit), he posted a couple of rants, and brought up a respected, deceased member of another forum.

The link I posted a couple posts up includes the second round of rants...
