    I say they should have logical endings and that they should end.

    Count to 1,000,000: Sure it's a nice place for people to chat in a thread but is it likely they're ever going to make it? I mean if that's their goal then fine.

    Last Post Wins: As it stands now it is 4 pages of 'I win' and 'No I win'. It's infinite...sort of like Animal Crossing. If you've seen egoraptor's 'Awesome Crossing' you know what I mean. The only way a member could win this game is if they have thread locking privileges, staff in other words. And when a staff does close the thread, another thread pops up with a member complaining that the staff member was abusing his/her powers.

    I know what the majority of you are going to comment with. 'Well if you don't like it than don't read them.' Well it is kind of difficult to do when these two are at the top of the Spam Zone and with my accursed curiosity I end up reading them anyway. Consider this like my 'To all you Role-Players' thread. Except this one doesn't have too much of a purpose aside from me letting off a little steam directed at these two Games.

    To me Games have a start and an end.Start at Point A and end at Point B. 'Count to 1,000,000' does have an ending point granted but 'Last Post Wins' does not. There is no ending point to this game. It just goes on and on and on. It would be like if Hideo Kojima did not end Twin Snakes with FoxDIE finally offing Liquid and Liquid just kept coming back. It's a self-defeating continuous loop.

    This is not a flame directed to anyone in particular.

    ^^ exactly xD IMO (though since I like own a 5th off the count to a million thread I am slightly boased >_>;) there is nothing wrong with it ^^ it is one of the most peaceful threads that there is, in fact I recall there only ever being one argument, and that was about RP characters >_>;

    The count to a million thread is also where a lot of people go to find friends xD heck most of the people I talk to I met on there ^^

    I has magical cookies ^^

    *cookie for L_F*

    Though I do see your point, some of the games are seriously pointless xD

    Since it's really just the Count to 1,000,000 thread. Based on CtR's explanation and from what I have glimpsed.

    Yes.
