*** (CLOSED) BAKER'S DOZEN - Movies in which they're on a train ***

Not that there are any real hard and fast rules regarding these things but usually there's one Baker's Dozen thread going at a time with whoever has the 13th entry getting the honors of starting a new one.

reply

I wasn't notified, and sometimes
the 13th poster is empty-handed.

reply

Like I said there are no official rules surrounding these things, just how they've carried on since I've been contributing. If people are cool with multiple dozens out there at the same time, then no harm no foul.

reply

If it really is a tradition, #13 should probably make a side note when he makes the post. Posters less than 10 weeks old aren't too likely to be aware.

My turn for a dozen thread.
Give me a few moments.

reply

It's not really an issue and I just said it as a friendly heads up since I know yesterday there were a couple going at once and when I got the 13th on one of them I didn't start a new one since there was already another under way. Most people on the general discussion side are pretty easy going so if there are a couple going at once it's not going to cause total anarchy lol

reply

Well, I've seen a lot of hard-headed people on here, so I'm going to say that if it's not really an issue, there's no need to bring it up, and I would've still made the dozen thread in your place. You must've not had any ideas.

It was just a friendly heads up as to how the dozens around here have run since I've been participating and I mentioned it since you were seemingly new to them. You are free to reject that heads up and clearly you have. I've been number 13 and started numerous dozens threads and coming up with an idea really isn't an issue so I ask that you kindly not tell me that I must've had no ideas since my motivation was simply out of respect for the existing uncompleted thread. Just as I wrapped up your train one and passed on starting a new one since there was an active one on tech underway. If you want to start a new one in spite of that, have at it, you'll hear no more from me.

Well, you know what they say.
The world needs a hero.

reply

Not sure about needing heroes but I'd settle for good ol' fashion civility. Have a good day.

reply

Paladin had started one about half an hour before this one on Tech.

reply

Was he the 13th on the previous one? It's pretty hard to keep up.

reply

Kuku was the 13th and Paladin offered a bonus entry and Kuku asked him if he wanted to start the next one since he didn't have any ideas. That happens from time to time as well.
