Who cares whether you make the initial post. This isn't the Sharks board here.

What if, with preparation, someone made a sweet ass GDT?

I don't think things need to be kept in line, everything is going just fine as it is, sans 1 coincidence were apparently 3 got made at once. If a mod wants to step in and organize something that's one thing, but I feel like you're just trying to take power in something that isn't there for the taking...

We need to find some Hawks fans who are good with photoshop. Anyone know anybody? I feel like everyone here is pretty clueless, hence the lack of playoff avatars to this point

If anyone had the skills to do that, they would've been doing it already. We need to kidnap one of those silicon valley kids.

I feel that we need to represent a little bit more with the GDTs. There must be some people around here with graphic design talents.
I agree with this. Why bother to spend a ton of time when somebody else may create one? That's the point of this thread.

We could learn a thing or two from the Sharks board. I always get a good laugh going over there.

I'm sure some people here do, they just have not been given a chance.

I made the playoff avatars last year in a pinch because nobody else had and the playoffs started in a few days I think. They ended up being pretty well received. I'm sure I can come up with something serviceable before Thursday. As far as fancy GDT's go, I would have made one ages ago if GDT's weren't Teemu's thing. I'm planning on doing one for the playoffs at some point.

I dont see why everyone is getting in a stink just because who made the thread. The idea was pretty well received before and if one of our 3 mods had the time/urge to make this thread I am pretty sure plenty of people would be signing up.

I'll take game 4. Since I now know that no one else will be making one, then I'll try my best photoshop(even though I'm not good but I'll do my best).

Would need to get our picks back



I like this idea for the POs. I may take a game if I get the perfect idea and find back my photoshop skills

Well, the Oilers and Wild have had good ones...and given that both teams are out of the playoffs, we could graciously offer the opportunity to make GDTs for us.

My vote too. Seems B&BHawks came out of nowhere and started making them. Not sure why? We've had a guy making them for as long as I remember.

Well Teemu has been kind of MIA for a lot of the season with it. Everyone had been making them, then Belugas went on a winning streak. We didn't win the last game, so someone else should have been up, but then he created this thread almost just so he could be first and go again.

I almost just made 1 at midnight, and I should have considering my record when I make them is pretty bad this year.

Exactly. The idea is a good one but people don't like a noob taking charge. Get over it. Stop knocking people on here for trying to be creative or taking charge. Change is good every once in a while.

As far as Teemu. He can still make it but did anyone ever consider it may be a chore to do every damn game the Hawks play?

Even though my skills aren't great, I'm going to give my best effort for Game 3. I have a very creative mind, but I need to figured out a way to translate that aspect into a very cool hockey forum GDT.

Approved, same goes for you as Cullksinikers.
This thread is hilarious. If someone wants to go through the effort of making a GDT they should be able to do whatever they want creatively.

Why don't we all start a GDT, and then start another thread with a poll to vote for which one we want to use?

Really? If I feel like making a GDT thread I will, even if I don't sign up on your little sheet. For that matter if I feel like making 10 GDT's for the same god damn game I will.

This is just dumb. If 5 guys want to try and make a GDT then let them, not a big deal then a MOD (you know it is his job) can merge them if he wants.

I don't like it because you are telling me what I can or can't do on a free message board. There is rules to the message boards but after that I can do what I want. And if I want to spend my time making a GDT thread I will for any/all games I want to. After that if you don't want to post in it that's your choice or if a mod wants to merge them then so be it.

Point is if anyone wants to be creative and enjoys making a good looking GDT thread let them. If they get merged then we just have some more good looking posts in the GDT.

Yea, so when we go to the SCF game 7 and some other scrub tries making a thread, I will make mine so much better that it will be impossible to ignore

I don't see the big deal in making a GDT signup thread. What is the harm?

If you don't like me taking charge (I don't even think I was, I made a freaking thread to organize something) then, well, that's your own problem. Get over it.
