So instead of metal wars a different metal community project could be started but this would need some kind of though process injected into it.

I feel a poll coming on....

I know what Batty means though. Myself, Frown, Dr Rezz and others tried to revive the "Weekly Mixtape" thread and all had to slink away with our tails between our legs. Sometimes people just are not prepared to put the time in. However I agree with you that whoever is running it needs to keep on point, as people will of course think, well if he/she (who am I kidding? It's he!) isn't going to bother then why should I?

You need some sort of basic commitment from one or more people that they will keep it going, and nudge people and bug them to remember to vote, as Batty does with his Survivor thread. Most of the time, people here need a good kick up the arse otherwise they'll just sit on the couch and veg all day (no offence Batty; I know you're working now) and for these things to work, as I found out with the PRAC (RIP) and the HMAC (also RIP) you have to hustle, bother, annoy and push people all the time, or they will let it die.
