I like filling the viewing area with my photos, but not to the extent where you're forced to see it in pieces while you scroll through the image. *sigh* *BLAMES IT ON THE LIMITED EDITING TIME....

aveschapinas Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 So, according to the rules in the first post, you can't post two consecutive letter birds. I've been follwing this rule and I think it does add a little fun since if you have a great C bird you have to either wait for someone to post the B or forego your C until next time we go through the alphabet. However, I would propose skipping Q and X (and maybe Z?) because we've used up the "valid" responses, or else establishing that those letters will be joke birds. What do you all think? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonesome55dove Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Here's my dimes worth: I've been participating in this one from the start so in all due respect I suggest we ask the OP @Nighthawk01 to grant any changes since he did start this thread, however, some of us, myself included, have already broken or bent the rules I still think we should ask first. Or we could abandon this thread totally and start a new one...just sayin'! ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aveschapinas Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 OK let's see if Nighthawk has any feelings about dropping the tough letters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the idea of '' joke birds'' for those three letters though, like a funny photo or maybe a bird phrase/saying or even a corny bird joke. ? Birds of a feather flock together. Q: Why do birds fly south in the winter?A: Because it's too far to walk! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, maybe we could fly that idea past @Nighthawk01 and see what he thinks. Sometimes we come to a standstill for days because everyone tries to avoid those three letters. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor L. Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I am so sorry, everyone. For reference, this is Nighthawk (changed to another account). I’m so sorry I haven’t responded sooner. I’ve been very busy recently. Feel free to change the rules however you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
