How about:

Index of "***-Point Army" threads
I like this one because it keeps the appearance of mathematical variables, but I've added a fourth asterisk to (hopefully) make it searchable.

Edit: Hmm, I tried searching and the computer doesn't think that **** is a word, so I'll use it for now, but when something better comes along I'll proabably change it again.

Re: "**** Point Army" thread compilation

You might just try "[BLANK]" or something, as a unique and easily searchable identifier.

I don't know that people will be searching for "***", but the hope is that when they search for "300 point army" that your ***-Point Army thread will come up. Anyway, the sticky should help a lot.

EDIT TO ADD: When you type in "200 point army" and search titles only, this thread is the first one that shows up. Sweet!

Re: "**** Point Army" thread compilation

Now then, searchability is unimportant

This is a great idea, and I'm glad some one actually did it. I thought about it for about half a second and then quickly wrote it off as too much work.

Thanks again and +rep

-Killometer, thankingly.


Also, I had a moment-4 X's for the title. Easy to remember, easy to interpret, no unintended connotations, long enough to Search for (not that that one matters as much anymore) and some of the armies values are 4 digits anyways.

Re: "XXXX Point Army" thread compilation

I've delved as far back into the depths of the Competitive Armies Discussion forum as I think is reasonable. If anyone feels that I have missed anything that is worth recoerding, please feel free to pm me the link, or post it here.

Next I will be weeding out some of the weaker threads, then I will be going through the Marvel threads, as requested by Ollie.

Thanks for all the positive feedback, everybody.

Edit: All right, I've gone through every thread from my original post and pruned a couple dozen. *Whew!* I feel pretty good about where the list is now.

Edit (again): It looks like the only link from the Marvel forums was the one Ollie gave me, but there are some other (though not many) armies that include those figures.

Re: "XXXX Point Army" thread compilation

Great job putting this together. It must have taken a long time to find all these threads.

Thanks. Finding everything wasn't too bad. The hardest part was deciding which threads to axe. I'm kind of obsessive and I spent quite a while trying to find a mathematical formula based off things like number of responses, age of the thread, etc., but eventually realized that I just had to go with my best judgement.
