Have any threads that seemed really good, but never got off the ground (this might be one:p)? If so, post 'em here! Here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=490415) is one of mine to start with.

I tried to create Sissymas to replace Christmas a while ago. It was based on the real life and works of Sissy Spacek. Nobody else appreciated what I thought to be a brilliant idea.

Well, it's basically glorifying a Hollywoodite in the mold of the whole Chuck Norris debacle, and that gets old in a heartbeat. It may have been brilliant, but it was essentially derivative.

There were a couple of threads i did that kinda crashed.
The one that crashed the quickest was the one involving Cheney and Rumsfeld and their relationship to the MK-ULTRA project.

Honourable mention to one other, though - the U.S. churches that celebrated Darwin's Birthday.

This one appears to be tanking: Just had to be the first.

What I mean is, a thread about the sexiest woman on NS should be able to get more than a messily 3625 post.

Needs more cowbell, i think.
Replace "cowbell" with "sex in varying forms", and i'm pretty sure it'll stick around a while.
To be fair, a few posters provided quite a bit towards the endeavour of that particular thread.
