I think it will be better to wait until we reach the half-way mark of the season (Ep12). Seems a little premature to have a favourite character(s) poll at this point, when not even half the cast have been introduced yet...

Cheers.

How's about a speculation thread about the MMORPG that Konata and the others play? ^_^

I'm only up to Ep 2 so don't think I've noticed this. I'm not sure what the point of the thread would be? Make wild guesses what it might be, how it would play, I'm puzzled as to what the discussion would be about. Is such a topic worthy of discussion? Welcome other viewpoints on this.

Well, the episode 5 discussion alone has dozens of posts about what kind of MMORPG Konata plays, what character and class would she and the other characters play as, their habits in online gaming (like usage of slang and emoticons in ep. 5), etc. If nothing else, it's just something nerdy and fun for us to wallow in. I trust your own discretion as to whether or not it's a valid topic. Then again, the Kanon forum has a topic devoted to guessing what Akiko's jam was made of, and the Utawarerumono forum has a thread solely for speculating the gender of the archer twins...

That's fair enough. I'll have a look at the Ep 5 thread and see, I have no objection if it's along the examples you gave (Akiko's Jam and such like). As I mentioned, I haven't got to Ep 5 yet so if someone wishes to suggest an initial post to introduce such a thread, then please go ahead. It might encourage myself or another Mod to create the thread

Well, what about one specifically aimed at the "four main girls" of Konata, Kagami, Tsukasa, and Miyuki? Lucky Star revolves around them anyway, so they get the most exposure.

That might be a good idea. In practice we usually do multiple choice polls for the Favourite Characters, it would make a change where we have a poll where you can only select your favourite (one) character. Since there are only four main characters it should work.

We can create a Favourite Characters Poll later as well (around the half way point of the series) which can therefore be a multiple choice poll.

......so is that a 'yes, let's do it', or a 'let's wait and see'?

It's a "I'll create a Favourite Character Poll in the next day or so" and create a different "Favourite Characters Poll" around the half way point as well.

This will probably be a question to ask in the general discussion thread. I don't think we need a thread for this.

Sorry but no. It's not a matter worthy of a thread, especially since you can find enough hints of why this series is liked by reading our episode discussion threads. As Meophist suggested, you might even bring that question in the general discussion thread, but that's as far as it might go.

I wanted a game thread for Lucky Star as I mentioned on my previous post, but it seems like it's too hard to find, I just hope there will be one soon, but I think it won't come true...so unlucky *sobs*

Unless someone here has the game and is willing to share how it's played

At least six others have mentioned it... I'd also like a references thread for Lucky Star because (among other reasons that have already been listed) sometimes it feels like episode threads are being dominated by references instead of the actual episode itself (especially when there are arguments about a particular reference), and it'd be nice IMO if these could be sorted into a different thread altogether.

And they can take all the Lucky-Star-is-KyoAni-centric-advertising griefing over there, thank you.

Is it even possible to talk about an episode without bringing all the reference gimmick in the mix? I've seen episode 1-4 and I don't think I can put into words exactly what transpired in those episodes. A separate thread may be a good idea, but I'm not certain it will rid of reference-centric discussion/argument/"grief" to it's entirety from the episode discussion thread. Or perhaps I need to catch up to the latest episode to understand and to get a better feel for the concern raised to the need for a separate thread?

To say the truth, I also favor the creation of such a thread. But I'm thinking on how it could be sorted out. Because as Mr. Super kool said above, references discussions are part of the core of regular episode threads so if a new thread is created, it shall have a reason to stand other than discussing references. The main idea would be to make the thread either a reference thread, either a discussion thread.

I was thinking at something like keeping a list of all the references of Lucky Star, starting from episode 1 and to be kept updated until episode 24. Following this reasoning, 2 volunteers would be needed.

1) One person to write the introductory post (it will be the first of the new thread) --> Risaa, would you like to do that? You're a good writer after all

2) One person to keep trace of the references, willing to list them and to keep the list updated. The post would be located at the beginning at the thread as well, to be easily seen.
If there is nobody willing to do that fine, but I'd still like the idea of "references recollection" to be brought ahead in some way. ^^

Of course, the thread will also be used to discuss references, though it won't be necessary to remove them from the episode threads completely.
