# I think this is a reasonably well-aired debate.
When the board's on a roll it's fab (perfectly illustrated by the Osborne spate from yesterday), but it's nice to have something out there that's a bit of a trigger for those moments when hummus is at a low ebb and it's just nice to lose yourself in a little project for a short while.

# i like hummus
With pita bread, it's a nice healthy snack.

# I guess my issue is that by making it an arbitrary weekly thing
sometimes when there are just a few people mucking around something glorious can happen and as long as everyone is welcoming then we have good b3ta times and then the challenge comes up and it gets swamped in album covers or movie posters and none of the people that participate wind up sticking around.

I mean if they're going to stick around it's more because of funtimes and friendly people rather than a specific image challenge

# Whatever you do, someone will complain loudly and at length that b3ta is ruined. And usually give you a bullet point explanation as to exactly why and when the rot set in. With graphs too if you're really unlucky.
Not every challenge takes over the board, but I know what you mean, some days the speed of posts makes conversation impossible.

Basically what I'm saying is we need more divisive politicians dying.

# The band letters challenge really came out of left field.
Haven't seen the board move that fast in a very long time.

Also I like the word "funtimes".

# i quite enjoy the challenges tbh....its great when you're all... :O "why didnt i think of that!" when a chop/gif comes out of nowhere.
it is far more engaging having to really think about a subject out of your usual 'chop comfort zone'... imo. i think there has been a decent mix of compos so far this year, some quite open stuff like the sheep/panda and the more wordy pun-type ones.
