Slogans, statistics and stuff
Latest News:
Top 100 List now shows only slogans which are max. 365 days old.
Now showing the latest OSC members's slogans with a direct link to the member's slogan page.
Now showing printed slogans in the Top 100 List with yellow background.
Now showing the OSC Top 100!
Slogans are one of the truly fun parts of threadless, even though it lacks some functionality. One big baddy is the absence of a comment function but sloganeers have found ways around that by building up communities. If you love slogans and you have a feeling that your precious words are not really appreciated by the slobbering masses then hop on over to a brighter place: Official Slogan Club.
Of course word loving natures may also like numbers, so I have set up a simple Slogan Statistics page which can cough up a quick sum up of what the OSC member have up and running. Just hop on over:
Try not to stress the server too much, it is a cheap one. Comments are welcome.

And you guys are still here, too. It's like a time machine. My daughter is now 2 years and 4 months old... time to get a tiny fragment of life back.

Dude, Thanks a million for this blog!!!!!!!!
bygrinstow
Two-and-a-half-ish years sounds about right...

@soloyo: You're welcome. I am really surprised my page still works. I see you already have three printed slogans! I never got any of mine printed, so I bow my head!

Dude, you got a bunch of great slogans, stick around. threadless has made changes to the way slogans are submitted. Soon you will be able to re-sub your old slognas in case you think they will have a better chance at getting printed nowdays.
rossmat8
Welcome back dude! You were always one of my favorite sloganeers, so glad to see you'll be submitting again.
colorfool
Hey ross, love your profile picture! I never said anything about submitting slogans again... but... oh well, the brain just starts cooking them up, I can feel it! Or maybe it's just a fart.

Colorful, would it be too much to ask for a little update ( highlight ) to the printed slogans on the hall of fame?
colorfool
That depends... sadly that update always was a manual process because there never was a machine-readable place on threadless where this could be read from. So for an update to happen I would have to 1) Find out where I saved this data... it's been more then 2 years after all. 2) But more importantly I would need a comprehensive list of printed slogans. Does anyone keep one, these days?
soloyo
the OSC has one that it's almost complete or you can check my spoiler blogs
colorfool
I went through the OSC list and updated my database. Let me know if you find a missing one.
colorfool
@soloyo: You posted this over in another blog: "I don't think any of us will be getting any of our new slogans into the hall of fame, not with this scoring system anyway"
Did the system change while I was gone? Or is it just because after such a long time tons of great slogans have clogged the top 100? I am considering to introduce a new view on the top 100 where the age of a slogan will slowly pull it back into wordy nothingness.
soloyo
read all about it here
colorfool
Well, alright, so that wouldn't really hold people back from scoring high marks. So I think I will really just add a date filter of sorts to the hall of fame.
colorfool
I now capped the Top 100 list at 365 days. Slogans older then that won't appear. Now everyone has a fair chance to appear on the list some day. And phew, it was a tough move because that means I am off the list, now... sniff.
colorfool
I couldn't help noticing that now not a single entry of the top 100 is marked as printed... I cannot believe that this is true. So: Please point out printed slogans to me! I took my print info from the OSC list. Seems like the last year is missing, there?
soloyo
It's true. there are so many slogans with amazing scores that have been ignore by threadless. Two of my prints didn't make it to the hall of fame while some others did.
tiggyvg
epic :D
soloyo
I would like to see two halls of fame one before and another after the voting system changed.
soloyo
I'm still on the Hall of fame!

the good old days

I remember this... like it was in another life, or something...
staffell
When I was into sloganing. That's a bygone era indeed.
