Seriously - lose the graveyard. Its like wading through a forum where every member has the exact same 16-line signature. Not necessary.

If the so-called graveyard is that important to anyone, I'd posit they need therapy. Lots and lots of therapy.

I can see why the graveyard would get annoying, especially since this looks to be a long 3 way battle followed by an even longer 2-way battle. But Raptor just died, it deserves to be in the graveyard for a while. And it's not that hard to skim past it as your reading the thread.
Possible compromise: We keep the graveyard until tommorrow to give Raptor it's proper respects. Then drop it until the next ride dies and keep it for 2 days before dropping it until the final results are in. But that's probably too complicated. Just easier to keep it and skim past as your reading.

Proper respects? WTF??? What are you smoking, and where do I get some?
But whatever - do whatever makes you happy. But, aren't you supposed to be in class by now? Or are you in the afternoon class?

Whats the big deal with the graveyard? Its just text on a screen. Its a little goofy but so what? Everyone is goofy in some way.

LOL yeah it was a little corny and I thought about revising it, but I was in the spirit of things :) To say it in a more boring way: for the sake of people that are just joining this thread, it would be helpful to show them who has been eliminated and when, especially when a ride just got eliminated. And as far as scrolling goes, it doesn't really add any time, because I think it shows a certain number of posts per page regardless.

Hey Brandon
Guess what? I am a therapist. I would posit that there is no need for therapy. I would however question your issue with it.
It does not appear to bother many people. It is super easy to read the top of each post without the graveyard.
Seems you are bothered by so little.
It did not take me 4 degrees and my therapist licence to see this.
Lisa, MSW, RSW.
I'm going out to get some air.
While the grave yard is around more for theming than reference at this point. I really appreciated when it first came out.
I did not initially know the order the rides were evicted at.
I do know this order now but I also find it cool that a person spent time looking up each rides start date.
Now, I don't look at it each time but I do find it neat that is there.
Also I find is really easy not to look at rather than complain about.
I'm going out to get some air.

I'm reviving the graveyard just to piss you off DJ. ;) You know the only reason you don't want to see it is because you are so sad all of those coasters have passed away.
