My other hobby is bicycling and I use this site bikejournal.com/preview.asp to keep track of miles time and other stuff. link Should TMP have a section to put things like the painting pledge or a database of members miniature collections? |

Interesting idea but I use the favorites function on my PC or Word/Excel for this so don't know that I see the need. |

I guess it could but it may be a lot of work for Bill. Should it? No. I don't view gaming as a painting or collecting competition. I don't know what percentage of people will put their figs in a database but I know it will not be 100%. Why do I care what is in the collection of a guy I will almost certainly never see or game with? I click on blog links that grab my attention but I don't understand the point of your suggestion. |

Me either, though I can see it might be of use to burglars, looking for rare, or expensive collections. |

I don't think we should. Collecting isn't really meant to be a competitive hobby. At least not beyond a small group.
As John says, It's of no interest to me. |

@Mako. I thought of that as well. |

Don't we have "the Pledge" that several here post periodically? I am not sure we need a separate board (Did I really say that?) but I think TMP talk or Wargaming General is a place to share that type information. That or a separate blog that you link to. VR

Ok then as poll choices we have
1. No, I wouldn't use it.
2. No, It's not worth the effort to set up and maintain.
3. No, We already have forums that are more useful/better,
4. Yes, my other hobby is Burglary and this would be a great resource. I don't use Bike Journal as a competitive tool but more for inspiration and tracking so wasn't looking from that angle. Mako11, good point! I might have to go make my BJ private:-) This was just a thought that occurred to me as I started to organize my miniatures and find ways to motivate my self to paint. Thanks. |

5. Combination of 1,2 and 3. |

I don't understand what it is supposed to achieve? What is this obsession with statistics, especially in sport? Statistics is maths and nobody does that for fun!!! |

6) Don't make me get my flying monkeys after you for suggesting more work for Dear Editor! |
| Grand Duke Natokina | 12 May 2013 5:11 p.m. PST |
I probably would not use it. |

i can see a number of members becoming very competitive and showing off their collections simply to boost their own egos.Not for me Thank you |
