Questions for the SC scan thread follower
Hi everyone!
I have some questions for the SC scan thread followers (http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/174557-...-skank-canada/).
This year (2011) I have done the scan scan thread to continue Mcminsen idea (year 2010) of the thread Mcminsen's coupon zone (http://forum.smartcanucks.ca/163829-...n-zone-canada/). We both have learn alot by doing those thread and really like it. But in the same time this is alot of work.
I'm now thinking of year 2012 :cheesygrin:
For now, I'm not sure I will take the leed of that kind of thread for 2012. I think it will be a good idea if someone else take it. Be sure I will help the new SCer doing it like Mcminsen have help me this year. BTW, I already received a PM from someone who want to help for 2012 and I'm really happy to see it. I hope we could talk about it all together to try to organised this before the beginning of the new year.
Is there a way to do it better, more easier, or more collaborative? I want your input on this.
I saw alot of wiki thread on the forum, but I'm not sure this is the solution. Why? Because we have alot of entries on the sc scan thread and I can't index all of them in only one post (with the settings of the forum), I need 3 differents post to list all coupons and I also need to removed all the expired one (if don't removed it, I will need more than 6 post to list all of them). Also, that kind of list is sometime long or hard to "save" on the forum (take some minutes after I push the "save button" of each post)... By chance I do it on my computer file, so if the site crash (sorry) I don't have to re-write everything but just do an other (smaller) copy and paste later.
Other thing, I try to keep the index of the sc scan thread the more constant as possible to have it easier to use for everybody and with all the essential info and with a clickable link for who need the extra info or to see an image of the coupon. I'm scare that we could have difficulties with the constance if we are alot of people doing/writing the index. If this become a mess it will not be useful :(
In a private message conversation between me an Mcminsen, Mcminsen suggest it could be an idea to do the SC scan thread on monthly basis instead of yearly basis... And keep track of the past month through a link on the first post. This sound a good idea to me. This way, we could have different SCer doing the index each month. It is a good idea? What do you think about that?
I know lot of you SCer love the SC scan thread to see what is out there, to do your wishlist, to do your tradelist (yeah I know it faster for you to use my index list and just delete the coupon you don't have, so basickly I have done the job for you), to see if there is different upc and possiblity of stacking for SCer in West, ect...
Now, I want to know what we could do together for year 2012.
