Why should the entire board have to cater to you not watching the match until later? Is it that hard to just stay off the board until you watch the game? I'm honestly just wondering because whenever I record a game to watch later I stay the hell away from the Internet and the TV.

That point aside, for the love of God why don't we just have a soccer score board at least for the USMNT games? It would make both sides of this stupid debate happy.

If you're a regular here, you know that USMNT games are usually the one time that the score wouldn't really matter at all in the Match thread title since there will be 100 threads about the match.

However, that's no reason to change what is a fantastic rule on this board.

Given that espn.com and a million other sites update scores even more quickly than posters on TD, it seems such an immense non-issue. I'm always amazed at the debate (and anger even) that it generates.

Not really even close to having a Score Board.

Is it that hard for a Score Board to be opened for the game? They do it for every LSU game

I find it absolutely pointless to discuss something that is just not going to change. We have had this rule for four years, we have Admin approval of it, and the vast majority of us like/understand the rule. It's not going to change, and everyone coming on here crying "put the score in the title" is either (a) useless or (b) trolling, and I don't want either of those to wreck the board.

We will try to accommodate posters who need hand-holding on everything, but we're not changing the rules for a one-month period that comes around every year or so (big US involved/Euro tourneys).
