With a new album means new fans. For some of them this might be the very first Coldplay forum they join. I know when I jump into a fan base for the first time I want to talk about the old stuff just as much as the new! Would you mind creating a sub section of the Coldplay that would be dedicated to all of the bands work leading up to Ghost Stories? My suggestion for the name - Oldplay! Even as an established fan it woud be great to have a spot to ramble on about how great AROBTTH and Viva is every once in a while!

And I fixed the countdown. I would believe that everyone see the right countdown now.

Oldplay/Oldplaying is a great idea! And a brilliant name! Would a shortcut between sub-forums be possible? I remember from Coldplaying a drop down menu at the bottom right of the page, I think it was called "forum jump".
edit: oh boy am I stupid, there already are shortcuts! How did I not see this earlier

I remember from Coldplaying a drop down menu at the bottom right of the page, I think it was called "forum jump". Thank you but I must admit that the credit for the name goes to one Mr. Chris Martin who once described X&Y during a pre-release interview as being part oldplay and part boldplay. A quote that I always loved and a pretty good description of X&Y if you ask me.

Here is an idea that I had regarding the a leak or early stream of Ghost stories... If it does leak / stream early perhaps we should create a temporary sub-forum to the Ghost Stories section of the board where people who have heard it can discuss every detail to their heart’s content while not having to worry about spoiling it for those who are waiting and in turn the fans who are waiting to listen on the day of release can continue to speculate in the regular Ghost Stories section without having to worry about reading any spoilers. That way everyone can enjoy their album release experience in the way that they prefer and still have a place to talk about it. If we did have such a sub-forum I would name it… Ghost Spoilers!

Good idea! Although the title should give away anything either, I always click "recent threads" so I never see which forum I'm viewing. However, if it leaks, I won't be able to keep myself from listening :p

Nevertheless I'd spread my spoilyness all over the board :P But it's a good idea though

I have an idea people might like! What about adding a Magic background? The bird and the teal background. Just a thought.

Yes that's a good idea! Why not. I will do that tonight and if you click back in a couple of hours, hopefully it should show.
