what about a getting there part where movies that have been looked at and people tried but no success and are getting close it would allow you to weed the older posts out and still let people see what people guess with no success thats my suggestion

As films are solved (and after the OP hopefully acknowledges) they are moved to the Solved sub-board.  Films that go for a long time without a solution are moved to the Unsolved Archives.  I do need to do some housekeeping there, but that is the current system - and I am afraid that I believe it is already complex enough.

Andrew, it appears to me which the child board tip sounds like the most dependable option to maintain some kind of easily searchable variety of both resolves as well as unsolved queries.
Marking the subject line would still allow older, unsolved threads to fall away of view.  I'm presuming which each user can move their particular threads from a deck to some other?  Or perhaps, is this anything the mods/you would have to do?

Unfortunately, until someone has a fair number of posts they cannot modify their posts.  It turned out to be a favorite tactic for spammers - create an innocent post, leave it for a while (even months) and then go back to edit it to add spam links.  I was not able to find a function or mod for the forum that helped mitigate that.

Doing quite a bit of housekeeping to this part of the forum, moving solved threads to solved and unsolved ones to the unsolved archives, is on my list of things to do.  Not going to happen until at least August based on my current duties, but I do try to work through ten or twenty now and then just to make some headway.

I have no clue what that guy is even talking about. 

And isn't a 0 out of 0 the highest possible score somebody could get according to your scale? 

If it was 0 out of 10 or something, that might actually be a bad thing.

Neither do I.  :question:

I was going to see if I could find something and then I thought, nahh, why bother.

Hey guys, I am new here but just wanted to ask if anyone knows what was the name of one movie. I can tell you the plot and perhaps some of you may help by recognizing the movie by the description:
The plot to me is a bit blurry since I watched it over 4 years ago, but it`s about 2 guys and 2 girls who fight off some bad guys on what I believe is either an island or a laguna or somethint tropical. of course everything makes no sense and my dead dog could act better, but whatever... So I can`t remember what the guys looked like, all I know is that they were buff and the girls were some hotties with big boobs, one had brown hair and the other had blond hair. I believe the blonde took care of bad guys by some RC cars or something and the other I can`t remember. By the fashion in the movie I would say it was shot between the 80s and 90s although it might be in like 2000 or something like that. I can even help with the two words of the title, for which I cannot guarantee it`s true, but I think it starts with "Welcome to..." the rest might be the name of the laguna or island, but once again, I`m not sure. If someone could help me I`d appreciate it very much, sorry if there were spelling mistakes, I am not a native speaker of English.

Look up HARD TICKET TO HAWAII.  It might be what you're looking for even if it doesn't start with WELCOME TO..  ..And just for your information, this thread here is about questions and concerns and whatnot with the "What Was That Film" thread.  You'll want to post actual WWTF queries on the original What Was That Film?  Thread.
