[F] Trial Showcasing

Post by energizerspark »

So in the Your Trials section [M] is used to denote a trial that is not a trial, investigation or comedy. Wouldn't it be clearer to use [O] for Other?

Both entail a trial that doesn't fit into the main three categories.

No opinion on it.

Well if a lot of other people think it's a good idea, I don't mind changing it.

I don't think it makes any difference whatsoever.

I agree with BP : neither M nor O are very explicit before one knows their meaning, and once you do know this meaning then Misc is just as clear as Others :-)

M seemed to be pretty obviously "Miscellaneous" to me. I don't think it's worth the trouble, though I see the potential confusion.
