Un unsticky thread would be deleted by the time, so it would be the same.
I agree about unstick other threads but speculations are fun to keep.

The curators would transfer the predict-a-thon straight to the DFRC just as the Cold Days one was.  I'm leaving it to knnn since it's his baby, and it's already in the works to happen soon I believe.

Sorry about your GS prediction.  That would have been great to archive, but I believe that predates the genesis of the DFRC.

Yes, but I never understood the DFRC (and I thought we were suggesting unstick it too) because I don't have any support for my theories. Only my gut. In the DFRC explanation say references are too be provided.

My point is that the SG predict-a-thon is being archived in the DFRC.  If you have a post in it, it won't be autodeleted now because nothing in there autodeletes, stickied or no. 

I've archived topics that have no references, they are just preferred.  Topics that invoke invigorating discussion, or have a truly novel without any reference (Like the Lacuna = tooth faerie topic) are a significant part of the contributions there.

Well, I guess that will have to do then.
