MSU Red Cedar Message BoardMichigan State sports and other general MSU topics. The RCMB has been the No. 1 MSU fan site since it launched in 1995. It is the largest and most active MSU Spartans board on the web. "Please post as if your family were on the other computer."
I propose, given the massive stockpiles of new chedda the board is now generating, that Trevor should implement a new Meltdown system for the board, similar to the DEFCON system used by the military. This could be a simple color and number coded bar at the top of the page, from 5 to 1, just like in WarGames.
MELTCON 5 (green) - No meltdowns in progress or deemed possible in the near future
MELTCON 3 (orange) - Low-level meltdown in progress (similar to the bball team losing to NU / PSU last year) and potential high level meltdown imminent
MELTCON 2 (red) - High-level meltdown in progress (i.e., football team's loss to CMU this year). Potential full-scale meltdown imminent
MELTCON 1 (white) - Servers in danger of exploding from having to process all of the chicken little posts, calls for coaching changes to HR Pufnstuf and Teddy Ruxpin, and use of the term "Same Old Spartans." Utter mayhem ensues - mods cannot control the natives and poop/nudity posts slip through the cracks.
I am guessing if we lose to WMU the board will be in MELTCON 1.
It's very possible to make a chart to dictate how much bitching there will be.
I won't even log on for a few days. I can't handle losing to both CMU and WMU in the same season. I've moved on to basketball season so it most likely won't hit me as hard as CMU. The only way the season is salvaged is if we win out.

The meltdown has been in effect since we lost to CMU. It's been a gradual emission opposed to all out meltdown. If were 7-2 or something and lost to WMU, there'd be hell to pay. But we're 4-5, and if we do lose (highly doubt it), this place will be dead. All that can be said has already been said.

I dunno, the effective loss of bowl eligibility (Ebling put the odds of winning both of the last two games at 25%, and that was assuming we beat Western) might make the meltdown worse than you think.

That's what this thread made me think of

This is Western we are talking about. Not Central. Not Eastern.
Now, a loss to the Eagles of EMU would bring a meltdown of biblical proportions!
Yeah, ask Hawkeye Cheesehead what kind of meltdown comes from getting whipped late season at home by WMU, thereby crushing bowl hopes. He knows all about it!

I won't watch a single minute of the game. Refuse to Allow this teAm to ruin another weekend.
I'll text u when we go with the 3 man front
