Extra History: Topic Suggestions!
Added 2016-06-04 03:40:33 +0000 UTCIt's that time again! Time to tell us what you'd like us to cover in a future series of Extra History!
We'll draw one suggestion from our raffle bowl... and find some way to share the results with you, since the Q&A (where we usually do a live drawing) was just last week! The winning suggestion will be added to the list of topics voters can choose for the next Extra History mini-series. If the voters pick your suggestion, your name will be added to the "Sponsor" list for every episode in that mini-series.
You can only submit ONE suggestion, so pick your favorite!

Basically to give ourselves some historical distance and perspective on the topics we're covering. Not to say there aren't amazing historians doing rigorous academic work on more recent decades, but that's not (generally) what we're looking to do!

2016-06-16 07:42:11 +0000 UTCAnd I had some good topics to suggest :( BTW why do you guys want to have topics before 1920? The period after has so many stories which are epic.

2016-06-08 19:04:41 +0000 UTCI love that this is how you make decisions... and also that you told the dice to shove it and made up your own rules in the end.

2016-06-07 05:08:07 +0000 UTCIt's always so hard to pick. I made a list of five and rolled a d10 to decide, and then I thought of a sixth and went with that instead. :P

2016-06-04 07:44:07 +0000 UTCFixed the response issue, I think, but I don't see where it still says $15. It is definitely the $10 reward; it used to be $15, though, so wherever it says that is left over from a previous version.

2016-06-04 03:57:25 +0000 UTCForm says it's no longer accepting responses. Also it says $10 reward in one place, but $15 in another
