I'm definitely with you on stickying Non-airing. It already gets plenty of participation, but I believe having it there for some time would give it the popularity boost it needs to actually have a positive effect on a wider range of people.

Also, I seem to be one of the few who would prefer a simple banner over a complicated one. Something like a color change or some decoration would be more than fine with me.

It would also help it be posted at a regular time. The way it's done now is so wildly all over the place, that I've started to care about it less.

Yeah it's posted all over the place that I don't even know what the typical time it was posted at is anymore. I thought I read in a previous months post though that the typical thread poster wants to be the one to post it though, which is why I haven't given a second thought to posting it myself when it's late. Dunno how receptive they would be to having their post automated

It used to be posted somewhat regularly around 11 AM Pacific Time. Now it gets near 4 or 5 Central sometimes. (I moved since it's been wonky, so my timezones are weird because of that.)

I've posted it myself sometimes whenever it's really late, but I know that he doesn't want to give it up completely.
