Pretty sure I'm a combination of the first four options.  But I use the the links under the banner most often.

I press random keys in the URL bar and it always drives me to a random topic from this message board. Sorcery.

The feeling of being a world champion is intoxicating, and I didn't want to ever not be the world champion again. Then I realized it didn't matter that much since I had nothing more to prove and achieved my most important goal(s).

Some combination of the Back function, the Home button, and clicking on the sub-forum image if there's new unreads. Sometimes click directly into a thread from Home if it's a topic I know I'm interested in/following. This certainly isn't an optimal strat, but it's not terribly slow and it's a completely ingrained habit to navigate like this at this point.

Well, it would be like rolling a die and it landing tails every time. After every roll the chance of it being tails becomes less and less, because eventually it will land on heads.

I used to do that, but it was too slow. Now I just sit in the homepage and middle-click the threads/sections I’m interested in.

My "strat" goes this way, more or less:

Click into Latest Thread from Forum Homepage then back out of that

I also discovered, thanks to this thread, that we could click on the game boxes. Embarrassed

Combination of 2nd and 4th, like some of you. The clickable images are irrelevant, but I have to admit, the links at the top are the most effective way to switch between sections, why the fuck did I never do that...

I always scroll back to the top, can choose another section or a players' page.

I start out on the main board list, then CTRL+click each section marked with a star that I am interested in reading.

Then in each section I CTRL+click the star icon on each topic I wish to resume reading. And CTRL+w each one as I finish it.

Thanks to my suggestion to AlexPenev1 around 2010 for the links at the top, which I ripped off from another message board.
