To be honest, I thought we were going for Games rather than Gaming

[Kevin S]

This might work out ok, but I had assumed we were going to create a board for general 'fun and games' to go in, including things like the chess thread, the Xpert Eleven thread, the crossword thread and all the fantasy games. If we limit it to 'Gaming' it might be a bit of one-thread town?

[Crusoe]

Huh, I can't retitle the other thread to be more specific.

[Snake Plissken]

I'll rename it this evening. If someone can suggest some description text it would save my tired old brain a job.

[ursus arctos]

How about something like "Games, pastimes, and diversions. Analog and digital. Home to some of the forum's most venerable threads"

[Ginger Yellow]

"Voted most likely to break the forum database"

[Kevin S]

*approved*

[Guy Profumo]

Wouldn't "Games" be more susceptible to "mission creep" from the crossword weirdos?

[Wouter D]

They wouldn't dare to show themselves on the turf of the X11 crew.

[Toby Gymshorts]

How about "Because your crippling addiction to an Internet messageboard wasn't complete without another opportunity to demonstrate your social inadequacy"?

[Lang Spoon]

You'll have the chess club on your case now, Toby. Tasty crew, some real geezers in there.

[Wouter D]

Oh shit yeah, you don't want Chess Club up in your grill.

No definite article, please. We're quite partial to our alliteration.

[Lang Spoon]

CC Casuals, hated but rated.

[Toby Gymshorts]

F those nerds.

[Sam]

For God's sake, Wouter, what did we all agree is the FIRST RULE of Chess Club?!

[Toby Gymshorts]

"No girls"?

[Wouter D]

For God's sake, Wouter, what did we all agree is the FIRST RULE of Chess Club?!

No Tobies. We can have only one.

[Toby Gymshorts]

That's probably a very sensible rule.

[Kevin S]

Snake, what's the best way to request thread moves to here?

[Snake Plissken]

Best way is to PM me.

[Kevin S]

Guzman. Will have a think and a look.

[Levin]

There were a couple of board game threads weren't there?

[Kevin S]

Yes, probably worth having a look for them.

I'm guessing that very dormant threads can be left in peace. No need to drag 'Fantasy Premier League 2012-13' (etc) over here for example.

Sean's prediction competition is a rolling game thread though I think.

[Antepli Ejderha]

Draft fantasy league that Kev set up and last season's fantasy premier league could also be moved.

[Kevin S]

PM for Snake - I've suggested 11 thread moves.

- last season's OTFL
- last season's fantasy NBA
- last season's draft fantasy premier
- last season's regular fantasy premier
- last season's betting thread
- the monster version of the X11 thread (can the two be merged sensibly?)
- the OTF Prediction Competition

and some old threads about games to add a bit of bulk:
- favourite board games (Snake, I've put this one's link twice in the message, sorry)
- Subbuteo or one of the others
- games you love
- games you hate

[Patrick Thistle]

Oh wow. We're on to a second forum page.
