A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

I see a consensus that no one seems to want the discussion in BS (me, I'm skimming like a skimming thing in BS because I'm trying not to be spoiled for Battlestar, since I want to watch from the beginning)
I vote for B/A just because it's not getting much use, but I feel confident that it will quickly spin off into it's own thread. Frankly, I think that we're better off creating a new thread, then voting to fold it in if it doesn't get the traffic.

In this I am Vortex.
If someone came to b.org wishing to discuss Dollhouse, I don't think they'd think to look in Minearverse or B&A.

Drop it in the slug. We don't have a responsibility to newcomers to have a thread, just to provide reasonable direction to people looking for it.
I added Dollhouse to the Minearverse slug & description.
When? Just now? I don't think that we've come to a consensus quite yet.
FWIW, I'm good with discussing Dollhouse in Minearverse or doing what Vortex suggested. Boxed Set is also too hard for me to keep up in (I am trying to watch BSG again but the first ep was SO bad! but I'm not quite ready to give it up).
We've hit a bit of a snag here. Logically it belongs in Boxed Set (ahem, or its own thread) before it belongs in B&A or Minearverse, but BS is already full of shows. Again I wonder why, as a Jossy site, we aren't creating a thread for his new show.
Sorry -- I didn't mean to jump the gun, but it seemed to me that both the last time it was discussed (in December) and now, there were a lot more votes for Minearverse. It's currently low traffic, Tim is involved, and people are definitely anti-Boxed Set.
Like Sophia, I seem to remember a consensus (though not a vote) that any time Joss got a new show, it would automatically get a new thread.
Unlike Sophia, I have absolutely no desire or intent to read through old threads to find it. (Although now I'm thinking about doing it, god damn it.)
