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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

Punishingly Intricate

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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

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.)

Creating a new thread will take a week (for proposal, discussion and vote). Even if we decide to go that route, we need a place to discuss it tonight. For that, I think Minearverse fits the bill.
