I think naming conventions are putting the cart leagues in front of the horse.
I agree with the idea of a Jossverse thread, and if volume within that dictates, spinning off a show thread.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

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

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I think Jossverse is a great idea, with it explicitly being devoted to non-Buffyverse, non-Serenityverse, non-comics Joss media -- so Dr. Horrible fits alongside Dollhouse and any other side projects that come down the pike, until such time as one series is a big breakout hit that deserves its own complete thread.
This to me strikes a middle road between too many limited-interest threads, and giving an easily-identified specific place for discussion about these projects to take place.
I really LIKE this suggestion and will definitely vote for it should I get the chance.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I too like the idea of a Jossverse thread way more than a dedicated Dollhouse thread, at least for now.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Ok, Jossverse it is.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I very much like the idea of an "other lands in Joss's head" thread.
Of course, then I worry about "What if Joss and Tim do a show together? Which thread does it go in?"

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Would it be Jossverse or Whedonverse? It's not the Timverse thread.

We can have them arm-wrestle for the honor.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Would it be Jossverse or Whedonverse?
We've always called it Jossverse.
And I second the arm-wrestling idea for a Joss/Tim show. The show shouldn't get an auto-thread, but any such trial by combat should!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I thought I had heard Whedonverse more often. Google agrees with me, 91,100 to 33,700.
