Would be funny if the nos were Toady and ThreeToe

[Cheeetar]

What, I am the third person to vote no?

[Okenido]

And why did you vote no?

[Myroc]

I fully support this.

If it was them, they would have flat out told me No rather than using the poll.

I agree that it's crowded, but I see two labeled let's plays active today and one of the fading suns ones.  Were there others?  It wouldn't really make a dent if it's just three out of a couple dozen.  Are there any other categories among the ~20 threads active so far today that are more prominent?

[Heron TSG]

pokemon ruby version, battleships forever, unreal world RPG, and X-com 2 are also recent (and still going) let's plays.

[Okenido]

Sims 2, XCOM, Emperor of the Fading Sun, Space Empires V, Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup, Alpha Centauri, King of Dragon Pass.

o_0 wow speak of the devil.

One of the reasons I suggested this because of crowding, yes, but the main reason was for organization. Not to mention that we're at a trough right now. When I first posted this, LP took up more than half the page.

I was asking about others that were active today because four replies in a row were complaining about crowding.  I can see the labeled ones that are further down.  The other two forum game splits came out of overcrowding at a level that I don't see for the let's plays, although both of those sub-forums have died down a little.

I don't mind making another split, but I was wondering if there was a better one to make, since this wouldn't impact the problem very much, looking at today's active topics.  If the rest of the games are all that different from each other, then I guess I can split let's play off, but I don't think it addresses the crowding problem.  As far as I can tell, these help-me-do-a-text-adventure style group games have more threads active today, but I'm not really sure if that comprises a category or not.

Or maybe I've hit a lull in let's play action or something.

I voted yes; I can't tell if it is, but to me it feels rather crowded. There are a lot of Let's Plays, although not all are extremely active; I still think it would be best to give them a sub-forum of Forum Games.

[major_sephiroth]

I voted yes.

If a subforum for them is created, then surely people would be eager to create more.

I hate to sound no noobly,

But what is a 'Let's Play'?

How do you define one?

[Jack_Bread]

Let's Plays are playing a game for people so they don't have to. Usually, they make a video or just put screenshots.

Might we finish this thread with a proper conclusion?
