Make a New Board (or Sub-Board) for Non-Lix Multiplayer Gaming Sessions?

(1/2) > >>

Nessy:
Something that was partially discussed yesterday on Discord and I'm going to pop in here real quick and make a post about it.

It seems that there are a lot of video gaming sessions being scheduled that aren't Lix related such as Ultimate Chicken Horse, Ocarina of Time/Sonic Races, Jackbox, etc. It seems like they are more popular now and have the potential to grow into many more games outside of Lemmings and Lix so I was wondering if it would be more practical now to give them all their own Board or Sub-Board called "Gaming Sessions" or "Non Lix Gaming Sessions" or something along those lines to keep them all in one place.

What do others think?

Flopsy:
I just think it would encourage more people to join in if they had their own sub-board because they would be easier to find and the sub-board would outline that all topics on this board are for people to get involved.

I think the biggest problem is we have the same faces in all the sessions, it would be nice to encourage other people and not send out the message that your face has to fit to be able to join in.

Ryemanni:
I support the idea of a sub-board for this. :)

Simon:
Sensible.

I would even merge this with the Lix multiplayer board. Reason: We don't want clashing schedules across the Lix and the non-Lix board. It should be easy to check whether a date is free.

Maybe even schedule streams there and other community events that aren't strictly multiplayer.

Do you agree on a single board for community events? Or should there be two-three boards for Lix/non-Lix/non-multiplayer-community events?


Habits around community activities change all the time. The board should adapt to it, and we should not be afraid to ditch old board structures.

These weeks, we've had some spontaneous Lix multiplayer scheduled on the fly in IRC (quakenet.org #lix). JayV likes to play shorter sessions, often with only 2-player games, several times per week, far more often than only every 2-3 weeks of the large forum-scheduled sessions.

Forestidia86:
It's a tricky issue since the idea of avoiding clashing schedules sounds good but Lix seems to justify its own multiplayer board, from the kind of project it is as well as from the amount of sessions that exists.
If too much is merged there is the danger, that it gets too crowded and unclear again.
