I don't think it will attract traffic to open up a thread for every different genre. As I said, it will occupy too much space with handful of posters. It's better to have a one thread to have a discussion.
@cynic well the thing is that in the general chat about the awards, there’s no space for genre specific debate, it’s too cluttered. And having one month to listen doesn’t mean we shouldn’t also talk, does it ?
