Yeah.  AT subdomain and euro subdomain.  That's silly.

We can't even agree on a name for these domains.  It's cutting against
the grain.  You're trying to make a distinction where no distinction
is possible.  "Theme Driven" and "Strategy" - those are horrible
names.  They don't convey AT and euro... in fact, I contend we
shouldn't even have subdomains about such things!  They are
artifiicial, archaic, and arcane distinctions that don't really fit
gaming or gamers, even if they ever did.

Here's a compromise/solution, which of course will please no one and
not even be considered or accepted like all great compromises in our
time;

One forum for gamer gamers - serious complex games that don't clearly
fall in another subdomain.  Call it "strategy games" because these are
games that require you to have a serious strategy to win.  AT games
are like that.  Euros are like that.  All their confusing hybrid
children are like that.  Just think about it.

Meanwhile, we can have other subdomains for clearly identifiable
groups.  Wargames.  Children's Games.  Party Games.  Abstract Games...
and so on.

But this attempt to build a subdomains for AT and euro is never going
to work.  We can't even pick names people like... that ought to be the
first clue.
