You don't think we have as many GoT fans (as an example) as we have fans of any single game (beyond NS obviously)? Being a fan of a show isn't the same thing as being a TV Buff though, just as playing games alone doesn't exactly make you a 'gamer'.

Because there's a high proportion of gamers in Europeia, as opposed to film and TV buffs I think you vastly underestimate the amount of tv and movie buffs in this region. Unless your metric for movie buff is Rach, in which case no one measures up. We can't all post examinations of Russian films pre-WW2 with deep analysis.

I feel like those are both weak arguments. If a group of people want to discuss a game - be it ToS or something on Steam - then use a private chat group. We don't need a channel _just_ for that. And I know #gaming is used for weekend games planning (or at least I've been told as much); why not simply use #culture for that?
Then the problem with that is that #culture is likely not public. So you got two channels that could do the same things, except weirdly can't.
Well, discussing games in general would not be appropriate content in Culture's channel, and I assume those that plan weekend games are in Culture so they should have access to #culture already. - Quote:

Going forward, I think the best move is to just be very misery about approving new channels
Emphasis mine. Freudian slip?
But weren't you the guy that was talking about buying which gifts for wedding guests in #culture?

I think you vastly underestimate the amount of tv and movie buffs in this region. Unless your metric for movie buff is Rach, in which case no one measures up. We can't all post examinations of Russian films pre-WW2 with deep analysis.  How many deep conversations about movies are we having? Whereas we're actually having and have had plenty of gaming and game discussions. Unless someone posts a movie review in their private newspaper, which hasn't been that common, we don't talk movies much here.
