    Although tutorials can be posted in the Wiki, that option has been added:).

    Another new option is MMORPG Development as its own forum instead of being lumped together with Upcoming Games.

    I love Ogres Breakfast without many games in it. Other forums can have games because we need a forum solely for off topic fun.

    I voted split, because I have some offline games I'd like to post about but would be bound to be covered up by the randomness of Ogres Breakfast.

    The other option would be to put a link in breakfast to another off-topic area.

    I doubt it would, last post date on the front page of Ogre Breakfast was 5 days ago, sure the forum games will move ahead of it but how would that be any different than an active offline game section, it not like when you post an offline game related thread now it get knocked to the 3rd page in an hour... maybe 5th or 6th thread in a day but it will be on the first page for at least a couple days.

    Got a point there, but it would still be nice to have it in a thread specifically for offline games other than in an anything thread. ^.^

    That's why a subforum option would be nice, it seperates it, but without a major forum change.

    One moderator could be in charge of that one area.

    Yeah I think a subforum or no change would be the best options.

    Been very busy with the Review Directory this week. Thus, the poll can end next week. The new forum will be added at that time as well:).

    If it's offline games, make sure to change the breakfast description to be anything that doesn't fit anywhere else.

    Why not have a forum for forum games only?
