Separate thread for 'word games' etc - currently in Chat?

'Chat' always has a lot of 'word games' threads in it - currently the first two pages (50 posts) contain 17 separate threads none of which are really 'chat'.

There's no conversation on these threads and I'm wondering if the 'Wordle', Hardle', 'Xordle' etc threads would be better under a separate Topic - maybe Daily Puzzles?

Would also make them easier for regular posters to find.

Good idea! There is chat in them too, people are very supportive in life and in puzzles! But it would make it easier to find, especially when threads fill up and a new one is created.

Happy with this and it would clean up Chat

This is a great idea!

Definitely a good idea. There are quite a few of them now.

I think this is a good idea, it would make the threads much easier to find.

I think some people use the Gaming topic. The note on its says it’s for discussing games and gaming but the title implies just the latter.
didnt there used to be a board called something like ‘fun and games’?

That’s an excellent idea
seems obvious now

Hi there @tamedcomicpoem. Thanks for the feedback. We're always happy to consider new topics if there's enough call for them and it looks like the topic will be well used. We'll keep reading here and see what others think.

Good idea. Also disappear after 30 days.
