Did the traditional games music thread ever get made?

I don't want to dismiss it out of hand, but it sounds like an uphill battle. It's the kind of thing people do not want to admit to knowing a lot about. So I predict the majority of posts would just be mocking the handful of users who "revealed their power level" by writing an informative OP or trying to have a constructive discussion.

We're not exactly a rated-PG forum so I wouldn't say it's totally off limits, but I would caution anyone in such a thread to be aware that the general population of SA's TG subforum takes a Dim View of Problematic Crap, we routinely mock titty models in the terrible minis thread, people got absolutely piled on in the boardgame thread for being fans of a gross boardgame, etc. Simply gleefully posting about how sexy some exploitative game looks isn't going to get an enthusiastic reception.
I'll take a step further and say that the TG subforum reacts this way to any depiction of sex in an RPG. There was a guy who tried to review Bluebeard's Bride in Fatal and Friends and got the same reaction. The thread did not think a game about abuse could be anything but pornography for the players to masturbate to. I can't imagine a game that was pornography for the players to masturbate to would get a better reaction.

I'm running a weekly Dungeons and Dragons club at the middle school where I work, and I was thinking about making a thread for blogging about how it goes so people and be lookey-loos about 11-13 year olds rolling dice and playing pretend. At first I thought that might be something for The Game Room, but having actually looked in there for the first time it doesn't seem appropriate. Would there be interest in a thread like that?

You should post it in the starting a gaming club thread.

I think "Rogue Trader/oldhammer" means the upcoming reprint of the original 1e 40K book, not the RPG by Fantasy Flight.
