Should I post all my puzzles (CE, CS and Samurai) in the subforum "Gattai Puzzles" or will there be subforums for each variant? IMHO the latter would be the best.
I agree with Børge that a single, generic, "Gattai Puzzles" forum is not the best approach. We should not forget that most people will be coming from
sudocue.net, and would immediately feel at home if the forum structure here was similar. Of course, if we don't expect some puzzle types to appear for a while (like Texas Jigsaw Killers, for example), then separate forums for these should not be created up front, but only later (on demand). However, with Børge's presence on the forum, it's clear that we will soon have a good supply of the three puzzle types mentioned above.
However, it's probably easier for Richard to create 3 separate
top-level forums for these, because AFAIK subforum support isn't available for phpBB out of the box, but only after custom mods have been applied. Using top-level forums would also correspond to the approach used on sudocue.net. The generic "Gattai Puzzles" forum could then be removed (after moving any existing topics to the corresponding specific forum, of course).
If we wait too long on this one, the more awkward the transition will be.
Richard, what are your thoughts on this one?P.S. Børge, I also agree with your proposal that Richard should switch the DST option off. Can't see the point of displaying times in UTC + DST instead of just UTC.
