The initial discussion that lead to the mods to consider fixing the game room happened in September. People prodded for responses in the subsequent months, and we finally [received notice](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=742313) that an announcement would be made “soon” - that was almost two months ago.

I don’t want to sound ungrateful that something that the gears are actually in motion on this issue, but the game room gets strangled a little bit more every day and at some point it’s probably not going to be able to be rescued.

Could we get some action on this issue, or at least an announcement of what’s planned and what the timetable is?

Leave the [GAMES] in the Game Room… just allow threads on sports in other forums.
