Guys, if you're the first one here for your community, feel free to make an |OT| in hangouts, even if it's not a finished product. Go ahead and make a place where your community can congregate until you get a proper |OT| up.

And, for now at least, ALL |OT|s are going to hangouts.

What about spoiler threads? I noticed there's a Mario Odyssey spoiler thread in the regular gaming forum. Most games are going to end up with an OT and a spoiler thread; these kind of come as a combo.

Was hoping we could keep up the OT as spoiler thread policy but whatever the people want.

Also do our claims from before stick here? I've got a couple of OTs already in the works from before (Justice League and The Last Jedi).

Edit: Also got the Thor: Ragnarok OT done.

Do we need to lay claim to OTs? I want to make one for a podcast I listen to. There never was one on.... my last message board. Can I just go ahead and make it?

If I want to make a thread specifically about socialism with wide ranging discussion - its history, politics, ideologies, etc. - should that be considered an OT thread in hangouts or a thread in etcetera? It would be different from PoliGAF since that's broader and more focused on current events.

edit : just gonna put it in hangouts to be safe

Question for staff: The Art Self Study Thread was originally in regular Off Topic. So does that now go into the Etcetera Hangouts instead?

Thanks!

Are we gonna have a OT for claiming OTs again?

Edit: Thanks for the quick response, Ferny !

Seconding this, I feel like lots of people are going to want to volunteer for these new OTs.

Do all OTs go in hangouts or only ones migrating over, and is this only for offtopic?

Hold up, can I make a Blue Planet II OT and put it in Etc. or should I just call it 'Blue Planet II Discussion Thread'?

Yeah I made the Chicago thread... considering previously it was only somewhat active and there didn't seem to be a discord for it, I wanted to get it up. Apologies if I did it out of line.

FAQ says to find an OT for OT before you do one but I cant find one in gaming so I wait for one to appear or PM a mod?

Hello everyone, first post, I noticed there's still no Star Wars OT yet. I don't know if anybody from the old OT has arrived and I don't want to make a thread out of line (especially since I have no fancy graphics for the first post), should I make it anyway, or are they coming later?

I'm gonna repost/remake some of my TV OTs, but I don't want to post them all at once. Fall TV, Walking Dead, Outlander, Dirk Gently

Should there be a separate Thor 2 The Dark World OT from the MCU OT?

Hi. Due to the 40 image limit I found myself having to split the Anime OT OP into two, but two people posted before I could get the second post. Can I request they be deleted? I'd PM a mod, but I don't see the list of names anywhere.

Question. I had three OTs that never moved to the community. My Halo Lore, Overwatch Lore, and CoD: Zombies OT.

Do I post them in hangout or in regular?

Are OTs supposed to be just for communities that were pmed codes by the admins or can non-verified communities make an OT?

I'm having issues with images as well. Some are working and some aren't. All from imgur.

Yeah I've got a similar question. The old Touhou Community thread on GAF never got moved over to Community, presumably because of how slow it was (we had like, only 30+ pages over three years, and like 2/3rds of those pages were from the first year/first few months).

Would a new Touhou Community thread on this forum need to be made in Hangouts instead?

Is this just for EtcetEra stuff? Would be a bit odd to have OTs for new games in Community/Hangouts, I think? Or I just need to get used to that! Perhaps it actually makes very much sense.
