Why No Eureka?

[Col. Newman]

There are

• 3 dead shows
• 1 half dead franchise
• One teen soap
• a British fantasy series that borders on scifi (ooow that's going to attract an angry mob)
• 2 Dramas with some scifi in them (I'm not nocking them but, only one of them should be on the main index page)
• and a show about super heroes (a really good show BTW)

Where the heck is Eureka? and why are all these dang sub forums cluttering up the index page?

Oya Vai, personally I Love the new scifi stream sub-forum sections, great job Darren!.

To quote Mick, "You can't always get what you want".

[The Signal]

"But if you try sometimes you might find you get what you need" so it can't hurt to ask

Does Eureka fit the chriteria? Is it covered on Sci-fi Stream? Does Darren watch it? If no to any of those, there's your reason.

Oh, and I'll ignore the DW comment, you're entitled to be wrong

[Darren]

Eureka coming soon.

[Trek_Girl42]

Eureka coming soon.

Yay!

*tries really hard to ignore DW comment*

What's wrong with Doctor who? Or Star Trek? Smallville. Lost. What is the problem? I just want to know. Thank you if you answer.

Glad to hear Eureka is coming on board. It's the best think Scifi has come up with since Stargate Atlantis.

Please tell me you're kidding. Eureka has one thread that doesn't get a lot of activity even after an ep has aired; what the hell would be the point of giving it an entire folder? Just to show everyone how meager the interest is? To flaunt it in the faces of fans whose shows don't have folders? To make it easier for all the Eureka bashers to attack the show with wonderfully erudite commentary like "This show sucks!!"?

How about creating folders for shows that have more than a dozen fans on Gateworld? I love Eureka, but giving it a whole folder to itself seems a little extreme.

Eureka plans delayed for the time being.

Once again, whether or not a series gets a subfolder here is NOT dependent upon how much activity that show sees right now in the General Sci-Fi folder. It's a factor, but far from the deciding factor.

So what is the "deciding factor"? And what are the contributing factors, since the original criteria no longer seem to apply?

why does it matter if he wants to expand the scifi stream section it's his decisions.

I'l like to see a eureka folder

a British fantasy series that borders on scifi

Them there's fighting words.

It's handy to know what the criteria are so that if you want Show X to have a folder you'll know whether or not it's worth asking about it. It also helps when fans of Show Z pitch a hissy fit over their show not having a folder when Show A- which is a crapfest and has almost no fans- has one; you can explain it to them without involving the mods. Unless they're particularly pissy and disinclined to listen to reason.

I'm also just generally curious about what a show needs in order to get its own folder. That way even if I'm one of the ones getting pissed off, at least I'll know why the world is being so unfair.

[Skydiver]

you missed the most obvious reason...we don't have an eureka folder cause you want one...and the whole purpose of our forum is to vex you, and vex you mightily

Doctor Who is set in space occasionally, therefore its a scifi. Maybe you should pay more attention when you watch it and you might pick up that he travels around in a space-ship time travel type machine.
