Comment on [META] What is the final verdict and current status of game/post-game thread bot runtimes?

The college football group has been doing one game thread, for watching and post game discussion. Especially in the regular season, I think this is the right call. Monday night games that aren’t on national TV are going to get low to no engagement anyway. Splitting that discussion up to 2 threads will fracture the small discussion.
For the playoffs, I could see us wanting to split it up to game and post-game threads.
I would say I don’t like the idea of doing game threads as chat only on other services. I want more in-depth discussion, and making us go to a real time chat system will make any real effort drowned out by the low quality chats of “Wow” or “That’s Traveling.”
