All,

For those of you who really think this new split is such a no brainer, I can promise you this without any doubt.

If Jurollo, Badger, and I make a thread in the mod forum to talk about this, we are going to need to prove that we have a need for this forum.

Given the extremely low amount of high stakes posts in MTT right now, we are going to get shot down immediately.

So if you really think we need this forum, prove it. Make some posts. Let's see what happens.

I think a case can be made one way or the other quite easily. The fact is that when, for example, MLG or Ansky start a thread in MTTS, it gets over 400 views. In fact, in general, obviously high stakes post always get over 200 views whereas weeny buyin stuff get like 20 views and often no answers.

It wouldn't take much work to calculate how much traffic a HSMTT forum would get. You take a week long period, count the HS posts, see how much traffic they get as a % of the oevrall traffic and then make the case. Naturally, we'd expect this traffic to increase if there was a dedicated forum.
