The creation of new subdivisions within the Pick A Card section doesn't really work?
Look at the number of posts for The Workers, compared with any of the other categories. It seems clear that people who like card magic (and there's lost of us) aren't interested in having the subject subdivided, and clearly aren't that keen on going to half-a-dozen sections to discuss their favorite subject whereas before it was only one. |

I like the different sections. All of the card stuff is in one area. I find it easier to navigate. I don't understand your complaint.

I agree with the complaint. I too find the new subdivisions less practical than before. You have to go on multiple forums in order to check if a new subject has come up. That is for card and money magic sections. I liked to be able to see what happened in the card section in one overview, and I am missing things (like false shuffles discussions that happens in the mem-deck section, which I don't visit on a regular basis, and s.o.)
I like the unique "pick a card" forum better. Well, It is not a big deal. But I find that some posts are misplaced because of this complexity, and I guess it generates more work for the moderators to move them in the right place. So... |

I like them being divided...easier to sort thru. As far as Jonathans mention of fals shuffles in mem deck section, what if I do not do mem deck and only want false shuffles? Think that is what the Search feature is for. Each to his own though....

The one thing that I've learned from experience during the past five years is that no matter what decisions I make here on the Café, I'm sure to ruffle a few feathers. For that I sincerely apologize. It is unfortunate, but I can't please everyone.
The card and coin sections were divided into small sub-forums for a variety of reasons and were destined to be from the very begining. For example, the category Carnival of Fun was originally one forum. However, it became clear that sub-forums would benefit the folks who have interest in such things, and so it has. The card and coin forums are no exception to this thinking. Many of the seasoned professionals who now post in the new The Workers forum are very thankful that I split the card forum into multiple areas. The professionals can now read thru more serious posts while the youngsters can discuss the latest multi-colored Bicycle deck in the Gaffed & Funky forum. This seems to work out for all concerned and makes finding your particular area of interest a little easier for most users. Finally, as magicmind pointed out, there is ALWAYS our famous Search Engine. I sincerely hope this helps everyone understand why the category was divided and I thank you for your input.
