History of PC gaming?:) Though I wonder if some college professor isn't telling people to post somewhere in the rec.* hierarchy (on the grounds that there's no rec.sex.fiction.startrek.slash.bondage.furries) and people just gravitate towards the first thing in there they've heard of. "rec.arts.*" would be a dud, even though it includes TV stuff, because newbies are going to see it and say "AHHHH! Rembrant discussion!" and go running. "rec.games.*" probably looks good to them. They know Parcheesi, they know Monopoly.... Though if I find out that it's just one professor telling the n3wbz to post in r.g.c.d.*, someone's gonna get a BFG shoved where it hurts.
