  Wayne's post and others like it, https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1150409
brings to mind an idea that briefly visited my headspace some time ago:

A type of reverse want list. That is, a way that sellers could peruse the current
want lists to specific buyer's needs, to then as a seller, proactively engage
members like Wayne with offers on items they have on their want list.

Kinda like amping-up the want list and selling process, by getting the sellers
more involved in increasing their sales by actually selling

It's just a rough draft of an idea. Limitations, restriction and other refinements
of the idea, expected.

But hey, BL shot-callers, it speaks directly to upping the sales numbers!

As long as I could opt out of it, I would be all for it. I don't need sellers
spamming me with offers of things on my want list.

Cheers,
Randy

Sadly, "coming soon" has a different meaning to BL:

In the Game category, there should be sub-categories, like 'Bionicle'
and 'LEGO Games', but I think they would add it anyway if someone used
the 'Add or Change' feature and set it up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  In searching through the categories for Lego sets, I could not find one that
included Lego games. Over the years Lego has produced many games: chess sets,
mazes, Heroica, etc. Is this omission an oversight or is it because there is
little market for used game sets? In either case, I felt disappointed in the
absence of such a category.

I've always followed a couple of rules that at some point i have read on
these forums:
If you can't find a set - check "Gear"
If you can't find a part - check "Fabuland"

Sets that look like sets, but aren't, are usually gear.

I voted NO. It's already there under main category 'Gear'.
