As I sat building a page for one new card set, and contemplated the need to build and update several others, the thought struck me that most of us spend 90% of our time on this site in the forums area, not surfing the checklists.
So, why not put the checklists in as a forum, with each checklist being a post? This would allow the checklist itself to be an attachment, and would allow for more direct commenting about the set as people post replies? Possibly restricting replies to posts in this forum to more senior users who have demonstrated that they know not to post 'trade me' posts in an area meant to be informative? It wouldn't quite be Wiki like, but it would be a different approach to the checklists.
I like the checklists separate from the forum area. I do like the idea of being able to make comments on each set, but would it be worth the administrative nightmare of permissions and/or monitoring the posts for relevance?

I like it just the way it is, very easy to locate a set. If anything I think putting the checklists in the forum would make it harder to find the information we need.

Yeah...I agree with the majority, I like going to one area for all of the checklists as well. But on a positive note, It's worth mentioning that you have done a heck of a job keeping this site updated with current releases & related card information. Thanks Alot!!
