Wouldn't a group thread count under the mingling thread? I read that as being IN one, but it occurs to me you might have meant "posting one".
I'm really concerned about AC being watered down to the point where it's still trivial to make it. (I went on a much longer rant lower down in the post on this.)
That being said, and admittedly tangentially... I'm worried about closed or semi-closed posts being used to meet AC. The more of those we see, the more shut-out everyone who doesn't plan or meet an arbitrary criteria thread in that post is. If we're really trying to get more open posting, then allowing people to just knock out a private two-person post for AC purposes defeats that point.
Uh, it's kind of awkward to be saying this directly considering your detective post is what got me thinking on this, so please don't think I'm trying to single you out.
