Advent sub-board

Any support for an annual advent sub-board?
It would allow sorting and searching (if searching is fixed by then) of the advent comps seperately from competitions on the main board and keep the main board clear of daily bumps whilst allowing a simple search on the main board to cover the main board and sub boards or an advanced search to just cover the main board and exclude results from the sub boards.

I'm sure this must have come up before but for whatever reason was never implemented ... presumably because the forum team / tech people said no?0

Every year people don't/wont add advents from main to the thread, so expecting them to put them on a sub board would be a nightmare, plus more work for bg's having to move them.
Nice idea if everyone played ball.

Most people enter advents direct from the posts on the main forum just like every other competition - the last compilation thread was thanked just under 130 times while there were individual advents with 600 plus thanks so not having them on the main board would potentially be a disadvantage to most users.
If they were stuck on a sub-board rather like the daily's are so the main post is on the normal board and the sub-board is just an extra resource for those who want it then it would not matter.0 -
Even though this thread with a list of £100 plus Advents was in chat corner where it will have been seen by far fewer people than a post on the main board it still got 63 thanks

something like this as a temporary sticky on main might make it easier for some to pick through the dross* for the good stuff.
