Advents Thread Query

Hello
Is it possible that the advents comps have at least 2 different threads - one for web entry and one for social media entries.  A bit like we currently differentiate between postal comps and "normal" non-postal on the general comps board.
Is this possible, does anyone agree, or disagree? Is it something we could achive this year?
Thanks
Ms Choc

     I agree. I don't enter social media posts because I only have 1 account on instagram and Facebook and don't want to annoy my friends.

    This could maybe be something you could mention here or here? There has been discussion about adding the option of tags to threads so that it is easier to filter out the competitions you're not interested in (like the ones on social media). So I'm sure it would be a possibility for Advents too
