Yeah, but what I mean is an automatic system. When I submit an icehouse game, or a piecepack game, I can't say it's part of a game system in the submission page. In fact, there's a "game" entry for the piecepack game system even though it's not a game in itself (Icehouse is at least also a game). It'd be nice if game systems had they're own type of entries in the database, and when people submit a game that is part of the system, it shows as a sub-item from the system.

Jorge, Are you familar with this page?
http://boardgamegeek.com/wiki/Icehouse_Pieces
Seems to me, that between tags, geeklists, and wikipages, BGG offers
everything you'd want. Also the conversation/talk/discussion about the
system could easily take place in a Guild.
